Just lose the weight

Some loons are suing the Kardshian sisters because they advocated a weight loss product that didn't make them skinny.

Well, gee whiz whillikers.

Let me say this once and for all: Weight Watchers, SlimFast, Jenny Craig, and everything of that ilk - none of those work by magic.

My program doesn't work by magic.

There is no easy way to lose weight. (And yes, an advertising program that says "weight loss is easy" is lying and you may have grounds to sue them on that account, but please, it's just common sense that it would not be easy.)

The hardest thing to do is control your appetite. There's 24 hours in a day - how can you fill those hours without eating?

Some people can do it easily - they can eat whatever they want and the calories burn right off because they have fast metabolisms.

Women typically have slower metabolisms than men, and our bodies simply consist of more fat than guys - the wider hips, the wider thighs, our breasts, etc.

There is no need to pay the big bucks to Weight Watchers, etc. to lose weight. Just understand the common sense of the situation.

1. Gradually lower your appetite by gradually lowering the amount you eat. Switch snacking late at night from high-calorie snacks to carrots or something of that nature.

2. Don't cut out things you love like cookies with real chocolate, cake with real chocolate, ya da ya da. Just eat smaller portions.

3. Exercise. Weight train 3 days a week - not to become all bulky but to achieve and then maintain a strength that you'll need all your life. In addition, muscles burn calories faster than fat, so the more muscle you have, that's one more portion of food you can eat when you're maintaining your weight.

4. Jog, bike, play tennis. some kind of sport, also at least 3 times a week. Weight training is for getting muscle, jogging, tennis etc. is for cardio, which you also need.

So don't go around suing celebrities for endorsing weight loss products - that you shouldn't even be using to begin with.
Kardashian Sisters Sued over Endorsement of Weight-Loss Products
A New York-based law firm has followed through on a threat to file a class-action lawsuit against Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian over their endorsement of the weight-loss product QuickTrim.

According to E! Online, the firm of Bursor & Fisher has filed the five-million-dollar lawsuit in New York on behalf of four customers who allege they used Quicktrim and did not see the same results touted by the Kardashians. The customers believe the sisters’ weight loss cannot be solely attributed to Quicktrim.

Both Kim and Khloe have claimed they lost 15 pounds using QuickTrim, which is manufactured by the New Jersey-based company Windmill Health Products.

The firm hinted two weeks ago to the New York Post that a lawsuit against the Kardashians, among other defendants, was forthcoming.

So here's at least 4 folks who don't want to have to exercise and want to keep stuffing themselves with food. They're just plain stupid - but than you have to be to be a fan of the Kardashians! Jeez!
