OLEDA TALKS….On Beauty, Health, Anti-Aging
Here you are – beautiful and healthy… and young. You have so much going for you…life is great. You may have put on a few pounds… that’s all. The danger of poor health and how it affects you for your lifetime is the furthest thing from your mind. You are young and healthy… and beautiful….. why should you think about it NOW?
STOP
Stop right now! NOW is exactly the right time, while you’re still young enough to give your weight and health serious thought. The Baby Boomers just ahead of you are having a difficult time now…many did not think ahead and just slipped into “overweight” – next will be poorer health because of it, if they don’t change their ways quickly.
New research shows that the Baby Boomers, now having reached their 60’s, will not benefit from the promise of a longer, healthier life span provided by advances in medical science. They are heading for many unnecessary aches, pains, and unnecessary health problems, not to mention the possibility of huge medical bills.
LOOK
Look all around you. …watch what’s happening to so many overweight people in this country. This in itself should send you spinning to take care of yourself. Look at the serious surgeries people must UNDO that were caused by overeating and poor nutrition. Look at their bad knees, joint problems, the medications they must take; and many other ills. Look at the money they are forced to spend that they could have stashed away.
LISTEN
Listen to a few “rules” on how you really can stay youthful, beautiful and healthy throughout your lifetime.
Just Eat Less, Gimmicky Diets Don’t Work. There are at least 35 diet books on the market this minute that promise you will lose weight if you buy their book. Each book has a different gimmick….Forget it….all you have to do is A) eat less B) eat healthy C) make sure you burn energy in some way. It can be anything from walking to a sports activity—anything that gets your body moving.
Long ago I was asked by a leading publisher to write a diet book. I snapped back and asked if they could sell a diet book with one page: “Just eat less, eat healthy and don’t drink soda pop.” No, they did not offer a contract to me J.
Using safe diet pills, or a nutritional diet drink, or even an appetite suppressant can HELP, but they can only assist the program; they can’t do the whole job.
Until next time,
Love, Oleda
