Did you want to quickly lose your excess weight? Did you try the new miracle diet you read about in the magazine, recommended by your friend or whispered to you by your best buddy, and ultimately `failed` again? Didn't lose a gram or lost what you lost and gained it back, along with guilt, remorse, and the necessary `interest` of extra pounds? Unfortunately, you still haven't realized that what `piled up` on you over months and years cannot go away in just a few days. It's the circumstances, the stress, the water, the genes, anything that can serve as an excuse to justify the unjustifiable. If you want it, excuses are found, reasons are invented... But admit it: Excess weight is annoying, and you would give anything to get rid of it. So if you can't tolerate this situation any longer, if you can no longer bear the looks of pity and sympathy and want to improve your life, take matters into your own hands and act, whether you want to lose 5 or 55 pounds. There is a way, but there are no secrets. You will have to say no to extremist diets, to `secrets` (which you have to pay to learn), to deprivation, to hunger, to the anxiety and terror of the scale that sticks to the right and stubbornly refuses to move to the left. We will suggest some simple, user-friendly, and effective tips for better nutrition and teach you how to design your own dietary programs so you don't need anyone! So make a fresh start, study our suggestions and apply those that suit you. Follow your own personalized nutrition program, combine it if you want with regular exercise, and get rid of excess fat without paying a fortune to slimming institutes.
