Top Ten Reasons To Give Up Dieting
#10: Diets don’t work. Even if you lose weight, you will probably gain it all back
and you might gain back more.
#9: Diets are expensive. If you did not buy special diet products, you could save
enough to get new clothes,
which would improve your outlook right now.
#8: Diets are boring. People on diets talk and think about food and practically
nothing else. There’s a lot
more to life.
#7: Diets don’t necessarily improve your health. Like the weight loss, health
improvement is temporary.
Dieting can actually cause health problems.
#6: Diets don’t make you beautiful. Very few people will ever look like the models.
Glamour is a look, not a
size. You don’t have to be thin to be attractive.
#5: Diets are not sexy. If you want to feel and be more attractive, take care of
your body and your
appearance. Feeling healthy makes you look your best.
#4: Diets can turn into eating disorders. The obsession to be thin can lead to
anorexia, bulimia, bingeing,
and compulsive exercising.
#3: Diets can make you afraid of food. Food nourishes and comforts us, and gives us
pleasure. Dieting
can make food seem like your enemy, and can deprive you of all the positive things
about food.
#2: Diets rob you of energy. If you want to lead a full and active life, you need
good nutrition, and enough
food to meet your body’s needs.
#1: Learning to love and accept yourself just as you are will give you
self-confidence, better health
and a sense of well-being that will last a lifetime.

Mä oon ihan samaa mieltä. Kumpa muutki ihmiset tajuis ettei tarvii olla EIKÄ PIDÄ OLLA laiha et vois olla onnellinen jne. Se tulee jostain ihan muualta. Mut kaikki ne ajatukset on niin ristiriidas,ainaki mun omal kohdal,mä haluisin parantuu ihan mielettömästi,mut sit laihtumisen halu on viel suurempi. Ja parantuminen edellyttää myös painon nousua mikä on kaikist pahinta. Toivottavasti toi teksti saa muitaki ihmisii ajattelemaan omaa terveyttä ja mikä on OIKEESTI terveellistä!
anoreksia on siis mielestäsi DIEETTI? mielenkiintoista.
minä kun olen aina ajattelut sen olevan sairaus. ja sairauksista ei vissiin parannuta ihan tosta vaan naps kun luetaan joku "Top Ten Reasons To Give Up Dieting".
sori. tarkoituksesi oli varmasti hyvä. olisi vaan kiva jos porukat ymmärtäisivät että syömishäiriöissä on useimmiten kyse paljon isommista asioista kuin ulkonäöstä. syömishäiriö on usein vain oire jostain, esim. masennuksesta. tai sen taustalla on muita henkisiä ongelmia. se ei siis todellakaan ole mikään laihdutuskuuri!
Kuten sanoit, tarkoitukseni oli hyvä.
Tiedän kuitenkin että JOTKUT luulevat että laihtuminen ratkaisee ongelmat. "Jos vain olisin laihaa, kaikki olisi hyvää"
En väittänytkään että se olisi joku parannuskeino!
