Sawbones 010: Weight Loss Published on August 30th, 2013 Listen here at TheMcElroy.family Intro (Clint McElroy): Sawbones is a show about medical history, and nothing the hosts say should be taken as medical advice or opinion.

Sydnee: Aw, honey, I think you look great. I don‘t—I don‘t— Justin: Thank you, dear. Sydnee: I don‘t think you‘ve put on any weight. Justin: It‘s true, I—[gargling]—I—just a half pound or so the last week, but I really, really feel... uh, I feel really hefty. Sydnee: Did you put that... weight on in your vocal cords?

These next few paragraphs may shed some light as to why these weight loss strategies might not produce the desired results. A summary of the diets plans reviewed in this article can be found in Table 1. Much of this information is derived from an informative review written for Everyday Health by Debbie Strong (http:// www.everydayhealth.com/food/the-10-most-famous-fad-diets-of-all-time.aspx).1 I would also like to comment on the pitfalls of current weight loss drugs, summarized in Table 2, which have failed to gain traction due to limited efficacy and unwanted or life-threatening side effects.

Ketogenic Diet and Fertility
Winter 2019 Ketogenic Diet and Fertility The last few decades different approaches have been advanced to address medical epidemics such as obesity, diabetes, and for women in reproductive age, polycystic ovaries syndrome (PCOS) and its cause of infertility. One of the most common measure is a diet. In the recent past almost every year a new diet is introduced, frequently sponsored by a celebrity with popular appeal that endorses it. Beside the ﬁnancial principle, there are two reasons for the frequency in the introduction of these diets. One, there is a great need for them and second they do not work!

CHAPTER EIGHT: Reduce Yourself
CHAPTER EIGHT: Reduce Yourself “People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity, no matter how impressive their other talents.” Andrew Carnegie The time-tested strategies of losing weight Since the year 2000 Americans have spent more than 119 billion dollars (yes billion) annually on obesity-related medical costs. Each year over 40 billion dollars are spent by the weight loss industry on marketing. At last count, there are over 25,000 books related to weight loss and many of them offer contradictory information. Google the word ‘diet” and you will get over 160 million responses. There are so many books, clinics, and programs available, yet less than 10 percent of the people trying to lose weight have long-term success on any diet plan. As a fitness professional, I have been my own guinea pig and personally tried many of the popular diet plans myself. I have a fairly regimented dietary protocol so it is always interesting to see how a particular eating plan or nutritional philosophy will affect me (my weight, energy levels, mood, productivity, etc.). As a personal trainer over the past 12 years, I have witnessed my clients try every conceivable weight loss program…The South Beach Diet, Atkins, Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, medical weight loss programs, even something called the “Cookie Diet.” You name it and chances are, I’ve tried it or have seen someone try it and monitored the results. The bottom line from my personal experience and that of my clients is this: to lose weight you must have an effective system for governing caloric intake, you must have a daily nutritional plan, and you must increase your physical activity.
