Okay boys and girls, enough is enough! You’ve downloaded a couple of dozen e-books, spent money on a CD course or three and joined your local gym. Now you’re complaining because you’re still flabby and overweight. Guess what? That’s because you don’t get fit by spending money: You get fit by working out!
Guys, does this sound like you? You bought a ‘killer abs’ e-book and printed it out so you could have it by your side when you put it into practice. That was six months ago and the only real physical activity you’ve gotten out of it was when you pushed a staple through the pages. That was so exhausting that you had to take a break and sit down and read some erotic comics.
Girls – what about that aerobics workout DVD you paid so much for. You waited in breathless anticipation until it came in the mail. Then you pulled out the DVD, popped it in the machine and sat down with a no calorie soft drink and watched it. The next day, you decided to watch it once more while you stuck some pictures in your Disney scrapbook. You haven’t seen it since.
As for that gym membership – they must love you there! You just pay them a bunch of money every month and maybe go in for a half-hearted warm-up on the exercise bike before you decide that you’re feeling a little run-down and better come back tomorrow.
They love you at the gym because like so many of their other members, you pay them for a service you never use. Your loss is their gain. You don’t cost them a dime, but continue to pay them big bucks for your gym membership.
What you do with your body is nobody’s business but yours. Just keep it that way, okay? Stop whining about how nothing you’ve tried works. It doesn’t work if you don’t use it. You don’t lose weight by thinking about it and you don’t get strong by going to a personal massager. You do that after you’ve had a good weight training session and have earned a good massage. What ever made you think that having your flab massaged would make it go away?
Do whatever you want, but just stop whining about how nothing works! Shut up and go back to your comics and your scrapbooks or get out there and get fit. It’s up to you!
