The statistics of people unhappy with their body weight is staggering, to say the least. Did you know, for instance, that 2 out of 3 adults are considered overweight? Now, most people either can maintain a relatively active lifestyle or healthy eating habits, but it’s actually a steady and sufficient amount of both that create a body that will last a long time. Essentially, our behavior is the leading factor of our health. And what is it that addresses our behavior better than anything? Reward or negative consequences? It’s reward, of course, but most of us only see the negative consequences, and that brings us down. At the same time, those who actually lose a few pounds and then celebrate by going out for dinner… It’s true. Some people honestly reward themselves with the negative behavior that got them there in the first place. Absolute malarky! That’s the same as finding out a drunk at the bar has a sexually transmitted disease, after a night of too many margaritas and celebrating, by going out and getting drunk with the same guy again. You would be asking for trouble that could be easily be avoided.
