The Fastest Way to Lose Weight
There is a little ice cream shop in Chattanooga, TN. This shop makes their own ice cream, and they serve a Pralines and Cream that is out of this world. This is not the fastest way to lose weight! The problem most people have involves what they eat, and the food they eat is a product of the way they were raised and their habits. Add to these eating patterns the emotional ties many people have to their food and you have a formidable opponent. Then there is that whole theory of relativity thing. The 15 minutes that elapse while we annihilate our favorite food seems like a few seconds compared to 15 minutes on the treadmill.
