Weight Loss Online: A Tale of Perspectives

If you are searching for tips or information about weight loss online you will find blogs, forums, stores, Facebook pages, Tweets, and articles by the hundreds of thousands. Weight loss is a hot topic for just about everyone these days. According to the CDC 34% of Americans over the age of 20 are “overweight and obese” with the same number, 34%, of Americans listed as just “overweight”. With more people overweight than at their correct weight it is no wonder that weight loss is now an industry—and not only is weight loss an industry but probably one of the largest industries in the United States and western world with billions in yearly revenue. Just look up weight loss online and you will find literally thousands of sites selling weight loss books and diet pills.

Weight Loss Center is one of the best portals for researching weight loss online.

When scouring the web for the quickest and easiest way to lose weight (yes, that’s what we all really deep down want) you will encounter more sites telling you how to lose weight than you can shake a stick at! Each weight loss site has its own perspective on how to lose weight and stay healthy. Some will tell what to eat, others will sell you supplements, and still more hawk exercise videos. Weight Loss Center is one of the sites that I like to look over when doing weight loss research online because it offers multiple approaches, multiple perspectives, multiple voices, multiple tools, and the ability to purchase supplements. It’s a weight loss web portal, or in layman’s terms: it’s a pretty in-depth information library.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: everyone’s body and weight loss issues are different; everyone loses weight in different ways. Some people have a lot of luck with a high protein diet where “fats” are acceptable (bring on the bacon!). Other people can eat pasta until they explode as long as the food is low in fat. Some people can eat anything and everything as long as they work out. This is why you need to consider all perspectives when looking for your perfect diet and try to see which one aligns more closely to your own body type or situation. I could no more eat pasta every day than I could ice cream. They both go to the same place. So, when searching weight loss online be aware that one size does not fit all.
