Don't Gamble With Cancer...Lose Weight!

By Henry John

Despite the fact that there have been some amazing breakthroughs in the treatment of cancer in recent times, it is still a subject that many people find difficult to talk about. Even the use of the word 'cancer' is avoided: phrases like 'the big C' are used in preference.

Professor Martin Wiseman of the World Cancer Research Fund said: 'Cancer is not a fate, it is a matter of risk, and you can adjust those risks by the way you behave'. We should be concentrating not on the emotional issues of cancer, but on its prevention.

It is a sad fact that too few of us make the link between behavior and the disease. For example, the link between obesity, or being overweight and cancer is well known - there are six cancers that are linked to excess body fat - but we are in the middle of a worldwide obesity crisis.

'The bill always has to be paid sometime'. This is something we forget all too often. We ignore 'cause and effect'. There is already an increase in the number of weight related cancers.

There is a very urgent need for all overweight and obese people to lose weight if they are to reduce the likelihood of developing cancer, but what to do? Diets do not deliver permanent weight loss, they deliver short-term weight loss. Most overweight or obese people are caught in a never ending cycle of diets which do nothing to reduce their weight permanently and make them miserable in the process.

Surely there has to be an answer? The answer lies in not going on a diet, but by changing your behavior. If you continue doing the same thing and never make fundamental change you will always remain the same. No diet ever produces change.

Recognizing the bad habits that make you fat is the very first thing that has to happen This is followed by learning new habits, new slim habits.

Learning new slim habits helps you to change your eating and lifestyle habits. Habits can't be changed so you have to learn new habits to take their place. It is these bad habits that have caused you to be overweight in the first place. Change them and you will be able to achieve permanent weight loss and live a slim, disease free life.
