Feb. 7 has come and gone — and that’s a good thing. According to Psychology Today, this is the day that most of us are likely to ditch our New Year’s resolution to diet and exercise as we lose our “willpower” not to eat that piece of cake or skip that workout.
There has to be a better way to lose weight. In fact, there is — it’s just not the quick and easy fix we all seem to crave.
As cardiologist Dr. Christopher Labos pointed out in a recent Gazette article (Opinion, Dec. 30. “Stop worrying about what you eat: substituting one food group for another is a no-win game”), diets don’t work and neither does substituting one food group for another. Most of us are overweight, quite simply, because we overeat.
