Paid To Lose Weight
A rant on weight loss programs.
Thirdly, psychological research has shown that after 3 months (12 weeks!), people begin to lose motivation in a diet and exercise program. So this program will only lead people to the “feel good” stage, they’ll start to see some results and feel better about themselves- then they will finish the program. Their motivation will wane, they will lose impetus and all the good work and beneficial diet and exercise changes they will make will be forgotten. They will go back to old habits- and lo and behold, the weight will come back on. After 12 months, they can receive another $200 incentive to go back on the weight loss program and the yo- yo cycle begins again. Research has shown the effects of yo-yo dieting on the body can be more detrimental than obesity itself.
