You want to lose weight but still eat whatever you want and
not exercise???? Well, it could be as easy as a trip to Mexico and eating the
worm. If you haven’t heard the premise
behind the tapeworm diet it’s pretty simple. You visit a friendly clinic down
south, swallow a tapeworm cyst which hangs out in your digestive tract and
essentially the worm eats what you eat, but the worm gets fatter, you don’t.
After you lose the desired weight you take a pill that kills the worm. Never
mind that one of the side effects could be a super sexy swollen stomach and not
to mention death (it’s illegal in the US).
The tapeworm diet is extreme but it does point out an issue
with even more mainstream diet fads. We rely on quick fixes and miracle pills
to achieve our dream physique, thinking we ‘cheated’ the system, and not
needing to work hard. The truth is that to lose and maintain a healthy weight
you must commit to a healthier lifestyle. Eat more fruits/vegetables, eat sensible
portions, and avoid the obvious junk foods. It doesn’t get simpler than that.
But on the subject of fad diets has anyone heard/tried any
of these?
