Compelling Weight Loss Suggestions For Men Over 40

By Edgar Sherman


Weight loss for men over 40 is very important. It is very difficult to lose fat because it is deposited around the midriff and it has the persistence of super glue. If effective steps are not taken it hangs about like an unwanted guest making one less attractive or even repulsive to the opposite sex. As it repels the girls so it attracts unwelcome things like diabetes and heart disease, leading to an early death.

Due to the serious need for males to lose weight there is a rich literature on the subject. In bookshops, clubs and online much advice and many programs offer ways and means. Riffling through all the various options a man will notice that the same suggestions keep coming up. This is useful because it is evident that the most often reiterated remedies must be the important ones that should be applied.

One group of strategies have in common the submission of the individual to a procedure which removes from him most of the responsibility for the desired end. Surgical procedures are perhaps the most obvious of these. Liposuction and stomach reduction seem to be extremely expensive and invasive solutions and are probably most used when things have got badly out of control.

Men who decide to take matters into their own hands must first confront the diet issue. There is little problem in finding out information on this in modern times. Apart from many websites offering advice there is information in almost every packet of food and on the TV. Most people know what they should and should not eat but they are encumbered with eating habits that have been with them for about forty years. The bad habits did not matter when they were younger but require an iron will to break at the age of forty plus.

Exercise is the other essential. Young people have time for exercise but those over forty are often immersed in careers and loaded with domestic responsibilities involving children to be fed and clothed. Probably two hours of good exercise is needed every day but days can come and go in which there is no time at all for exercise. As a body begins to deteriorate the inclination to exercise may fade away and it is easy to slip into sedentary ways.

From such observations it seems apparent that an effective weight loss program requires the adoption of a suitable lifestyle. As far as diet goes one has to convince oneself that a light salad and fish washed down with water is more tasty than french fries and a pork chop smothered in rich sauce. In respect of exercise one has to put time aside for it. In addition strategies such as running up and own stairs at work.

Lifestyle changes are matters of common sense to a large extent but common sense is not always easy to implement, especially when it entails the changing of ingrained habits. Therefore, determination, discipline and will power are essential.

Another strange oddity of human behavior is that the more a person pays for something the greater belief and respect he has for it. Teachers at expensive private schools are treated with great respect but those in completely free schools are complained about and criticized. Similarly if a person invests in an expensive weight loss for men over 40 program he will be more likely to carry it out than he would be if he worked out exactly the same steps for himself without paying a penny.
