Weight Loss Scams
Okay, our society is pretty screwed up. The majority of Americans are overweight, but I keep seeing these commercials on TV for various weight loss products and diet pills. I remember, when I was a kid, the testimonials on these types of ads would be from women saying “I went from a size 16 to a 10!” Now it’s “I went from a size 8 to a size 2!” What is wrong with people? I don’t understand the necessity to lose that much weight, it’s not necessary and likely not even healthy!
I’ve been trying to lose some weight myself, but that’s mostly because my family has a tendency to carry their weight around the middle, so even though I don’t wear a large size, my waist measurement is borderline on being a health risk. I’m trying to get healthier and no longer be teetering on the edge of having higher health risks (diabetes and heart disease already run in my family.) So it’s kind of nice to see that there are still sites that have honest reviews of diet pill scams like extreme acai berry, which leech off of people that are trying desperately to lose weight, be it for health reasons or body image issues.
