Look No Further For A Free Weight Loss Plan. Top Weight Loss Tips And Advice Including Diabetes Weight Loss

Most people in the US need to lose weight. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2006 at least 20% of the population of the US could be considered obese based on their Body Mass Index. In some states, especially in the Midwest, that number was closer to 30%.

The US is getting fatter, but the experts can't seem to find out why. There's a lot of blame put on the American diet, and the vast amounts of fast food that Americans eat but is that really the reason that so many Americans are overweight or obese? It's hard to pinpoint just one cause.

If you feel guilty as you read this introduction, then you could probably benefit from reading this book. Forget the fad diets with their high costs. Discover the common sense way to lose weight and keep it off!
