the number one reason diet plans fail

Apologies for the super-short newsletter today but I just saw this and had to share it with you.

Fitness author Jon Benson sent this out and I thought it was both hilarious and powerful.

Ready?

“A study in Psychosomatic Medicine has confirmed that people tend to consume food in order to self-medicate their feelings of stress or anxiety.

They call it “emotional eating.”

I know… it’s a real shocker. ; )

But this isn’t meant to be cute or light about this diet-wrecker.

This is the number one reason diet- plans fail… I’ve seen it way too many times.

In case you missed it, here’s Jon’s short story about overcoming emotional eating and getting in touch with a better way to make food work for you… not against you…

P.S.  Jon is continuing his fund-raising efforts for St. Jude Children’s Hospital. One week was not long enough.

Ten percent of all book proceeds will go to St. Jude.

Thanks to all of you who have participated!

There’s an old proverb that rings with wit and reason: “Everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die.” So why do we want to live forever? According to Dr. Sanjay Gupta, author of “Chasing Life” and CNN’s Senior Medical Corespondent, we do not.

The real quest isn’t eternal life on earth according to Gupta, but rather an exceptional life.

While interviewing the foremost authorities on anti-aging and life extension, Dr. Gupta discovered three “universals” — three principles that each researcher deemed critical to extending our lives naturally and empowering us to live exceptionally. They are:

1. Weight training?
2. Good nutrition?
3. Positive thinking and having purpose

Jon Benson, author of “Fit Over 40″, explores each of these in great detail, as well as asking 52 men and women how they have managed to slow the hands of time down to a crawl. Benson does not waste time with hype and hypothesis. He focuses on real-world examples and applications we can all use to slow down the aging process and help prevent and reverse the conditions that can lead to disease.
