No but it's hurting them which is why it is so important to hammer the point home. Too many are trapped in this deluded Matrix of being overweight, hating the fact that they are overweight and constantly deluding themselves that they want to do something about it and following diet after diet, club after club.
It's similar to smokers who know that what they are doing is idiotic and say they want to stop but they just don't. Hence they are deluding themselves when they say they want to stop. You can stop anytime. Just don't put another cigarette in your mouth. Really.
Being overweight is the same. Either you truly care about your body and understand that it is just a vessel and that it needs healthy food, or, you don't. It's that simple.
Diets, slimming clubs, gyms etc etc are all the purview of the deluded masses who want to outwardly show that they want to get well, when in fact they don't really. The ego still rules the roost and will continue to cripple the body through unhealthy eating and drinking.
If you are overweight you CAN STOP and change immediately. You can simply make the life decision to give your body the fuel it needs, good fuel, healthy fuel and nothing else.
From the moment that choice is made, health will follow and as a by-product, weight will drop off.
Slimming clubs are nothing but a lame excuse. A total delusion. A way to temporarily pacify yourself and at the same time drown your sorrows in the company of similarly afflicted people so you don't feel as bad about yourself.
It's like "hey, I'm massively overweight but look, so are all these other people so that's ok, it's not all bad, we're all in it together".
But it remains a total delusion. A continuing self denial. You're there because you refuse to make that life decision to simply give the body what it needs. No diets or clubs are necessary. You don't need to pay anyone money to resolve your issues. In fact take those slimming club subscriptions and go to the supermarket and buy a load of fresh vegetables and fruit with them!
The reason this is all so important is because people are trapped in this delusional Matrix and the slimming clubs are simply exploiting vulnerable people for profit and at the same time ensuring their bad health is not only perpetuated but sadly also worsened. Most gain more weight after losing a bit because the clubs offer diets not food education.
Take your money and go see a real nutritionist and have a couple of sessions. It will be money well spent. Their business model is not based on repeat business. You go once/twice, get educated and then you can fend for yourself.
No silly diets just proper understanding of food and nutrition, a life skill to take with you.

Yep but the rub is they are NOT trying their own ways are they? They are trying diets that are spoon-fed to them or they are following slimming clubs who spoon-feed drivel that will see them worse off in time.
