I think people would rather read or watch about other people losing weight than actually doing something about it. Seriously, it's hard to lose weight, stop smoking, etc. If anything, at least it gives people momentary hope and a few take changing their diets seriously instead of looking for a miracle pill or momentary diet.
- tekalon 12y agoSome of these comments reminded me of a story Clotaire Rapaille told in his book 'The Culture Code.' He gave a talk at an obesity conference. Each speaker gave their own solution to the obesity problem. Rapaille's observed: “I think it is fascinating that the other speakers today have suggested that education is the answer to our country’s obesity problem,” I said. I slowly gestured around the room. “If education is the answer, then why hasn’t it helped more of you?”
