Free Dieting Advice

The new year is just around the corner, and what’s #1 on many, many people’s list of resolutions? Lose weight. So there will be a flood of people on the ‘net on Jan. 1st looking for that magical miracle that will help them shed those unwanted pounds in the blink of an eye. And sure, they’ll find many a huckster out there ready to separate them from their hard-earned money, promising “miracle,” “no exercise,” “eat-what-you-want” diets. And honestly, who hasn’t tried something crazy? Desperate times call for desperate measures.

But with all of the information out there on the internet, why pay money when you can get the information for free? There are many FREE weight loss forums out there offering dieting advice and information, along with a huge community of people on the same journey as you – weightloss.

So before you plunk down that credit card and pay for something that is probably not all it’s cracked up to be, take some time to search the internet and research the product you’re looking into. Better yet, join a weight loss forum (or several) and become a part of a community. Make some friends and learn something too. Plus, there likely will be someone out there who has information on any product you’re looking into and whether or not it is worth the money.

< shameless plug > My personal favorite low carb weight loss forum is Low Carb Eating. It’s full of wonderful, friendly people who will help with all aspects of the weight loss journey. No flaming and no snarkiness. (Not that I don’t enjoy a good bit of snark from time to time…)

Whatever you do and where ever you decide to make your weight loss home, I wish you much success and many visits from the whoosh fairy!
