I think fitness (with the exceptions of diseases and/or illnesses, or medications for both) is a lifestyle. Some are blessed with good genetics while others have to work harder at it. Regardless, if you want your internal systems to work and your external systems to reflect the same, exercise is the only way. There are exceptions to the rule where surgery may be needed for relief of pressure on internal and external systems, but you will never develop your internal systems (cardio-vascular, skeleto-muscular) or your external systems (physique) without putting in some hard work and eating discipline. There is no easy way...

Because if there was a hard way and an easy way with same results but different "side-affects" most people would take the easier way and say hey ill deal with the rest later cuz rite now i just wanna look good. Society makes us this wat with ideal people and ideal bodies so everyone wants to "ideal"

Because we all want an "Easy Button" in life. Exercise is time-consuming and hard work that most people view as a burdon, not a blessing. "We" take the path of least resistance and consumerism makes "us" believe that that we can take a pill and everything will be all better.

I agree. & I'm tired of seeing all these questions about losing weight. Most of them only want to do it for appearance, not health, & they don't care that they're screwing up their bodies with these "quick fixes". Unfortunately some of the methods used take a toll on their bodies & later they will have health issues. When you're sickly you don't look so good....so really it's defeating the purpose.

your right! there is no easy way. We as Americans are getting really lazy. So therefore as an affect from being lazy we are just getting fatter and much more out of shape. Then once we are so overweight we feel louzy. We don't have the energy to exercise, this is where we turn to a pill for a quick fix. You've got to really make your mind up to be healthy and serious about it before you can take that first step. Its a vicious circle. People to start exercising other parts of their body besides their elbow, bending to their mouths!

Instant gratification!
In this modern world, people want everything at their finger tips. Instant everything - that's why you have microwavable and frozen food and all these fast food restaurant - fast to the ground.
It's hard to do the exercise when you live in a busy world; more so for women. We have double duties, at work and at home. Good discipline and good eating habit are a must if we want to be healthy.
