Pitfalls and Pratfalls

Be forewarned. Few people adhere to a diet or exercise program consistently for any length of time, for valid reasons. First, many programs are complex, requiring effort, change in habits, lifestyle and time. Second, they are ultimately viewed by participants as deprivations. Third, neither diet nor exercise can bring about targeted fat mobilization; ie. the loss of fat in selected areas. The rule of thumb is that, irrespective of the diet or exercise regimen, most people first lose bulk in the face, then in their arms, whereas their goal is preferential results in the tummy, buttocks and hips. People jump from diet to diet because what they really seek is a quick, relatively effortless, targeted fix, which historically they have been unable to achieve. There are only three targeted fixes available: Infusion Lipolysis™, lipectomy and liposuction. Lipectomy is rarely used, because of the long incisions required to cut out fatty tissue.
