It’s Harder Than Ever to Lose Weight Right Now, Thanks to Things Like Netflix and Uber

  If you’re having trouble losing weight, here are the four greatest words you can hear:  It’s not your fault.

 

 

According to a new study, it’s harder to lose weight right now than EVER before. Why?  Because of all the sweet, seductive technology we have at our disposal.

 

 

Things like Netflix and Hulu are keeping us on the couch so we’re moving around less.  Uber and Lyft keep us from needing to walk.  Grubhub and Postmates keep us from having to cook healthy meals.

 

 

Even online shopping keeps us from having to go to a store and walk around.  Basically, it all causes us to be LAZIER than ever . . . and that’s a damn hard pattern to break out of.

 

 

So what’s the answer if you want to lose weight?  The researchers say your best bet is to talk to an expert, like your doctor, and get a realistic, slow, sustainable plan that works for your schedule.
