My mom is obese and has been insecure about her weight for a long time. She has a cabinet full of supplements, some doctor recommended, for weight loss. She has tried cooking without oil. I know she’s tried diet and exercise. Even though she seems to try, she often craves desserts and keeps highly processed foods in the house. She also lives a very sedentary lifestyle that consists of working a desk job, watching TV, and sleeping. The point is, the health kicks usually don’t seem to last and she loses progress quickly. Today I listened to her watch one of those long drawn out videos where someone spends an hour revealing their “weight loss secret” and it specifically talked about women in their 40s who gained weight during pregnancy and never lost it. I don’t like that these ads target women like my mom and can capture their attention by spewing bs for an hour. This is a sensitive topic, so I often avoid talking about weight-related anything with her, but I wish she would stop giving these scams her time of day.
