Common Misconceptions about diet/ fitness and weight loss.

• At my gym they have free weights, so I took them. 
• Every time I get the urge to exercise, I lie down till the feeling passes.
• I want to get a six-pack and know exactly what to do, head straight to the grocery store and head down the drink aisle!
• The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight because by then, your body and your fat are really good friends.
  
• Flexibility is overrated.  If God had wanted me to touch my toes He would have put them up higher on my body.
• I'm in shape. Round is a shape.
• Chocolate is a vegetable. How, you ask? Chocolate is derived from cacao beans. Bean = vegetable. Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS. Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.
• Whole Cookies are fattening.  Just have a piece of cookie -- the process of breaking causes fat leakage.
