“Obesity is a choice. This doesn’t mean it’s easy to solve, but it is a choice. YOU MUST accept this or you will never solve this problem.” -Sal Di Stefano

The statement above either has you nodding your head in agreement or has you feeling a bit pissed off. If being overweight has been a recent or even a lifelong struggle for you, it’s hard to hear that you’re actually choosing to be overweight, but when you understand the power of extreme ownership over every area of your life, including your body you may start approaching your health much differently.

Whenever health and weight loss come up, without a doubt diet and exercise are part of the conversation and first on most people’s minds. What if there are other factors more important to not just losing weight, but to keeping the weight off long term? What if exercise isn’t as important as we’ve been told?

This episode with Sal Di Stefano is exposing the lies millions of people fall for that lose weight every year only to gain it back. Why is Sal so confident after 20 years in fitness that obesity is a choice people are repeating day after day?
