Ep. 118: Best Ways To Lose Weight

Guest: Dr. Michael Lyon, obesity expert

We've been conned by the weight loss industry.

That is according to Dr. Michael Lyon, one of Canada’s top obesity experts. He claims the industry is tricking us into believing there is a magic formula to losing weight.

When it comes to shedding weight, he says, it's simple and, at the same time, it's really hard to do. It comes down to eating less because you can't out exercise your fork.

He has dedicated himself to understanding how the human body works, why it puts on weight and never wants to lose it. He maintains the key to managing a healthy weight is complex but it can be done.

"You get into a long term mindset where you know, this is gonna be something I work at 'for the rest of my life.' It's something you work at every day. That doesn't mean necessarily that weight maintenance is harder; it certainly requires daily vigilance, and as time goes on, the key is you have to develop a new rhythm of life."
