Weight Loss And Fitness DVD’s Not All You Might Imagine

Have you ever brought one of those celebrity fitness and weight loss DVD’s and thought wow his has got to work just like they say because I know this celebrity and I can trust everything they say. They wouldn’t lie to me would they?

Well I read a recent article in UK newpaper which might remind you that not every thing you see is true and maybe just maybe you are being mislead…

We have all seen them those fitness and weight loss DVD’s that say you can get fit while exercising in your own home after all who needs all that blood, sweat and tears in the gym when bouncing up and down at home to some popular piece of music a few minutes a day would be so much more refined for a lady.

If you are not one who has fallen for the lure of the DVD workout with celebrities this might just make you rethink things if you are ever tempted by the lure of the celebrity endorsed workout?

According to popular soap opera star Ricky Groves (who until recently was seen in the UK top soap Eastenders) his wife Hannah Waterman who had become a little bigger than usual was approached by Universal Pictures to lose the weight BEFORE they made the video. (sounds a bit unlikley but lets go with it for now. Bear in mind they are getting divorced)

She was then given a diet and exercise regimen for 5 months during which time she lost a total of about 42 pounds now she is is lean and mean and a size US 4.In fact some would say she is really horribly skinny and looks twice her age but that is just being mean.

But hold a minute aren’t we lead to believe this miracle transformation has taken place following the instructions on the video where as reality she has had five months to lose 2lb a week (on average) some how that doesn’t seem quite as impressive and certainly not quite a gruelling a challenge as she and many before would have us believe.

So maybe next time you are considering purchasing a celebrity exercise video you might want to think to yourself am I being told the whole truth here. Hm…

Food for thought perhaps?
