We always try to keep up on the latest news and “hot topics” in the world of weight loss and wellness. As you may suspect there are A LOT of articles and tons of information, opinions and positions taken out there. In all reality, we fully DIS-agree with much of the weight loss oriented material put out there. Some individuals and organizations who are in positions of “authority” are clearly off-base and out of touch with current reality, research and strategies.

But, there is another important aspect of all this to be touched on.
