Boundaries of a Fat Dollar
. Weight loss, muscle gain, happy smiles of a happier life. People fulfilled by their physical achievements. Slicing those slabs of fat off of their bodies once and for good is an amazing accomplishment.
But afterwards many feel the deflated wallet in their pocket. It's then that in their pursuit of weight loss they realized they've lost more than just weight, they lost money. They lost the dollars that their own blood and time gave to them.
I am not saying investing in your health is bad. Quite the contrary, investing in your health is one of the smartest financial assets you could ever give to yourself. It is the thing that will drive you to bring home the other sorts of bacon and dough that life thrives upon. I just believe there is a better way.
To be fair to the various popular diets out there, I will show their costs on a weekly basis presented in this table first published on
| Diet | Total Price of Weekly Food Menu* ** | Percent Over National Average |
| $137.65 | 152.8% | |
| 113.52 | 108.5 | |
| 100.52 | 84.6 | |
| 96.64 | 77.5 | |
| 92.84 | 70.5 | |
| 78.74 | 44.6 | |
| 78.61 | 44.4 | |
| 77.73 | 42.8 | |
| 69.62 | 27.9 | |
| Subway | 68.60 | 26.0 |
| Median | 85.79 | 57.6 |
The cheapest diet on here, over the course of one month would cost you $274.40. Which is $56.74 more than the average American spends on food.
I prefer to do things simpler as I've said openly on my page.That's why my diet is only 125 dollars, not a week but a month.
Weight loss is good, but it is even better without money loss.
