You probably know many people who took a weight loss resolution. They get on the band wagon of strict dieting, strenuous work out schedules, sauna baths and what not. These people literally kill them selves in order to loose weight. The cumulative list of restriction can be summarized as fallows: I will get up at 5 in the morning and go for walk/jog, work out at home/gym or do yoga etc. I will stop eating sweets.
