The Illusion of Weight Loss

In real life the question of why people want to lose weight often perplexes you. In almost all advertisements and commercials related to weight loss or building muscles, you see a man with Hercules figure and or a woman with unnatural skinny and bony looks. These are depicted as the model for men and women. The advertisers and marketers set the standard for people to follow. Most people are like the giant Obelix who is dull and slow of thinking. They don't get it. This is just a gimmick to lure you into thinking what they want you to think. The subtle message is that if you bought their product you will also look like them. They would not say you would look like them, but sub-consciously you are now programmed to think like that.
