but if you don't know what healthy food choices are in this day and age, you must be living under a rock.
Many people are living under a rock effectively, addicted to television and mainstream media as their sources of information.
I think another factor in weight loss in where you shop. In my experience both rich and poor folks are overworked and short of time..the difference? Rich folks are able to shop at Whole Foods to pick up their quick meals while the poor go to KFC or Burger King.
An added element is peer pressure, if you are rich you have to maintain the standards of your peers. Go to any upscale mall, see the women that are walking around, huge emeralds and sapphire jewelry, Bentleys, Ferraris, Healthclub memberships out the a$$, botox. If you are a rich trophy wife you have standards to maintain and those standards are set by your peers.
Jennifer Aniston has 3 skin care specialists for her face. That's probably 100K a year she pays each. And she's 42 years old. An ordinary women cannot compete with that...however eating right and staying fit is something everyone can do.
