Diet Review Websites:

They don't care about you and your weight loss struggles

 

I began writing my opinions about diets 10 years ago. At the time I was trying to figure out how to make a living on the internet so I'd have the time to pursue my outdoor passions of skiing, climbing, hiking and cycling. And also because I was once 75 pounds overweight and I still had plenty of pent-up anger for all the diet scams out there.

There were no websites that told the truth about them. I had no example to follow and barely knew the basics of web design, so I created a simple template with a headline banner with several links to different categories of diets, a long vertical list with all the diets I wrote about and a basic footer with an opinion discaimer and information about my site. The same as it is today.

My reviews were pretty basic back then and they haven't changed much over the years. My review criteria for weight loss programs has always been long-term, as in, how effective a diet is likely to be for permanent weight loss. I have been paid to endorse numerous diets over the years, but only those who conformed to a rigid standard of decreased calorie, low-fat diet and fun exercise at a low cost.

Today, chasefreedom.com has been surpassed in the search engine listings by numerous copy-cat websites. I guess that's life. I just wish they'd copy-cat a little closer and quit pushing every diet under-the-sun, worthless, harmful diet pills and diets whose only focus is to take desperate people's money. The copy-cats know who they are. And they don't care about you and your weight loss struggles.
