What\u2019s  it going to take to inspire Americans to make the necessary changes to live healthy?  Will it be another report about the real dangers extra weight presents?  Will parents be inspired to change for the sake of their kids? Or will  it come when your pants split open in public because you can\u2019t fit into  them anymore?<\/p>\n<p>Recently,  actor Jason Segel found his inspiration. The actor was photographed  passed out with his gut hanging out and covered in <strong><a title=\"Healthiest Menu Choices at Taco Bell\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/02\/healthiest-menu-choices-at-taco-bell\/\">Taco Bell<\/a><\/strong> wrappers.  Yep, that ought to do it!<\/p>\n<p>Segel  described the photo that his assistant took as his lowest point and has  since dropped 25 pounds. Through good old-fashioned diet and <strong><a title=\"exercise \" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/12\/exercise-makes-you-happy\/\">exercise<\/a><\/strong>,  Segel made the necessary change that so many of us need to make as well.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It is noble when one loses weight for their family, or when one works  with their fiance to shape up before the big wedding day, we\u2019re often  impressed. Would we be less impressed if a long struggle with weight ended because someone was embarrassed they couldn&#8217;t fit in a  seat? Or what if the victory tale began with a story of an honest child,  publicly pointing out one\u2019s large size. Surely we\u2019ve all had the \u201cTHAT\u2019S  IT!!!\u201d moment when even the fat pants don\u2019t slide on with ease.<\/p>\n<p>Inspiration  can obviously come from anywhere and if the end result is a little  embarrassment but a whole lot of lifestyle change, maybe our real  friends should start snapping photos of us. Not the posed ones  where we\u2019re sucking in and standing in our \u201cskinny pose\u201d but the one  where our muffin top is hanging out or our coin slot is peeking over the  skinny jeans.<\/p>\n<p>Via: <a title=\"Jason Segal Iinspired to lose 25 pounds after reaching 'lowest moment' when seeing photo of his gut\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/gossip\/2011\/06\/24\/2011-06-24_jason_segel_inspired_to_lose_25_pounds_after_reaching_lowest_moment_when_looking.html\" target=\"_blank\">NYDailyNews<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"3 Ways to Find Weight Loss Motivation \" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/02\/3-ways-to-find-weight-loss-motivation\/\">3 Ways to Find Weight Loss Motivation<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Take a Break for Weight Loss Motivation \" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/12\/take-a-break-for-weight-loss-motivation\/\">Take a Break for Weight Loss Motivation<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all know that there\u2019s an epidemic of obesity in this country.
