There are hundreds of diet books and weight management centers. The underlying message from all of them is "eat right and exercise" along with a lifestyle change and behavior modification. Well, it is just not that simple. If it was, there would be no weight problem in this world. We all know that eating right and exercising is the key, but how do we get ourselves to do it and stay with it? What causes us to continually bounce up and down in the "yo yo" syndrome? What causes us to just give up?
Losing weight is not a black and white issue. There are many shades of gray. If you are serious about long-term success health and weight management, you need to know more about the shades of gray. In addition, you need to be coached through it so it becomes habit. Ongoing training, support, and reinforcement are necessary to achieve a successful lifestyle change. |
|
We have a better chance at being successful with our weight management if we: |
- Understand the dilemma of fitness and weight management
- Understand that being fit is not difficult, it just requires a change of lifestyle and an adjustment of our mind set.
- Understand that, with a strong foundation of fitness wisdom, we can be successful by creating and living our own fit lifestyle based on our individual needs, goals, preferences, and abilities.
- Make a strong and permanent commitment to ourselves.
