As you read this, two out of three American women are trying to lose weight. Here’s hoping they succeed. But how many times have you heard a friend or someone you work with say they’ve lost ten to fifteen pounds on such-n-such diet and then two months later, they’ve gained the weight back again? Unfortunately, this is a regular occurrence and a dangerous, disappointing cycle for many.
Among the millions who put pounds back on after yo-yo dieting, fewer than five percent are able to lose them again. Some experts say the reason could be your natural body chemistry, or the fact that you may just have bad luck. But I say it’s a lack of motivation. What’s wrong with society these days? Too busy? Too stressed? Too overworked to worry about your health? I say stand up for what you really want - and take control of your body inside and out! There’s no time like the present.
The solution? You’ve got to work harder than ever before to keep flab from coming back – it all comes down to proper diet and exercise. Yes, the same old adage that’s been ingrained into our heads since we were kids. Cut out the junk food, stick to the basics, eat your veggies, and drink plenty of water. (Well, it may be a little more complicated than that as we get older but you get my point). Stick to the basics and you’ll succeed. Promise.
Today I started to get back to basics myself with every intention to stick with my plan of eating healthier and working out. Whether it be yoga (my love lately) or the treadmill in the garage at home – my goal is to lose the weight (and keep it off) once and for all. Are you ready to take the challenge? Let’s do it together!
