REFRESHING FRUIT SMOOTHIE
Do you often feel like you are a professional dieter? You may have tried it all and still are waiting to see the results you wished for. Over 50% of Americans are on a diet, and in 2006, the dieting industry earned over 56 million dollars. This figure includes revenue from diet centers, individual weight loss plans, etc. Have you ever felt like being overweight or unable to lose weight is just a part of who you are, perhaps due to a slow metabolism or your genes? While these thoughts might be true, they do not have to stop you from achieving a healthy weight. There may be an underlying issue to the problem — for example, an undiagnosed thyroid disorder, food sensitivities, undiagnosed diabetes, or other conditions. If you have been struggling with fatigue and an inability to lose weight despite your efforts and are frustrated with ineffective treatments, this could be a vital sign. Here are three ways to improve your lifestyle and shed weight. CREATE A PLAN Many starvation diets cause your body to destroy muscle tissue instead of burning fat. The goal of losing weight is to get healthy by reducing body fat, maintaining muscle, and developing a leaner physique. There are good plans out there, but each caters to specific needs. Finding a pattern you can stick to is essential, as consistency is key. HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE Imagine being measured every week and having to report your progress to someone. This accountability and looking at your progress daily help keep you on track. Having a friend join you on this journey can also help with motivation. START EXERCISING Make exercise enjoyable by incorporating activities you love, such as biking or jogging. Moving your body for a few minutes daily is better than staying sedentary. For additional motivation, consider joining a class, hiring a trainer, or dining in a club that offers group workouts. This can help push yourself further. The key is to enjoy what you are doing. Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight involves more than just dieting; it is about finding a balanced and sustainable approach that works best for you.
