Adjusting Nutrition And Exercise For Your Lifestyle

Written By Chris Novick

One of the hardest things to do, is to start. In your journey, this may apply to both exercise and nutrition. When most people decide to really take their health seriously, they will tend to implement a rather intense overhaul to their exercise and nutrition. For example, a relatively sedentary person will decide that they are going to start working out 5 times per week and cut out all of the sweets that they eat…. Now although the sentiment is positive, the action is such a drastic change to their current day to day living that it will probably end in failure.

The approach that I find works best for most people, it to evaluate their current eating and exercise habits, and make small adjustments over time to help their body and mind adjust to the changes taking place. Now, this process takes a bit more time than cutting out all of the happiness in your life to drop 10lbs immediately, BUT it leads to a long lasting lifestyle adjustment that will keep the weight off and help you maintain the weight loss instead of just a temporary drop or yo-yo lifestyle.
