The No Fuss Way To Lose Weight
Open any magazine these days and you could be forgiven for thinking that the only way to lose weight and get into shape is to thrust yourself headlong into a grueling exercise regime.
But they all make the same mistake of assuming that if you want to shed a few pounds then you must also like to run a marathon or compete in a triathlon. Nothing could be further from the truth!
See, hard competition training and simply dropping a few pounds are at opposite ends of the fitness spectrum and never likely to meet. In the exercise and gym culture, one size most definitely doesn't fit all.
So if you are not getting ready for the next Olympics, what can you do to lose weight and get into shape? Quite simply, just undo all the things that got you into your present condition. Which for most people was a combination of eating too much of the wrong things and doing little or no exercise.
So it's pretty obvious that if you want to shed the pounds and feel fitter, you need to eat less of the wrong foods and more of the good stuff. And get your body moving! All it takes is a little extra time and enthusiasm.
Take things easy at first by taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Forget the car for all those short journeys, walking is far healthier and you get to meet new friends too. Take the dog with you and share some quality time. The whole reason for this is to make you realise that exercise is a part of daily life, not some pain that you need to endure to make you feel guilty for eating.
As you begin to notice a difference, just raise your target bit by bit. Walk more often or increase your distance. Carry a rucksack with a water bottle to add a little resistance to your routine.
Drinking a glass of water before every meal will make you feel full sooner as well as fending off dehydration. Water also assists in keeping your bowels regular so make sure that you drink plenty during the day.
By making a few small changes to your diet and your lifestyle, you will soon start to feel fitter, younger and a whole lot better. Now isn't that better than risking serious problems on the squash court?
