Food you can live with
If you currently have a bad diet, changing that bad diet to a healthy one might be
difficult. Don't say to yourself, "Ok I'm going on a diet, no more chocolate
cake." You will stop eating chocolate cake for about a week then you will go back to
your old diet, unsuccessful. Instead, take the chocolate cake, but instead of having 2
pieces, just take one. You can still have the sweets you enjoy but only in moderation.
Food and FitnessMake fitness a part of your
daily schedule. Whether it's a 10 minute walk around the block or a 30 minutes run, get
your body moving. Try to include exercising into your daily schedule. Nutrition alone
won't make you as healthy as you can be.
Smoking
If you are a smoker, stop now. If you have been
trying to stop smoking but can't, seek professional help. Smoking causes lung cancer,
chronicle bronchitis, mouth cancer, yellowness in teeth. Inhaling of tobacco smoke is
harmful for the heart and the veins. It also causes shortness of breath, which can keep
you back from your fitness goals. |
