The Actions of Weight Loss

I know its obvious, but so many of us only target one of the basics.

In order to have the body you desire, you will need to have a healthy diet, and a healthy amount of exercise.

In all cases, moderation and gradual increase are essential.


Do not go on a crash diet, and do not suddenly go from "zero to hero" at the gym.

All this will do is cause massive lactic acid buildup, stress, and ultimately, defeat and failure.

Start small.  Take up something fun like martial arts or swimming.  The magic number is 3 times per week, for about an hour.

Next, consider an alkaline diet.  The basics of this involve reducing meat intake, adding green drinks and additional salads to your meals.

Take it slow, and reward yourself with something other than food for actions, not results.  ie "I tried my hardest today and grew as a person" is better than "I lost 2lbs".


Make weight loss a side effect of your lifestyle, not the goal, and it'll stick!

Diet Resolutions are among the most common of all our New Years goals. And their success is less than 1%.

One Percent!

Why?

It primarily has to do with the method of goal setting, and the methods of weight loss chosen. How good at math would you be if once per year you decided to get better at it and then promptly forget the whole thing? And how good would you be if you practiced your math with sticks drawing in the sand instead of say, a calculator or sheet of paper?

Weight loss can (and must) be broken down into two categories.
