Drive, comfortable clothes, great nutrition and consistency. If you have the drive to lose weight or gain muscle then you will succeed. You may have set back a long you ride to health but with good drive to succeed you will. How do you get drive if you made a decision to change your lifestyle that’s drive, how do you keep it going keep the benefits that you are gaining like feeling better, more stamina for you and your family and better brain function.
Comfortable clothes is essential to a good workout because you want to be flexible and have full movement. You probably don’t want to feel confidment like you are adding more weight from trying to move from your clothes. My store sells great flexible clothes to exercise in.
Great nutrition to me is probably the most important. Eating wholesome food is so important for your muscles, mind and body, fat control, vitamins and minerals. With good nutrition it’s like fine tuning yourself for optimal performance. As for me I have some fruit after a workout some people have protein drinks or some other post workout snacks.
Consistency is important because the more you keep going it becomes a habit which is a good thing. Out of habit forming exercise and nutrition is one of the best you can have. Things not to bring to the gym cell phones or anything that can distract you from your exercise, plus some people get mad if you wasting time on something they are wanting to use. Remember a bad workout is better than no workout.

Berry nice

Berries are great they have magnesium, probiotics, vitamin c and k and fiber. Blueberries contain antioxidants which protects cells from damage. There are so many different types of berries with different benefits mixing them is the best way to get the best nutrition from them, my favorites are blueberries, blackberries, strawberry and cranberry which I try to mix them up. Grapes, cucumbers, tomatoes, oranges, watermelons, pumpkins, and even bananas can be also classed as berries. They are carb friendly with natural sugars, in today’s world of low carb or low fat diets which I never worry about as long as you eat a good diet. I go with more carbs and low fat diets I bodybuild and run so higher carbs work for me. As I said if you eat good wholesome foods worrying about to much fat or carbs are something you really don’t have to worry about. Of course the down side to fruit is moderation because it can cause weight gain. But some fruit can help in weight loss so research what fruits suit your goals.

Don’t sit there?

We have all been there, sitting around watching TV or eating junk food sitting around wasting time. Did you get your steps in today, your workout or run, maybe you did or maybe you didn’t I’ll do it tomorrow. Are you to busy for yourself, yourself is more then your hair, makeup or deodorant your body and mind are you. Some of us have a spouse and family and maybe you focus more of your time on them which is great. But you are the only one that can take care of your health and you have that power. If you start eating healthy and exercise it might inspire your family to do so too. Most of us have chores and tasks we do during the day, sitting at a computer all day is mentally exhausting. Exercise will increase Endorphins and oxygen to your brain which will help wake you up and get moving. If you live in and apartment building take the stairs as much as you can instead of the elevator. If you have a park or parking lot start out walking go a little faster after some time maybe even start jogging a little bit. I can’t say that enough exercise and diet can make you a healthy and happy life.
You don’t have to change overnight just some overtime walk a little more eat more fruits and vegetables over meat. I understand when we get off work exercise is not on a top priority especially if you have to take care of your family or your a care taker of someone. So how do I get exercise during the day, I do it before work, walking only helps your legs and may get your heartbeat up some 80 to 150 beats per minute. So weight training with walking is a better workout. I may have not answered the question but I try to give so ideas. You can do low key exercise while watching TV but remember the smaller the steps the longer it takes to get there and there is a bigger chance to take another path and not get there. Routine, moderation and consistency are the most important part for weight loss and health.

Why diets don’t always work

One question about weight loss is this, if you’re overweight compared to a skinny person, does that mean the skinny person is healthier than the overweight person no it doesn’t diet, what you eat, how much you eat and consistency are some of the factors. I don’t believe the old balanced diet is correct anymore fats, carbs and grains are not right plus it doesn’t give proportion amounts or calories. Larger amounts of green vegetables and smaller or no meat and watch how much grain you eat is a good diet. Most of your fat should come from vegetables like avocado and coconut to name a few, fruits need to be limited because of the sugar.
Now to tackle the question about some diets and why they fail. All of the fad diets restrict some food and increase other food which is not healthy and your body is going to fight back. You may lose a few lbs but will gain it back quicker then you lost it. I’m vegan I have seen that called a fad diet, with me it’s a lifestyle not a diet. Healthy eating for life is the best way to lose weight and keep it off. Being vegan which I don’t eat any animal products mostly beans,greens and fruit well is it healthy in my opinion yes, I have gotten rid of all the sickness I had lost weight and feel great with no pain and I am 54 years old. Then there are a lot of drugs promising that you will loss weight most don’t work and the ones that might work what are the side effects of the drug is it worth it to lose a few lbs. I have met some people who never cared about being healthy until they started having medical problems. These people rely on drugs and doctors to help them live. It’s never too late to be healthier, start while you are young enough don’t rely on fads and drugs reward yourself with health for your body and brain. Eating at the same time every day can increase weight lose eating a small breakfast, bigger lunch and a small dinner or two regular meals a day helps to control your body weight.
