There is so much written about weight loss, yet we are still struggling [I know I am] to find the magic formula or the little golden pill that would just melt away all that nasty fat.
Middle aged spread creeps up and before you know it you added inches to your waistline. I gained 2 dress sizes in as many years and if this goes on I may have to pay for an extra seat next time I fly!
Dieting and exercise go hand in hand, it is not just a matter of fitting into a smaller size, my main aim is fitness and a healthy longer life, at 40 life is only beginning. The down side of 40 is loosing weight becomes a little harder.
Diet and exercise may not be the only answer, our MIND may have a lot to do with it, I would even venture to say that it plays the biggest part.
The way we see ourselves and feel about our bodies is often the result of years of negative conditioning and contrary messages from the people around us and the media. Open any magazine and you will see stick thin actresses and then a caption mentioning their cellulite!!
Excuse me but what is the message here? We should all look sick and undernourished?
I don't know about you, I do feel better when I loose a bit of weight but only because my fitness and health improve too.
If you have any weight loss ideas that have worked for you, please leave a comment.
