Fitness for all (simply)

Although as we get older it becomes more difficult to
change our body shape it is still possible and will be
helped no end if we change our diet. The weight goes on so
gradually and as it does we become slower in everything we
do, but again, the change is so gradual that it's hardly
noticeable that deciding that we'll take action starting
today is often a difficult decision to make. It's not
necessarily changing because we'll look better and people
may be more attracted to us, but it's for our very
existence; our health and our future.

Fifty years ago the lives of our parents and grandparents
were very different. Most of us would have had very
physical jobs and we would have burned off the cooked
breakfasts and the puddings without a problem. Now our work
is equally demanding but in a different manner and we tend
to spend most of our lives sitting in front of computers.

It was quite common fifty years ago for an adult to
consume and use at least 4000 calories a day. Now, because
of our life style, we can find that 1500 calories will
cause us to put on weight and so we end up starving
ourselves. The result is our bodies demand the foods that
it needs to keep going. We don't always interpret this in
the right manner and often eat the wrong foods in belief
that we're doing the right thing and so our weight
billows.

In addition, it has always been accepted that as we grow
older our waists will thicken. Now, however, we expect to
stay sexy and young for longer. They say that fifty is the
new thirty but it is hard work to make a fifty year old
body have the same shape as a thirty year old. Our main
goal, however, should be to want to live a long and healthy
life and we can only do this by taking care of ourselves
and what we eat. If we can grasp the nettle and start our
new lease of life by changing our diets, our bodies will
begin to feel more energised and therefore able to start
exercising. If this is a frightful thought it can start as
something as simple as making extra trips up the stairs and
develop into extra housework or gardening, a walk at the
weekend, perhaps a dance class, swimming (with a sauna a
Jacuzzi, of course!), in fact the list is endless.

In short, today is the day to decide that you want to live
a long and healthy life for the sake of your children and
their children. So:
Take your diet in hand. Base your diet on fresh fruits,
vegetables and nuts and eliminate the 'dead' foods
(anything that is literally dead or cooked to death by
frying or over boiling).
Processed products, however, good they may appear should
be avoided at all costs. Don't think that you are doing the
right thing by eating foods that are labelled 'fat free' as
they are usually full of sugar. Remember that your body
needs good fats - almonds and avocados are often avoided
because they have a lot of calories but they're great
sources of fats for a healthy body and mind.
Drink lots of water. Apart from being good for you it
will help you to feel full.
Don't binge on huge meals but try to eat sensible items
regularly throughout the day. Your stomach won't tell you
that it's full until twenty minutes after you've finished
eating so be aware.
Look at your body and decide where you need to lose the
weight. Assess the exact changes you need to make and
either buy yourself a book or go to exercise classes that
will target the right exercises.
If you can combine a new diet with exercise you will
find that your body shape will change much faster.
