just a few thoughts and ideas.....



The main thing is to make peace with your boy now, before you try to change it. Accept where you are at the moment. Okay, you're overweight. But how great that you've decided to do something about it!

Start small, because small can only get bigger. Starting big means burning out, blowing out, getting injured — another reason you might quit altogether.

Exercising is not only about brawn, It's about using your brain. Try standing on a stability ball, one foot only, while a friend tosses you a ball and quizzes you about your job or current events. You train reaction time and hand/eye coordination. All these aspects combine to create a better you.

Working hard is a daily commitment. Each day you have to get up and commit yourself to the day's healthy eating and working out. There's no easy way, but there's the right way. And most everyone knows what that is....


Treat workouts as a business trip. You're not going to the gym to socialize and pitty pat around. This is your time to focus and get serious about your health. You are supposed to get between six and ten hours of sleep per day, depending on what your body needs, on the opposite side of the spectrum, being inactive while awake is proving to be more harmful than it is helpful to a lot of areas from your skin and blood circulation to your weight and your overall heart health. Long periods of inactivity will inevitably lead to an influx of pounds because your body will not be burning off the calories you consume during the day.

Don't eat a big evening meal. A lot of people harbor the false notion that skipping a meal during the day will help them shed the pounds. However, this inevitably leads to massive binging at night. Instead, eat your bigger meals earlier in the day and progressively downsize the later it gets.
