As an adult, you should exercise 30 min./day, five days/wk If you are doing that, great. If not, start today by first being honest with yourself. Think about your family history. Is there heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, or diabetes in your family. If so, don't be a statistic. Be pro-active, develop an exercise plan that you will be comfortable with. A plan that you can expand as you become stronger.
Plus, you have the opportunity to make this the year for real change in your habits and focus on a long and healthy future.
The holidays are coming. Don't be one who makes the classic excuse...I'll start exercising after the holidays. That is not what you want to do is it? If you are serious about your health, you will start doing a better job of taking care of YOU now. You may be great at making resolutions but not so good at keeping them.
Make some common sense promises to yourself now. Write them down if that helps. Post them at a place where you will see them daily. When the holidays arrive, you will be ahead of any resolutions you were intending to keep.
Don't go to a party hungry.
Watch your portion.
Make a conscious choice to limit high fat items.
Try different versions of egg nog.
Drink lots of water.
Try Kahula instead of beer.
Maintain a daily exercise routine.
Don't be a slacker...Take control of your life!
