Changing behaviors is a significant part of my new role at MotivAction and something I'm passionate about in other areas of my life as well. This is not a plug for my company but rather a way to think about diet and exercise.
Eating better and/or spending more time exercising is something we could all do a little better at; but it usually ends up feeling forced and sometimes even painful to do. For some it’s eating better and healthier… cutting out those easily forgotten snacks or deserts that end up adding hundreds of extra calories to our meals. For others, it’s keeping busy – getting out of that chair at work or off the couch a couple times each week and going for a walk.
Once you're able to change those negative behaviors associated with your eating and exercise habits, it becomes much easier and less painful to maintain and continue working towards a healthier life.
Great job everyone! The points were good and one person managed to lose over 9% of their overall body weight; that’s amazing!!!
