Battling Obesity

Welcome back to this invigorating blog about the problems of obesity. Now those problems are not necessarily of a medical or health topic, but can also encompass the social, or lifestyle side of this problem. So in this post, I’ll be looking at battling obesity not just from the standpoint of health and fitness, but also from a social viewpoint.

First of all, its more that just a case of exercising and moving yourself to get the calories going in the right direction for a change, as it really isn’t always a lot of fun. So while want to think about moving around and flexing your muscles, you also need to think about how you’re going to deal with the next person who looks at you like you’re an alien from Mars when you’re walking down the street.

Obese people come in all shapes and sizes, its true but those who are not will always stare because they don’0t understand. I will have to try it and see how well I can manage tubby. I have no idea on this. I love a good old fashioned fry up. I knew that I have done this before. There’s nothing like enjoyment to motivate a person.

The owners sent out an email detailing obesity over the weekend and it sounds great. Eating too much of all that fatty food will make you get fat too quickly. I didn’t care about getting a lot of people to like obesity. It’s embarrassing when you are so big you take up two seats. It’s more about motivation than anything else. Are you fed up with being too heavy.

Obesity should be providing solutions for your problems. A sedentary lifestyle is a recipe for a health disaster. If I have one slice of cake, I want to eat the whole thing. You can do anything when you put your mind to it. There’s nothing you cannot do, apart from those times when you only have to look at a cream cake and gain another few pounds. How lame, after all. Its almost like wanting to revoke any support for this authoritative idea by burying your head in the sand and hoping it’ll just go away all by itself. Which, of course it will not without you doing something about it yourself.

Ok, that’s about as much as I want to write on this right now. I’ll re-visit this delicate subject again in a future post or two, as its really too big to cram into one post without sending the reader to sleep! See you again soon.

The Right Diet for the Right Person

It is all well and good saying that you are going to go on a diet to lose some of the weight that is causing you so many health problems, but you can do yourself a lot more good when you take the time to choose the right diet plan that suits you as an individual, rather than merely selecting one off the shelf. That’s because generic diets may look great on paper, but often will only work for some people and not others. So why is this so?

The main issue with all diets is that they need to be tailored to suit the individual because we are all different in many ways. Men and women have different dietary needs, as do vegetarians, diabetics, people over a certain weight above their ideal weight, people over a certain age and people under a certain age. Some people are healthier than others and will be physically able to exercise in combination with a diet whereas others may not be so fit and prevented from doing certain forms of physical exercise. Others are just bone idle and won’t do any exercise while still others simply don’t believe they need to exercise at all and will rely entirely on a diet to lose weight. This works for some but not necessarily for everyone.

So getting the type of diet for your personal and individual circumstances, including gender, level of health, height, build, lifestyle and many other aspects which should all be taken into consideration. To that end, a visit to a respected dietitian or nutritionist will pay dividends because they will be able to tailor a diet to you specifically by taking all your personal circumstances into the equation. If it is a certain diet plan they recommend, you should take their advice and use it. If you can also exercise to augment the diet, then you should do that too in order to give yourself the best chances of successfully losing the weight that might otherwise cause you severe health problems down the line, or even sooner than you may think.

So you can clearly see that choosing the right diet plan is an important step in your own personal weight loss journey and one that can mean the difference between losing sufficient weight to bring your health back to where it needs to be, or not.

Stay Healthy, Take the Stairs!

I bet it has happened to you on enough occasions when you were waiting for the elevator and you knew that you were only intending going up one floor. I bet you thought that all the other people that were also waiting for the same elevator were going to say something about you as soon as you got out. Something like “What a lazy so and so to go up only one floor… he could have used the stairs and let someone else in who was going further… if he took the stairs instead of being lazy he/she might not be so fat…”

Aha, you are probably feeling guilty about using an elevator to go up only one floor, but not guilty enough to take action and walk away from there and find the stairs. You probably don’t even know where they are! Well, if that is you and you are overweight, do you not think it is time to take the bull by the horns and take action? There is no time like the present, so instead of waiting for that elevator, go take the stairs. Then make it your mission to do it every day.

Know what? Before too long, you’ll be wanting to take those stairs two at a time and more than just one floor at a time as well. As you do, you’ll also find your legs getting stronger, a little less flabby, your backside stars to firm up and… heavens above… your weight begins to drop a little!

Yes, this can happen and it will happen when you take action and start taking the stairs everywhere you go. Its tough at first, and your first flight of stairs will probably have you huffing and puffing for breath when you bet to the end. But you must persevere. Don’t even try thinking about how climbing the stairs helps you to lose weight as it will avert your attention on simply getting used to doing it. It will get easier the more you do it and before long you will wonder why you ever got so lazy!

When the proof of that particular pudding shows itself not just on the bathroom scales but in the smaller size of the clothes you are wearing, you can pat yourself on the back (you’ll be slimmer and able to do that too!) and congratulate yourself on a job well done!
