What Must I Do To Learn The Correct Exercises and Food Intake For My Body?

• I am not doing anything without consulting with my doctor, nutritionist and/or other health care professional(s).

Everyone has their own health concerns and should not do anything without consulting their doctor, nutritionist and/or other health care professional. Regardless of what the media tries to portray there is no one size fits all cure for weight loss that works for all people. If this were true there would not be a million different products and diets available. Two different people can eat and do the exact same program and get two completely opposite results. There are specific foods that may be good for someone and bad for someone else. There are exercises that are excellent for someone and detrimental for someone else. There can be two people that weight the exact same amount, but carry it different because of their body shape.

• I am studying the information that I am given and asking questions when necessary.

See letter a. above. Study the material that you are given. Keep a specific notebook filled with WORK OUTS and, FOOD JOURNALS, exercise demonstrations etc. See pages 73-74 for examples. Also keep a section for questions with space to write the answers for your doctor, nutritionist and/or other health care professional. See pages 67-68 for suggested questions. Do not believe something just because it sounds good. Do not be beguiled by false doctrine. Do the necessary research. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Maintaining a healthy weight is not easy, but it is simple. Eat a balanced nutritious diet and exercise.

• I am maintaining a continuous program and understand this is a lifestyle change, not a quick fix.

This has to be a lifestyle change. In order to do it right it can’t be something for only a couple of weeks and then you don’t make any permanent change. Remember learning has not taken place until there is a modification of behavior. If you do something for only a specified time you will have a benefit only for a specified time. You may lose 10 pounds on a diet, but as soon as you stop you gain the 10 that you lost plus another 5 pounds in addition. It is proven that it better to lose weight slowly a pound to a pound and a half a week. This can only be done on a lifestyle change. Don't put time limits on your progress because the possibility of failure increases. Also remember that it is important not to weigh yourself every day or even every week. Understand muscle weighs more than fat. This means that as you gain muscle the scale may not move or may even go up. Many do not realize this and become discouraged and quit. It is also important for ladies to know that their weight will fluctuate with their menstrual cycle due to the water weight during this time.
