Hello And Merry Christmas!!This is just a shortPost That I wanted to write to try and explain why most people fear weight gain over the holidays.
I always talk to people at my fitness center about diet and exerciseon a daily basis, and it’s mind bending to me that it is still probably one of the most confusing subjects that exist. It’s really all cause and effect. lets examine this a little closer, Say for example you have money problems, Well a good financial adviser willtell you to start monitoring your income and expenses, Right..If your spending more then you are bringing in theirs a problem and this should be fixed asap..
A real no brainer your thinking..well of all the people that I talk to that come into my Club, I ask them how much are you bringing in as far as calories, carbohydrates, and fats? and I swear that about 99% of the people that I talk to say that they don’t do this…
I get the dreaded blank stare.
I continually ask myself why not? how else are you going to know where you stand?
If losing weight is a problem for you then this is an area that needs to be fixed asap.
where do I start you may be thinking? Well Start from square one, start pulling apart what you are eating in terms of carbs fats and calories..
It does not need to be a fancy spread sheet. but it does need to be consistent As a friend of mine once said to me years ago “it’s the little things added up every day that makes the total sum of your results”
There is no big mystery or secret to the wholeWeight loss, weight gain thing, simply take action.. By starting to take in less then you use your weight will stabilize.
Now if you need to lose weight more then 5-8 pounds there are a number of things that you can do to trick your metabolism into burning the fat and feeding the muscle and organs, so your metabolism does not slow to to match your intake but that’s for another day and time
I wish everyone a happy holiday and a merry ChristmasFor NowDan
