This happens
later in life than most people think. I never been an
active type of person. I used to go hiking but never really to the
gym. There are some things that never change.
This could be because of age
or just because all the people around him are fat.
Probably it was a
combination of all these things that made
me start thinking about diet and health. When a person is young one
could eat fast food, three meals per day and not feel it. But with age
people start to feel it more. The progression toward a healthy
lifestyle was to make it healthier.
When you loose
your diet you also loose your body. You loose your sleeping habits,
your hair does not look good, and your skin also looks like leather.
I wondered why some people’s skin looks so
terrible and now I got the answer.
There is
something that has to be done.
You are starting to feel out of condition and still you do not know how
to change the things. You have to know that this is not impossible. If
you are married or are in a long term relationship, then it will be
easier for you. The lady would like to look as she used to be like when
she was young.
It will be easier if both of
you do it. Then you will not be tempting each other with food.
There should be some point from which to start.
The
first thing is to go to your doctor for a physical. You should have
some blood taken and see the results. If you have not done this before,
it is a good thing to do. He will check your cholesterol and the likes.
In case you have a health condition you have to talk about your diet
and the exercise plans with him before doing anything else. If you have
diabetes you have to start with a new diet.
You have to
choose what kind of diet you have to go on. It is preferable to focus
on a diet that is high in vegetables and fruits. You have to diminish
the meat and the carbs and you have to stick to as many fresh items as
possible. This will definitely help you loose weight. You have to start
making some exercises. It is preferable to start with walking and
jogging. You can go together along with your old lady. You may also get
a dog and they love to go on walks. This will be a motivation for you
to make your walks.
After getting
used to waling you may go to the gym. It is better if you can afford a
personal trainer. If not, it is preferable to start with swimming and
making an exercise bikes. You could also start with the treadmill. You
should not stop making your walks. This is a good exercise and quality
time with your old lady. You will enjoy the talks that you have during
your walks. If you are over forty, it is not sure how you will do
weight-lifting. Your body will need some time to get used to lifting
weights. But at the beginning you will feel tired.
I do not like weight lifting. It is boring to stand, sit and
lift things for hours.
The main thing
that has to be done is to change your diet, get more exercises and
listen to your doctor.
If he tells you to do what
you are doing then continues. In case he gives you any warnings, you
have to listen to him.
