I like the reminder to not beat yourself up over slips. We hold ourselves to the impossible standard of perfection.

Hiya

Good post. I particularly liked the emphasis of caring for yourself and allowing flexibilty into the changes made to diet, exercise and lifestyle. Sadly, I often hear women and now increasingly men (althougth many are too macho to admit it), refusing to eat certain types of food that are high in fat, like nuts, seeds and oils. The very same fats, that we are told by nutritionists, are required by the brain and body to function well.

You’re spot on in writing ‘keep your own goals in perspective’. I think that encourages more sensible changes.

Thanks
Jens

I eat healthy when I am on my own, where right now I have my niece here, she is getting started on her adult life.She has the job, next the apartment, then stuff to fill it. I would like to get something like a pedometer, I use a wheelchair, and like to wheel a lot when out and about, like with inclines. I would just like to know how far I have gone. Do they have those for bikes, that I can put on one of my wheels?
Also, what was Henry the VIII? Other than gross. Did they get diabetes in those days and just not know about it?

Hi,

It is as though this article was written for me. It’s so funny that I clicked on it this morning. I have a definite all or nothing mentality. Thank you for this article, I will print it and read it when I start thinking all or nothing. I had back surgery and have given up. Now, I am thinking there are things I can do to get exercise without hurting my back. I am going to do some today…that’s the key word…some. I don’t have to do a major workout to have results in my health and mental well being. I can do things moderately. It’s so simple and yet, my brain was stuck in the wrong mode.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

Marie

Hi Ali,

Wholegrain help to keep us full for longer hours which reduce our tendency to snack. This mean that we are taking in lesser calories. Implementing this idea in dieting will help us to achieve better results.

Thanks for the post…I have gained some weight over the last year and I have fallen into many of the traps you mentioned here.

Thanks for this post. What I’ve found is that I always stay motivated to do forms of exercise that, to me, give me a sense of being spiritually centered. Right now I do yoga and kenpo karate, and the peace those disciplines bring to my whole life make them so worthwhile.
