The only way to lose weight, get fit and stay healthy is the slow way – healthy diet and regular exercise. If you rush, you fail, and you have only yourself to blame. Think long-term: don’t you want to get fit and stay that way for the rest of your life?

No dieting: dieting ends, healthy diet is a lifetime of good habits. A basic healthy diet: lean meats and legumes, dark veggies, whole grains, lots of water, reduce processed carbs (soda pop is Satan!) and increase fiber. Snack on fruits and veggies instead of salt and sweets. You don’t have to count every calorie, but you should be aware of your overall intake.

It’s unrealistic to say you will never treat yourself to deliciously evil food ever again. The first time you fail becomes the excuse to quit completely. Allow yourself a moderate splurge once every two or three weeks. It’s easier to be good if you know there’s a treat in your future. Avoid temptation – don’t buy it until you eat it, and never get extra.

Exercise: start easy and work your way up. Make the time 3-4 days a week – an hour walk (your dog will love you!), a stroll on the treadmill, swim, dance, whatever. NO EXCUSES – it has to become a habit. Add exercise to your day in small ways: take the stairs instead of the elevator, do isometrics at your desk, ride your bike to school instead of the bus. After a few months start challenging yourself – add leg weights, join a gym, take jazzercise, something. Keep working up from there.

Sadly, exercise doesn’t burn enough calories to lose much weight – a two-mile fast walk equals about half of a Big Mac. But exercise is irreplaceable for a healthy heart, stamina and flexibility. That means a longer and more active lifespan.

Each body has different needs – develop healthy habits tailored to your body and mind. Educate yourself – anatomy and physiology is the owner’s manual for your body. There are thousands of websites with nutrition and exercise information. You can tell the good ones – they aren’t selling quick diet fixes or the patented Abdominatorizerinator.

Don’t quit just because you fall off the wagon one or twelve times – everyone has weak moments. That’s no excuse! It took years to develop bad habits; it will take time to change them.

Your biggest obstacles are laziness and unrealistic expectations. Your best tools are perseverance and education.

Good Luck!
