“Diet” is one of the most used words when it comes to lose or gain weight, and this is the biggest problem of all.Everybody wants quick and easy, but following a diet plan that you don’t enjoy for a short period of time won’t do any good on your health and definitely it will not make you <a href="Https://google.com">healthier</a>

A misunderstood concept

The key to achieving and maintaining a healthy body isn't about short-term dietary changes. It's about a lifestyle that combines balanced eating habits with daily exercices or any sort of activity.

It’s not a diet, It’s a lifestyle

If you don’t like what you are eating, just don’t eat it.You can “fool” yourself for a week, a month or even more, but on the long run, eating food that you don’t like may do more harm than good.

Always be in control

<ul><li>Start by doing any kind of activity that requires physical effort. It doesn’t have to be anything major, you can start with daily walks and build your way up 🚶‍♂️</li><li>Second, you must be aware of what you eating. You don’t have to eat only chicken and salads everyday, but neither oreos cookies 🍪</li><li>Finally and the most important, you have to be consistent and pacient. Healthy habbits are developed overtime and don’t forget, Rome was not built in a day either.</li></ul>

Being healthy is simpler than you may believe

We want everything quick and easy. Everyone wants a quick fix for weight loss. This is exactly what the weight-loss industry offers.

To sell products, weight loss companies have tricked people based on false promises.

The diet industry is in it for the money. They just want to sell you something.

They do not focus on overall health and well-being of you. Instead, the focus is based on ineffective “lose weight quick” tactics that tend to work for a short period of time.

Many people who try mainstream diets of eating fewer calories, lose water weight very quickly at the start. Soon after they are discouraged when they are unable to make steady progress and quit.

You do not need to buy special diet food or supplements to lose weight. Heck, you shouldn’t even count calories.

The reality is that 95% of diets fail.

Caloric restriction and fad diets can make you lose weight for a short while. But they do not help cut bad health habits.

These steps I mention above are easy to say, but it is not easy to change. You must be able to slowly change bad health habits over time.

For example:

If you eat a pack of double stuffed oreos every week. Just don’t buy double stuffed oreos and buy apples to eat instead.

If you really can’t stop with the oreos, then buy single stuffed and limit yourself to one per day. Gradually build up to the apple.

Losing weight is a long-term grind. If you are not ready to put in the work, you can’t expect results.

The two pillars of a healthy weight are the right information and execution.

The information is simple. The work is on you.

With the internet today it is much harder for fitness and health companies to scam people for their money. This is one reason why I am writing.
