How To Get Healthy Right Now!

Exercise

Firstly, you should make a weekly activity schedule for yourself. This could include going on a hike or a walk with friends. You could take some dancing classes or do something fun instead of committing to a gym. Keep track of your activities to keep yourself accountable. As the weeks go by, challenge yourself with higher intensity workouts and commit to doing just one thing daily. It could be small such as taking the stairs or going for a walk during lunchtime. A motivating tool is to wear a pedometer that tracks how many steps you take in a day. It’s recommended that you take 10,000 steps per day.

Make A Diet Plan

Managing your food intake can simply take a change in how you think about food. When you decide to eat fruits instead of chocolate, internally tell yourself you’re making a choice. You are choosing your health as opposed to replacing an orange for that piece of cheesecake. Making yourself feel guilty feeds the behavior that is making you choose unhealthy foods in the first place. This is a major issue with emotional eaters who beat themselves up for eating something they shouldn’t when they feel down.

Enjoy your food when you eat it. Don’t eat while you’re distracted such as watching TV or driving. When you take the time and slowly eat your food, you’ll be satisfied and less likely to overeat. Make sure to have between five to nine daily servings of both fruits and vegetables.
