Good News / Bad News: You can change your fate… BUT YOU MUST START NOW!

Change takes time... and dedicationThere is so much absent mindedness in our society with regards to our own health, everyday, it seems, news reports counter what they said just the previous week regarding how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I hope this gives you food for thought ;-)
The Bad News: Neglect + Abuse = Early Death

I find it easier to separate the body from the mind, they both enjoy a mutually beneficial relationship, if you neglect one, the other suffers as well but the opposite is also true.
A growing proportion of the people in the industrialized world treat their dogs better then their own bodies. They feed it crap, give it little exercise and wonder why after decades of abuse, why their bodies systematically begin to fall apart leading to a premature death.

We keep hearing this almost everyday, obesity, heart disease, diabetes, many forms of cancer all are conditions are getting worse but what isn’t mentioned is that that they are caused mostly by lifestyle choices done over a lifetime. Change your lifestyle will lead to a change in life which only gets bigger as you age.

The Bad News: Things take time & Effort

If you are like a growing proportion of the worlds population, you have taken your body for granted for so long that it no longer knows how to react to physical or mental stresses that you NEED to place on it for lasting change. This will mean that to achieve realistic results, you will have to work harder then somebody who treated their body like a temple with proper diet and exercise. This is why it is always vital to get a full medical checkup before getting yourself into a serious (I mean serious) change in lifestyle. Simply changing the chairs on the Titanic is not what you need, you need a brand new ship going in the other direction.

The Bad News: Money cannot buy you health

All those magic potions, supplements and miracle powders will not get you the body of your dreams, they can “help” a little but they are absolutely no substitute for hard work - which includes sweat, sacrifice and monitoring. If you are serious about change, don’t waste your hard earned money.

The FANTSTIC NEWS: YOU CAN CHANGE THINGS!

It is NEVER too late to change the fate of your body, if you find yourself lethargic with what you have done to your body, don’t fear or drive yourself insane keeping the same habits that got you where you are now but expecting different results.

The body is an incredibly adaptive machine, you have the body you “enjoy” now because you CHOOSE to make it that way and the great news about this is you can also CHOOSE to change it into any other type you want.

Are you severely obese and wish to have a slim body? Surgery is not the answer, habit transformations is… right now your body is a reflection of your mental well-being… you are sick and need professional help. Having surgery will fix your outer being but your insides will remain the same, hence why many people gain back the weight they lost no matter the method within a few years.

Are you very slim and want to gain a little muscle mass, again, not a problem, evaluate your diet and exercise regimen and make a few changes, those pounds will come relatively quickly.

Your body will initially fight change but once the mind and the body are working together towards a goal you have, their synergy will make what you want into a reality.

The Bottom Line

Take all the information you hear in the media with a grain of salt pinched with a heavy addition of skepticism. Moderation is always the key to life long health.
