In Belize we seem to have a culture of endulging in some very unhealthy foods. This is because the healthy food choices are very limited and costly. how can we change thi culture? Well we an get in the habit of eating home cooked meals, and by all means, STAY AWAY FROM FRIED FOODS. It's very unhealthy, packed with calories and unhealthy carbs and it makes you gassy ( for the females)!!!! Secondly, try to encorporate a little bit of physical activity in your schedule. Even if it is just a 15 minute walk a day, every move counts. I have found out that simply just standing instead of sitting your body os burning calories. So turn off your tvs, put away the computers, set down your phones, becuase it's a beautifual day to get active!! Your never too old to get outside and get into play :). It will increase your energy levels, keep you looking young and help you shed those few ext5ra pounds you might complain about.
As for me, i'm changing the tempo. I made a pledge to lose ten pounds in the next 6 weeks at 1-2 pounds a week. I framed it and pu it over the mirror to remind me each and every day to stay active and eat healthy. What's your view? How do you plan to acheive fitness?
