The New Buzz-Word In Dieting

I've come across a new word to do with diet, eating, and I suppose you'd have to say to do with exercise, health and fitness (or the lack of them), as well. Obesogenic, apparently, is Government-committee-speak for British society, which allegedly takes less exercise than at any time in known history, and is obsessively focused on eating all the wrong kinds and quantities of food.

According to a new report, the majority of British people will by 2050 be seriously overweight - obese, in fact. The risk to health and fitness of such a level of obesity has been described as a potential catastrophe second only to global warming.

I don't know quite how true that is - statistics can be interpreted and projected to back up almost anything you want - but I do know that it doesn't have to be that way.

Unless it's caused by a medical condition or a disability, obesity isn't something that just happens, without anything that you can do about it. Becoming overweight is the result of regularly taking in more calories than you can use, and those extra calories being stored as fat.

It isn't pleasant being overweight. It isn't comfortable, either physically or emotionally. It isn't good for you... and it's seriously bad for how you feel about yourself.

You don't have to put up with it, though. Just make yourself a promise that you'll eat a little less, and exercise a little more... and keep it.

Eat a salad once a day, instead of junk food. Walk to work, or to the shops, instead of using transport. To tone your muscles with as little physical demand on you as possible, try the gentle exercise of yoga, qi gong, or t'ai chi.

A regular, committed effort will do far more lasting good than a crash diet or exhausting fitness schedule that you'll struggle through for a week or so and then give up on.

If you need some help to change your diet or your eating habits, you could visit Achieve Your Perfect Weight - And Stay There, and for encouragement to take more exericse and to improve your health and fitness, you might want to click on Teach Your Mind To Train Your Body.

Whatever kind of fancy name it's given, obsessing about people being overweight won't put the situation right.

Focusing on the outcome that you want, not one you don't want, can.

Diet Eating Any Food You Like!

A lot of people think that if you're on a diet eating food you like is strictly off the menu. That's not true – in fact, if you're on a diet eating foods you like is utterly essential if you're going to stick with it and not give up from sheer distaste or total boredom!

It's not what food you're eating that affects your weight, but how much energy (and yes, that does mean calories) that food contains. An excess of certain kinds of food, like fat, may well affect your health and fitness, so of course you need a healthy balance, but purely from the point of view of how much weight you might put on or lose it makes no difference.

100 calories of carrots will have exactly the same effect on your weight as 100 calories of chocolate. You'll get a whole lot bigger helping of the carrots for 100 calories than you will of chocolate (which, depending on whether carrots are a kind of food you like, you may feel is a good thing... or you may not not!), but it's the amount of calories you're eating that affects your weight, and not the kind of food you get them from.

That means that even on a diet eating any kind of food you want is fine... as long as you don't exceed the calorie allowance that your diet gives you.

You don't need to give up every kind of food you like – just eat it in sufficient moderation that it doesn't wreck your chances of success. Don't let it sabotage the number of the calories you're taking in, though – just adapt your menu for the day to make quite sure you keep to your allowance.

If you find that hard to stick to, you might like to check out Achieve Your Perfect Weight – And Stay There! at Supreme-Success.com for some support. Just because you're on a diet eating doesn't have to be a guilty pleasure – or a total misery!
