Exercise

Exercise is a vital part of healthy weight loss or maintaining weight. It's so easy to make excuses not to exercise. Exercise can help burn extra calories and improve weight loss. Finding ways to get past excuses can help you stick to an exercise routine. Some common excuses you may use include:

"I don't have time," "I'm embarrassed about how I look," or "I've tried and it didn't work."

When you find yourself making excuses, try to come up with a solution.

Lack of time does not have to be an excuse when you can count even short 5 or 10 minute periods of physical activity. A quick 5 minute walk down the street, 10 minutes lifting hand weights while you're cooking (i.e. waiting for water to boil, or the oven to heat up to the right temperature), or 15 minutes vacuuming your house, all contributes to your time spent being active.

There's no need to be embarrassed about how you look exercising. It's natural to feel self-conscious in the beginning. However, the more often you do it, the more comfortable you'll feel. Also, you can always start with activities in the privacy of your own home.

If you've tried an exercise activity before and didn't seem to get results, think about why it may not have worked. Did you enjoy the activity? How long did you stick to it? Duration is more effective than pushing yourself too hard. Participating in activities of moderate intensity that you enjoy will help you stay committed and see better results.

Excuses are easy to make, but it's not difficult to come up with solutions. Try to determine ways to incorporate more calorie-burning activities in your day.
