People have a lot of excuses when it comes to exercising and eating healthy. Do any of these sound familiar to you?
"I just don't have time to work out."~ This is the most commonly heard excuse and it's also a bunch of bologna! MAKE TIME! We make time for lots of things in our busy schedules. Getting haircuts, watching our favorite TV shows or even grocery shopping. It only takes 30 minutes to fit in a little exercise. What's 30 minutes?! You don't have to go to a gym to do it. A Swiss ball and resistance bands can be used while you watch that favorite TV show. Buy an exercise DVD to use at home. Go for a walk after dinner. It CAN be done!
"I have kids so I have to keep some junk food snacks around for them."~ Replace junk food with healthy options. If the junk food isn't in our pantry, then how can you eat it?
"I have a lot of social gatherings and business events to go to and the food isn't healthy."~ One option is to eat something light before you go so you won't be tempted to indulge in fatty appetizers and food. Perhaps you could bring something to the gathering so that you are assured a healthy option. Pass on the alcohol too. It just makes you sleepy and sluggish! If you're worried about offending someone, don't be preachy. Just say no thank you to the unhealthy food choice.
Try out some of these ideas and you'll see how easy it is to live healthy!!
