Lost 40 Pounds and Lowered Cholesterol

Upon being laid off from a very stressful job last year, I decided not to be defeated emotionally or physically by the upheaval. So I embarked on your regimen of exercise, healthy eating, and positive thinking. As a result, I lost 40 pounds. In addition, my cholesterol went down from a whopping 290 to 140! I feel both emotionally and physically better than I ever felt before.

SOME PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS

The following are some ideas for maintaining an exercise program:

• Exercise at the same time every day. Once you get used to doing that, skipping a session will feel like you left something behind.

• Do it first thing in the morning. If you push off exercising for “later on” in the day, you risk missing your workout.

• Keep the program simple and practical. Do not make unrealistic, grandiose goals.

• Minimize musculoskeletal injuries with a moderate exercise intensity and rate of progression.

• Remember to track your exercise program with our diet diaries.

• Recognize accomplishments through a nonfood reward system. When you accomplish one of your goals, treat yourself to a massage or night out.

• Switch exercises if you’re not enjoying them. Remember, if you’re not happy, you will ultimately fail.

• Do something you enjoy while exercising. For example, listen to music or watch your favorite TV show. This adds to the psychosomatic effect of the exercise.

• Exercise with a friend or at the gym. You will make a good friend.

• Choose an “at-home” sport. For those of you with a limited amount of time each day or for bad-weather days, it’s crucial to have an indoor exercising option.
