Because I get migraines, I eat a (small to medium sized) healthy snack about every two hours. Not only does this reduce my headache frequency, it ensures I eat less when it comes to my main meals.

I also reckon that a lot of people choose january 1st to embark on a fitness programme, i usually tell ppl to wait (if they seem like the sort of person who might lose interest quickly) and here is why. 1. you've just emerged from one of the most excessive food and drink periods of the year, talk about putting your body into a state of shock with a diet and fitness. start to eat healthily. 2. its the middle of winter, with long, cold, dark evenings, this is not a good time to motivate yourself after you've had a dreadful day at the office to get to the gym. start walking lots more esp. at lunchtime. 3. dont give the high street gym's the satisfaction of having you signed up for a year and you only use it for first month or so. instead i say....... wait until spring, its only a few months later and i guarantee that ppl who may be lacking in motivation for new years resolution will be more successful. new years is just an effect of a calendering system dont let it mess with your plans for fitness. mike Hi, Sound advice.

I also reckon that a lot of people choose january 1st to embark on a fitness programme, i usually tell ppl to wait (if they seem like the sort of person who might lose interest quickly) and here is why.

1. you’ve just emerged from one of the most excessive food and drink periods of the year, talk about putting your body into a state of shock with a diet and fitness. start to eat healthily.

2. its the middle of winter, with long, cold, dark evenings, this is not a good time to motivate yourself after you’ve had a dreadful day at the office to get to the gym. start walking lots more esp. at lunchtime.

3. dont give the high street gym’s the satisfaction of having you signed up for a year and you only use it for first month or so.

instead i say…….

wait until spring, its only a few months later and i guarantee that ppl who may be lacking in motivation for new years resolution will be more successful.

new years is just an effect of a calendering system dont let it mess with your plans for fitness.

I think I'll start by eating healthier instead of the usual fast food at lunch while at work. Well, maybe at least better choices at the places I go to. =D I never really tried crash dieting but I need to lose some weight.

Those indulging in starvation diets have no clue what they are doing. They think that eating less foods even down to 1 meal per day and snacking tidbits here and there will make them lose weight. Big mistake. Getting in starvation mode restricts calories and lowers the body metabolism drastically. A slow metabolism is not good for burning fat and losing weight. As a result, people get hunger pangs and overeat after causing their body to store more fat. Eating too much per meal will make your body more prone to building fat. Great article.
