The best celebrity weight loss recommendation
Yesterday I listened to a radio interview with one of our favourite ex-Olympic swimmers who has gained a lot of excess weight since he stopped competing internationally.
The question was put to him how he had lost his weight recently, as he has lost approximately 5kg’s in as many weeks.
He said that he started to eat healthy, no more takeaway, very little alcohol and lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. He also said he has been exercising regularly.
So of course the radio DJ’s make some jokes, “what do you mean you are just eating well and working hard, but we don’t want to hear that, we want the majic pill we can take to lose weight”.
Quite clearly they were joking on the surface, but the problem is, most people are still looking for that majic pill, in the form of a fad diet or funky new exercise program that will set the world on fire.
But, our swimmer said “no, honestly guys, you just have to eat healthy and find some form of exercise you enjoy doing and do it regularly. Consistency is the key!”
Wow, my favourite word in regards to reaching your goals, is “consistency” and here it was being spoken by the guy who is losing weight by doing it the real way.
It was awesome to hear and I hope everyone who was listening took notice and made some kind of decision to change their ways.
Stop looking for the quick fix.
* Exercise the way you enjoy regularly. Try to do some form of exercise 5 – 6 days per week.
* Eat healthy. This means salad, vegetables, fruit, protein. Limit junk food and alcohol.
It really is that simple, health works from the inside out!
