Commit yourself to long term commitments


It is a proven fact that all diets have a temporary effect! The secret to losing weight is to make permanent choices in what we do. Here are some simple and easy long term commitments:

 

•   Commit yourself to whole-wheat bread
•   Drink fruit juices instead of soft drinks
•   Always select fruit as a dessert
•   When possible, start your meal with a fresh salad
•   Always opt for whole grain pasta, bread and rice
•   Take your time to eat; it takes time for your body to send its satisfaction signal
•   Always park your car far rather than near to enable you to get some walking exercise
•   Use the stairs in buildings

Be  positive about all of the choices above.

Forming good habits is the answer to long term health!


Some Wise Words

Listening 

Listening and hearing are two different things. When a person is truly listening they not only hear the words, but they feel the emotion behind these words. True communication occurs when someone truly listens and not just hears the words.
