- 4 essential ingredients for weight loss success
We all want to look and feel our best. But no single diet or exercise program is ever going to be enough unless it also factors in your total health and wellbeing.
Diet and exercise alone are not enough.
Sure, they can make a difference, but if you want a life changing, energy boosting transformation that stands the test of time, you need to do more than just eat better and move more.
You need a balanced lifestyle plan to help the body function at its best. A holistic approach that supports your immunity delivers mental clarity and helps to prevent illness.
Time to FESS up!
I believe there are 4 key ingredients to successful weight management:
- Food – Eating a balanced diet that nourishes your body without excessive kilojoules.
- Exercise – Being active, strong, fit and flexible.
- Sleep - Striving to achieve good sleep quality and quantity so you wake up energised.
- Stress management – Try to relax more while preventing and managing the stress in your life
Food, exercise, sleep and stress - these 4 factors are inter-related, and impact on each other. The healthiest possible diet is never going to be enough to help you lose weight if you are sleep deprived. And no amount of training can compensate for chronic stress and emotional binge eating.
For weight loss to be successful and lasting, you'll need to FESS up, and place equal emphasis on all 4. While an eating and activity plan is worthwhile, don't underestimate the importance of sleep and stress management to help you get results.
Gaining control over your stress levels and sleep habits will also make healthy eating and regular exercise a whole lot easier.
The take home message -realise the equal importance of all 4 FESS factors, and identify what areas you need to work on.
