The Secret to Lasting Weight Loss

    Do you ever find yourself wondering if you'll Ever lose those extra pounds? You know - the ones lingering around your waistline and stomach. You're not alone. You and several million other well meaning, hard working,  busy people are in  much the same boat! We all have seemingly countless demands upon our time and resources.

So, what's the answer to your time crunch? How do you fit  30 to 45 minutes of exercise into your hectic schedule every day?

Sometimes the pressures of raising children and caring for parents can seem overwhelming. Do you ever just want to throw your hands up and give up?

Take heart. You don't have to give up. Find just 15 or 20 minutes and get out in the fresh air where you can calm your soul and hasten your heartbeat! Pick up that jump rope and jump for as long as you can while watching your favorite show.

Encourage your children to join you in a race around the block! See if you can beat them! ( If you can - you're far better off than many of us! )

Don't have time to head out to the local gym or health club? The weather outside too cold?  No worries! Grab a few inexpensive pieces of home fitness equipment and work out in the comfort of home!

Take care of yourself and you'll be in better shape to take care of those you love and care most about! Do whatever you can to sneak in a few minutes here and there.  A couple 20 minute workouts add up to your daily quota! And some experts say that you'll burn even more calories with two shorter workouts!

Be a little selfish - make time for exercise!
