I picked up Oxygen's Fat Loss issue last night and read an interesting column written by the Publisher, Robert Kennedy. Kennedy states:
"How many times have you been told that losing weight is all about diet and exercise? It never fully registers, does it? We either hate to exercise or we hate to diet, when in reality we know we have to do both. Sometimes though, it's tough to accept.
I know many women who are regular gym-goers; women who actually build up quite a sweat four days a week. But they make one mistake--they think that as long as they train regularly they can eat whatever they want. Then there are the dieters who keep it clean but neglect to train. They lose weight but have no shape and zero body tone.
Your fitness can only come from a two-sided approach. You have to eat correctly and train regularly. And when you adopt this two-sided attack, magic happens. I actually get frustrated when I see women who either diet or exercise, but never do both.
. . .
Soooo, I would like you to consider, just for an instant, that I could possibly be correct in stating that it's not one or the other; it's both. . ."
Wow! He hit the nail right on the head. I'm definitely an exerciser. I have no trouble getting my time in every week and actually quite enjoy it. It's the diet that I struggle with and that's where I need to concentrate and improve.
I was wondering about the rest of you. So, which do you all hate?
