If you have a desire to reduce the amount of fat on your body, rather than reducing the amount of food that you are eating, you should increase the amount of exercise that you are getting. During a national study that was conducted recently two groups of sedentary men were used, one group over the age of 65 and the other in their 20’s. Much was learned from the data that was accumulated and it was very interesting that there was an important relationship between fat and the lack of physical exercise. It was a surprise to nobody that the men who had the most body fat were the most sedentary men.

Everyone has heard the advice that a calorie is a calorie and if you eat less calories you will lose weight and if you eat more calories you will gain weight. However, may people believe the there is more to losing weight than a simple equation about calories. There are many new and improved methods to lose weight and they are becoming very popular. Americans annually spend approximately $42,000,000,000 on weight loss services, products, and foods. When there is that much money in play it’s no wonder that there are numerous weight loss products on the market.

Repetition is what forms both bad and good habits. There is no exception when it comes to eating. If you have a habit of eating a snack while you are watching television you are reinforcing that habit and it will become second nature to you. The same is true of other habits. Some of these habits include: eating while you are cooking dinner, eating after you come in from a date, eating when your children come home from school, eating as soon as you come home, and eating while you are reading.
