Cutting Calories Is Not Enough
Dear Reader,
Experts have been saying this for a long time - lasting weight loss has to include both diet and exercise, and now some new research offers proof to the point.
Add regular exercise to your plans to cut calories and you'll find the combination of these two healthy habits leads to better results - not just in pounds dropped, but in lower blood pressure and better cholesterol numbers according to research set to appear in the January 2010 issue of the journal Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise.
The study involved assigning 36 overweight men and women (average age 39) to one of three different groups.
One group followed a diet plan that cut calories by 25%; the second group als cut calories, but by 12.5%, and exercised to the point where they were able to increase their energy output by 12.5%. The third group served as control subjects, sticking to a weight maintenance diet for the six months of the study.
The exercise prescription used varied depending on body weight at the start of the research. Typically the men walked briskly for 50 minutes, five days a week. Women worked out for 45 minutes, five days a week, but were able to choose the activity and intensity level of their exercise.
At the end of the six-month study, both the restricted calorie group and the calorie restriction plus exercise group lost almost 10% of their body weight.
The average weight of the subjects at the beginning of the research was almost 178 pounds, leaving participants with a loss of 17 pounds on average.
Beyond the pounds lost, those who included exercise in their program had better health outcomes. Blood pressure readings saw major improvements, even cholesterol numbers and insulin sensitivity got better.
"It's better to lose weight with a combination of caloric reduction and exercise rather than caloric reduction alone," said study author Dr. Enette Larson-Meyer, an assistant professor of family and consumer science at the University of Wyoming. Too many of us look to trendy, often expensive fad diets and exercise programs that don't promote a true healthy lifestyle, but rather a "quick fix" approach to health.

Cutting Calories Is Not Enough Continued...
To make the changes you need to live a healthy lifestyle, experts suggest you work with a professional wellness coach, especially when you've tried and had little success in the past.
These pros can help you decide on a restricted calorie-eating plan that still gives you enough of the nutrients your body needs, as well as allows for treats you enjoy.
Professionals are also incredibly helpful when it comes to designing a healthy, safe workout, especially for those who are obese, have chronic health problems, orthopedic problems or been inactive for a long while.
Of course making one change is hard enough, but two at the same time can be a real challenge.
Start by identifying what is really important to you (your long term health and quality of life, for example) and then take small, measurable steps toward that goal.
Slow and steady change, always working toward your overall healthy lifestyle goal, is the best way to have you feeling well, being well, today and in the future.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
