We may think of the word “diet” as simply cutting calories, fat, or sugar out of the daily foods we eat. However, I like to think that there is much more to it than that. So many diet trends are out there for everyone to choose from. I can think of Keto most predominantly, especially since I have many articles about it here on my website.

So, what more can be contributed to your diet or at least to your diet change? And I believe that to be your exercise pattern. It’s a great solution that can help with many different needs throughout life. More than just health and weight loss, there is the reduction and relief from stress, and releasing anger, among so much more.

I know that I have found it wonderful to get back to running after a great deal of time. I’ve tried so many of those “magic diets” that should help you lose weight without the need to exercise, but so many of the other issues that can cause weight gain are not removed from your life.

Things like trouble with family, stress at work, losing a job, and many others. All of those can add those issues to your body and force those hormones upon you that lead to weight gain. There is more to a diet than changing what you eat. It takes a change to your life, to how you live. And if you have a hard time coming to the solution of weight loss on your own, then maybe a doctor is the best person to offer a solution. At least to provide some recommendations of what the best solutions may be.
