Let's talk ; Diets and Dieting with beejay

When people hear the words diet and dieting, what comes to their mind is weight loss, which is accompanied by the picture of fat and obese persons. This,however, is far from being the case, for everyone,whether slim, plump, fat or obese is undertaking one form of dietimg or the other, albeit consciously or unconsciously. The problem in this might lie in the definition of diet many people have come to adopt. Diet basically has to do with the types of food and drink, nourishment and nutrition and the individual takes in the body. On the other hand, dieting is the process of watching what is consumed by the individual in to remain fit and healthy. Everyone should embrace a healthy diet regime, as a matter of fact, which the same as embarking on appropriate diet and dieting. In the same vein,not only the fat and obese but everyone should be concerned about his/her health condition. Nothing can be as misleading as the notion that only a category of persons needs to exercise and eat right. Slim people are as compelled as their fat counterparts to watch their weight and undertake appropriate exercises to be in shape. It is easy for slim people to get out of shape due to lack of exercise and bad diet. Diet and dieting determine the health status of an individual. It is usually said that people are what they eat. This shows tha the person that eats good,wholesome foods is likely to be fit and healthy, especially whe it is supported by appropriat exercise. On the contrary, the individual that indulges in junk foods and hardly undertake any form of exercise should not be suprised if some ailments and diseases set in sooner in life. Physical activities should be embarked upon daily. Simple, but effective exercises such as walking and aerobics come in handy in this regard. Climb the stairs instead of usind the elevator, walk down to the neighbour instead of driving and open the windows to access fresh air instead of putting on the air-conditioner all the time. An amazing result will be achieved by just engaging in simple everyday physical activites. If you have any questions or contributions,sound off below.
