ARE WE TOO OBSESSED WITH DIETS  &  EXERCISE? 

Picture
 
Unless you are from a different planet, it is impossible to escape the barrage of information about different diets, and not notice that fitness has recently been quite a trend.  People have tried or been trying Atkins, Paleo, Keto, Vegetarian, Vegan, low fat, high fat, South Beach, Cabbage, Weight Watchers, Zoom, Noom and the topic of a diet might not be as big as Covid, but probably bigger than anything else.  As a society, we have been also working out more than ever, yet are not getting any healthier. Chronic conditions, obesity, mental illnesses, and addictions are in fact all-time high these days.

 
It is also worth pointing out that just because someone is skinny, it does not mean they are well and healthy.  Even though body fat is one of the biggest culprits of inflammation, and should not be ignored, eating disorders are deadly and debilitating too, so let’s not confuse someone’s weight with wellness. Anorexia, bulimia, but also unhealthy obsession with healthy foods called orthorexia, are on the rise amongst both women but also men, and let’s not forget about the newish term - skinny fat.

 
Let’s also not confuse fitness with wellness. There are many people who make exercise an important part of their daily routine, but they often turn it from what is supposed to be healthy into an unhealthy obsession.  One thing it is to be kind to yourself and to love, respect and care for yourself, but another to obsess.  Even though healthier than drinking, gambling, or addiciton to sex, when you exercise too much and are not training for the Olympics, you are probably using it as some sort of an escape as well. 

 
Finally, when you use exercise to lose weight, because you are extremely motivated to do so, you might not be realizing that you might be in fact creating a vicious cycle.  People who use exercise to lose weight often become a slave to their workouts and then eat more after all anyways.  While exercise is a way to maintain weight, It is a quite useless when it comes to weight loss as we gain 100% of our weight from the food we eat, and that one hour on a treadmill can be nulled by eating something in a five minutes or less.

 
So why am I writing all that?  Maybe we should stop thinking about diets, and fitness, but about our holistic wellness instead?  Truth is that while many people focus on weight loss, they do it often with disregard for their health.  All their motivation and self-discipline is used up on creating unhealthy relationships with food and exercise that often stem from unhealthy relationships people have with themselves.  So how do you turn things around and how do you get not only skinny or fit, but first of all well?  Stay tuned to find out or request a free wellness consult.

2020 is coming to an end. Many people will be soon making New Year's Eve resolutions and making unrealistic commitments and unsustainable changes into their lives. According to U.S. News & World Report, the failure rate for New Year's resolutions is said to be about 80 percent, and most people lose their resolve by mid-February. The rest will last a bit longer, but overall at least 95% of people will fail. There are many reasons for it, but some of them include lack of knowledge and guidance, setting unrealistic and unhealthy goals, trying to lose weight or achieving other goals too fast without properly addressing the mind first. While it is true that healthy body leads to a healthy mind, we need to have the right foundation to be successful long term or for life. The foundation should be self-awareness and knowledge of your own body and mind so many people do not have and do not want to take time to get to know, but instead take on exercise programs or diets not good for their specific needs and for their health. Once you have the foundation, your next step should be SMART goals, and this is once again where most people fail so fast and most by mid-February. They want to lose weight too fast, and can only last so long. Usually, they fall off the wagon because they can't keep up with the regimen they put themselves or even their trainer on or because they lose motivation which was unhealthy to begin with. Unhealthy motivation or its lack also often leads to failure. If your motivation is to look good for a high school reunion, or for a date, this challenge is not for you. There are many programs out there if you are looking for a quick fix of something that took years of unhealthy habits or even your entire life to acquire, but this one is not for you. This challenge, unlike others, is for those who want to become healthier on the inside out for themselves and not for others. This challenge is for those people who are motivated by goals such as longevity, health, wellness, mental toughness, and feeling and looking good on the inside out, so they can have a higher quality of life, and be happier with themselves. This challenge is for those who are willing to put in some effort instead of looking for miracles and quick fixes, but it is going to be definitely one you can sustain and come out of feeling victorious. As you go through it, you will be gaining not only better and healthier body, but also more mental and emotional strength. Sign up for it now. Stay tuned for more. Posts will start coming weekly the first Sunday of 2021. Welcome to the challenge!

    I am Marta Kirit, M.Ed and a 42 year old mom  of 2 that  has always been passionate about fitness and helping people get in shape as a fitness trainer but  have always known that diets and exercise programs are not enough because they do not address the mind, and that people needed more than exercise and diet program to reach their goals and sustain them long term. Fitness training rarely addresses the mind or emotional aspects of wellness or individual differences.  When pregnant with my now 6.5 year old daughter, I took health, wellness and anti-aging to a different level, and shifted my  fitness oriented mind and lifestyle into all aspects of wellness for a more balanced,  and healthier life. I do not spend a lot of time working out like I used to,  but I make sure I address other aspects of wellness as they are equally important. This challenge is a result of years of research that has proven to work for myself and others.  I am quite positive it will be most successful , and least expensive, program for many people as well as  long term too.
