Diets may help you lose weight in the short run. But if you want to keep it off, forget the diet and adopt an active lifestyle. That's the advice fitness guru Sally Edwards gives today in a story in the Orlando Sentinel. "Losing weight is very, very hard and takes a very long time. And dieting alone, the research shows, is typically not sustainable," she says.
"But an active, healthy lifestyle is sustainable. And once you start exercising, the eating -- and often the smoking and the drinking and the watching too much TV -- will take care of themselves." Edwards, 59, is a noted endurance athlete and fitness author. She stays in shape with a wide variety of workouts, including running, weight-lifting and inline skating. Related reading: | ||||||||
