Is a Diet Without an Exercise Regime Futile?

The biggest mistake people make, when dieting, is to assume that a diet is there to help them to lose weight. This is not the case. The result of a healthy diet is weight loss, if you are overweight or obese, but the reason why you are picking up a diet plan is to improve the quality of your nutrition, to provide your body with the necessary nutrients and to learn how to eat properly. Weight loss is just a side effect, signifying that you are doing it right, for a change.

Same thing can be said for your exercise regime. Your body is built for certain activities, which should not be a problem for you. As soon as some regular activities, like getting up off a chair or walking to the supermarket to pick up groceries, seem like work, you know that you need to exercise. Unless you want to run a marathon or pick up professional sports, you do not need to exercise like a professional; if you have a personal trainer who makes you run fifteen miles every day and then schleps you into a gym for weight lifting, it is time to evaluate your goals and ask the trainer to show you his or her professional license.

Yes, you will lose weight more properly if you exercise while dieting. No, you don’t need to go hungry all the time; if you are exercising, the idea is to spend the calories, not to starve you to shape. That is why you would need a personal trainer, for instance, because you can provide him or her with a diet schedule that you have, or had made by a nutritionist, then this trainer can provide you with a sensitive exercise plan that will burn the calories and a little bit more, in order to lose the excess fat you are harboring.

The reason why many people go around eating a salad a day and one or two fruits is because they are not exercising, any calorie they eat will not be spent. Therefore, if you are working out and spending four hundred or five hundred calories in your workout, even if you eat your two thousand calories a day – depending on your diet plan – which is not much, but also not little, if you eat proper food, you are still losing weight!
