10 Strategies for Successful Weight Loss Part 6

Weight-Loss Strategy #6. Plan for exercise, and incorporate physical activity as much as possible into your daily life.

Choose activities that are convenient and enjoyable for you to do on a regular basis, and then treat exercise like any other appointment—set a time and jot it down in your date book.

Many people find it easier to exercise first thing in the morning, before the demands of the day interfere, but others find lunchtime or right after work more convenient.

Try to incorporate more physical activity into your life daily as well. For example, walk to the store instead of driving, get off the bus or train one stop earlier or later and walk the rest of the way, take the stairs up or down instead of the elevator, park further away from the store than the first place right in front of it, and you will soon see how the weight will start to come off.
