Why One Day of Healthy Behaviors Just Isn't Enough

Have you ever undertaken a healthy lifestyle change and been disappointed that you did not see the results in the timeframe you wanted? There are a couple of reasons why this happens:

Your goals are unrealistic. Most people come into a new workout or diet plan thinking the pounds will melt off in a matter of weeks. Not true. Body fat happens over days, weeks, and months - not in one day or overnight. Eating a salad for lunch doesn't negate or cancel out a heaping of pasta at dinner. This brings me to the next reason:

Your actions are not consistent. Most hormonal processes that affect your body's ability to lose stored fat fluctuate over days, weeks, and months. It will take weeks, for instance, to notice a big difference in your body's insulin sensitivity (how readily your cells will respond to insulin and take blood sugar out of your blood).

Be Patient. A healthy body takes time.The average lifespan of a cell in your body will range from a few days to a few months. Those cells are built out of what you put into your body. Right now, you are made of everything you've eaten for roughly the last 3 months. It will take about 3 more months of clean eating and exercise to replace unhealthy cells with healthy, supercharged ones. Don't give up!
