By Karen Cohen, Certified Nutritionist
The New Year, 2009, is most certainly going to bring many changes.
January is a good time to make positive changes in one’s life; to resolve to eat healthier, start an exercise program or lose weight and maintain the loss. These objectives can only be achieved and sustained when healthy choices become part of one’s everyday existence.
Lifestyle modification, like calorie cutting and a regular exercise regime lead to successful long term results. Any program promising a “quick fix” does that only for a short while and then old habits find their way back.
In future newsletters, I will address issues such as the benefits of eating foods with a low glycemic index for a healthier body or creating a fitness program effective for one’s cardiovascular health as well as resistance training for muscle mass and flexibility.
My work with hundreds of patients has taught me that the success of a lifestyle-change program is enhanced if one has the proper support to help keep focused, motivated and accountable as one makes behavioral and habit changes.
I invite you to visit my website at www.learn2eatright.com for some of the answers and to call me (310-444-9755) to discuss how I can help you follow through on keeping your New Years Resolutions.
I wish everyone a very happy, peaceful and healthy 2009.
Karen
