Some of us get wrapped up in the wrong things in life and we don’t take care of ourselves. How does this happen you might ask. We think that we are multi-taskers but in reality, we aren’t very good at it. We try and do more than we can do and become overloaded. This can happen to anyone, but a lot of us don’t realize it’s happening to them.
You can easily analyze your own situation by stepping back for a minute and looking at your life from an outsider's point of view.
Are you skipping meals? Do you make time for exercise? How much did you weigh when you got out of High School? How much do you weigh now? Are you eating healthy foods? Are you sleeping 7 hours a night?
Often we can find out for ourselves if we have a health problem if we can be objective. Americans often rush through their day so fast just to get it over with and never slow down to see what they’re doing wrong.
We cause our own health problems by not paying attention to our bodies ' needs. We constantly ignore our health and we are ignoring the things in our life that are difficult to manage. We rush so fast through our day just to get the work over with so we can do things that we enjoy doing. We have become obsessed with finding more ways to entertain ourselves rather than concentrating on the things that matter.
It was never like this a couple generations ago. I see this problem that we have in our modern world is that technology has advanced so rapidly that we all have this thirst for knowledge and have become obsessed with having all the new gadgets. Thank God that this next generation is trying to pay more attention to their health and their physical condition. We’ll have to see what happens to them as they grow older.
If you are concerned at all with your health and have been reading my posts and other health blogs, you probably know that your body fat is the cause of most health problems. To avoid those problems you should lose body fat and how do you do that? Simply, change the foods you eat and increase your activity.
All of us sit too much. It’s not all your fault. Today most Americans work sitting down. Actually, that’s the reason most people are overweight. One hour at the gym every day can’t make up for 8 hours of sitting. Have you ever noticed that people who have to work standing up are thinner on average than people who work sitting down? For instance, most people who work in retail, as a cashier, on average are thinner than an office worker.
If you spend your workday sitting 90% of the time and going home and sitting more after dinner and then spending 8 hours in bed, how much stand and moving around are you really doing. This might surprise you but the average office worker only spends about 4 hours a day on their feet.
This is a major change from a few generations ago when our grandparents spent 12 hours a day minimum on their feet. So the results are that we are heavier and have poor circulation and several other health problems that have all sprung up recently because the population is growing fatter.
