Getting back in shape is one of the best things you can do for yourself, for each other, and for your family. Best of all, you two can do this thing together. Here are some health and fitness tips for couples to help get you started.
As you get started, try and think to when things started going south. When did you get lazy around each other? When did nights eating in front of the television set replace nights going out dancing? In those exciting earlier days chances are you both were a bit more active and exciting to be around. This is what you want to return to.
You can begin by quitting those food filled evenings watching the tube. In fact, you can cut out all snack eating period. Here is a sure fire way to begin losing weight, by eliminating useless snack foods. A good rule of thumb is to cut out anything with sugar and white flour in it. White food additives must be shunned.
So without those delicious doughnuts, what do you eat for breakfast? Here is where you can start having fun with your fitness. You can start cooking together, in your kitchen, making healthy, fat and sugar free meals. Try to outdo one another, try to surprise each other, and help feed each to the good stuff. You will have fun doing this, believe it.
Along with the proper diet habit you are going to have to do one other thing. You both are going to have to start moving your bodies more. Decreasing caloric intake while increasing the amount of calories burned off during the day equals weight loss; it is as simple as that. So you will have to exercise some how.
This does not mean going to some fancy gym or anything like that. What it means is that you should start walking together. Walk everywhere you can from now on. Walk to the store for those vegetables you are now eating instead of driving. Take those long romantic strolls along the beach that you have been dreaming about but never got around to. The time is now, so take each other by the hand and go for a walk.
Soon, something miraculous is going to happen. You will both start slimming down and gaining in energy. The direct result of this is that you two are going to start looking sexy again. This will lead to a better love life, which may be the best fitness program for couples ever invented! You will feel sexier, act sexier, and start having more sex, which just keeps the ball rolling along very nicely.
You see, getting in to great shape, and staying that way, does not have to be that difficult, self denying slog that you are afraid of. It can actually be a lot of fun. During the cooking and walking times you will find yourself communicating again, and happiness will result. And when you are both feeling friskier, well, you know about that kind of happiness. So follow these health and fitness tips for couples and rekindle you lives together.
