When I started writing my Book Mas Tiempo I quickly realize I was spending on average 23 hour per week watching TV.

That’s another job…

Not only that I was gaining weight and that was a big problem.  I challenge you to find an alternative to watching hours of television a day even if think you cannot miss a particular show that you watch on a regular basis.

Since we can all agree now that television is a major contributor to weight problems, exercising seems like a logical thing to do as opposed to viewing hours of sitcoms. Not only is exercising an enjoyable way to kill a few hours it is also a great way to burn a few calories. Simply getting outside and going for a brisk walk not only helps one avoid the enticement that is television but also has a profusion of health benefits. Along with assisting one with weight loss, exercising can also increase the ability of the heart and lungs to function more efficiently and moreover help an individual feel better both inside and out.

Picking up a hobby is another excellent substitute for television. An individual can perhaps learn and develop a new skill, such as knitting or darts for example, or perhaps start a collection of something, which may even become a lifelong leisure pursuit for them. Reading is yet another fantastic option to aid with the evasion of television. Reading not only allows one to be imaginative but it also permits the expansion of the mind and promotes mental health.

and I know I’m not the only one…

maybe we don’t care about the benefits like better health, looking better, more stamina and so on and so for.

But what about the cost, I don’t want to spend unnecessary money in doctors, health insurance, and bigger cloth for that matter.

My question for you is are you exercising enough?

There is no scientific proof of this popular myth, but it continues to influence many parents.

Sometimes inaccurate theories can be harmful, such as when they stop parents from giving their children vaccinations that can prevent harmful diseases.

So go ahead, give your kids some sugar specially before bed time! (let me know how it goes)

and the only way you will keep gaining weight is to keep eating more that your body needs. Therefore, the only way to lose weight is to eat less (and exercise) that you body needs. If you are overweight, you are consuming more that you body need with your persona eating habits.

To reach and maintain you ideal weight (size) you must form new eating habits! (and exercise more)

To play it safe, work out the kinks by stretching instead. Lie on the floor with your hands behind your head. Keep you back straight and tighten your hip and abdominal muscles; hold for 5 to 10 seconds, and then relax. Now pull your right leg toward your chest while keeping your lower back flat and your head on the floor. Repeat with your left leg.
