Sex – not that sex should ever be routine of course!
Day-to-day tasks are so useful for building up your total activity level. It’s just as effective to find your extra 1800 seconds in short bursts if one block of 30 minutes isn’t practical or possible.
Exercise Options for Less Mobile People
If you are one of those people who, for whatever reason, are unable to get about as well as most of us, please don’t take our emphasis on activity as meaning you won’t get results on the 7-day GL diet. You will. It may mean it takes you a little longer to reach your goals but it is possible to achieve weight loss by changing your diet alone.
If walking is a real problem for you then chair exercises can be very helpful. Some people find that swimming can also be great because the water supports their weight rather than their joints having to do the work. It’s really important to take advice from your health-care professionals before embarking on an activity plan. You may also find that your GP’s surgery or physiotherapy department can offer advice and ideas for less able people to increase their activity levels. Above all, don’t let your mobility difficulties prevent you from reaching your weight-loss goals.
“Having been on every diet written, I am always hoping for a miracle. I bought the GL book hoping this would be the one. At last I’ve found something realistic. The main reason is you really do have ‘freedom’ -no counting, no visits to supermarkets checking every packet for salt, fat, carb and calorie content. The book is easy; it all makes sense; the recipes are delicious and suitable for everyone; you don’t need to sit eating differently from the rest of civilization.
I have now lost 10lb – it’ not fast but it’s constant. I feel healthier and have noticed how much more energetic I am. I’m also shrinking in different places! This message is from a real person. I’m not a stick insect – I’m still a larger-than-life lady – but for the first time in many years I now have real hope that this is going to work and become a way of life.”
