Getting in shape can happen at any age -- despite what we may have seen or heard in the media. In fact, it's never too late to get healthy -- here's why.
We don't even know how many lies we've heard about getting in shape. One of the first was that we weren't supposed to eat any fat -- like at all -- if we wanted to lose weight. After all, eating fat means we get fat, right? Anyone else have a mom who stocked the fridge with weird, chemical flavors of fat-free yogurt, like"Key Lime Pie" and"Caramel Sundae?" Luckily, that was a just strange trend of the 80s and 90s.
It also turns out that we didn't actually ever need any of the weird gadgets that were sold in the old days. Ours was a household where mom was super definitely into all the trends of the moment, including the Thigh Master. While any trendy new exercise regime can be great if it helps us get into shape and inspires us , exercise trends are also really, really, profoundly unnecessary -- and can be a distraction from some of the basics that can really help us get where we want to be.
