A winning weight-loss combo

A winning weight loss combo is one that includes both healthy eating as well as exercise. A good approach to losing weight is to approach eating and training with the same mindset.
Here are four things to bear in mind:
1. You have to be consistent. Just like you can't only do a long run and expect to finish a race well, you can't focus on your diet for just a few days a week.
2. One bad run, doesn't ruin your training, and one bad meal (or a day of bad eating) doesn't derail your weight-loss quest. Lace back up and get out there.
3. Get to the starting line by setting small goals, like running for a kilometre beyond your current limit, or choosing a granola bar instead of sweets.
4. There are days you don't want to run and days you want to raid confectionary shops. Tell yourself that you'll just do three kilometres and chances are you will pass up the sweet temptations.
