Less than five percent of all people who begin diets stick to them, and today's busy lifestyles leave little room for regular exercise. On top of that, the diet industry offers quick-fix weight-loss aids that have no staying power. Reality Fitness offers a reasonable, workable alternative. This short, simple book is designed for busy women with families and professional responsibilities.The author, a motivational speaker and personal trainer (and mother of four), is proof that a long-term approach to fitness works best. Twenty years ago she lost 50 pounds and has kept them off through a sensible regime of exercise and good nutrition. In the book, she offers straight talk on breaking through negative thought patterns and society's pressures to fit a certain image. She provides a new definition of fitness based on a simple approach to nutrition, a balanced exercise program, and positive thinking.
