Get and Stay Active
To lose weight, you need to expend more calories than you expend. Therefor, your fat loss efforts don’t have to be limited to your exercise routine. How active you are throughout the day affects how healthy you are by improving metabolism and increasing the number of calories you "burn" during the day. Maximize every opportunity to be active to lose weight. Exercise doesn't have to be limited to the track or the gym. You can greatly increase the amount of physical activity your body gets by making small lifestyle changes to lose weight. Here's a few simply examples:

- Try to get in the habit of taking the stairs instead of the elevator.
- Keep your athletic shoes in the car so you're always prepared.
- Take a brisk walk after lunch before returning to work.
- Choose a hike or a bike ride instead of a movie.

These don't take a lot of extra time and are well worth the extra effort. Besides burning additional calories and "jump-starting" your metabolism, these changes keep us focused and productive, moving in the right direction to a healthier lifestyle, to lose weight, and for better, long-term results. You might be interested in using our free Calorie Calculator, where you'll find out how many calories your body "burns" (used or expended) for more than 70 different exercises/activities.
