Light Weight - Light as a Feather!

The odd thing about our weight is that all of us start out in life at about the same weight - give or take just a few pounds.  

As time marches on, a spurt of growth may leave some of us leaner, and thinner than ever while many of us are doomed to eternal shortness.  

For most of us, food wasn't an important element during our childhood days. Mom and Dad had the dickens of a time getting us inside the house at dinner time as most of us would rather have played outdoors until the sunset and the booger bear came out.

And during our childhood there were so many foods that we may not have liked - but as time went on some of us even learned to love homemade fried liver and onions.

Then somewhere along life's path, some of us traveled down dangerous trails that led to unwanted pounds.  By the time that we had put on those unwanted pounds, we had become enchanted with the path - unable to venture back onto the more healthy Daily Diet Trail.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we never had to worry about gaining weight - if we were all light weights and light as a feather?  If we were all within just a few pounds of one another - even after we grew up?  If our weight was naturally amended to suit our frame size rather than our Passion for Food Size?

Yes - that would be wonderful and some day, perhaps achievable.  Until then, the following tips may be of help in keeping those pounds at bay:

Incorporate those favorite foods into your daily diet plan and exercise control over serving size.  What's life if you can't live a little?

Consider taking up an activity that you enjoy such as ballet, photography, skating, bowling - anything that will get you moving.

Keep in mind that relaxation is equally important to activity when it comes to your good health.
