The 80/20 Rule




I'm sure all of us have watched "Why Did I Get Married" by Tyler Perry and have heard of the 80/20 rule as it relates to relationships. Now, there is an 80/20 rule as it relates to eating healthy and dieting. With the new 80/20 rule, weight loss is seen as  80 percent of your diet and 20 percent about exercise. This simply means your food intake is substantially more important than how much you exercise if you are trying to lose weight. Don't get me wrong. Exercising is GREAT...but it can be seen as pointless if you are packing the calories, sugars, and fat back into your body after a long workout. Become more informed on what you put into your body so that it can make the greatest impact outside of your body. 

So as a simple suggestion...don’t go overboard with the weights when it’s what’s on your plate that really matters.
