For years I was an avid 5:30am exerciser - first my 3-5 mile run, then 40 minutes of weights - I never had a weight problem during those times (gee, I wonder why!), and I always had tons of energy and was never sick. As the years went on, my exercise times had to vary based on my kids' schedules, work, etc. And somehow I fell out of the early exercise routine and slipped to afternoon, then evening, then whenever I could fit it in.
Why should I try to have a healthy diet?
Having a healthy diet is one of the most important things you can do to help your overall health. Along with physical activity, your diet is the key factor that affects your weight. Having a healthy weight for your height is important. Being overweight or obese increases your risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, breathing problems, arthritis, gallbladder disease, sleep apnea (breathing problems while sleeping), osteoarthritis, and some cancers.
