Are you trying to lose weight and get healthy, but haven’t seen any positive results? If you’ve been following a one-size-fits-all diet plan, that may be the reason why.
Every person on this planet is unique – that includes you. To reach optimal health, you need a plan that’s just as unique as you are.
A cookie-cutter approach won’t cut it.
What works for one person may not work for you. If you’ve reached a dead-end in your quest for optimal health, it may be time to take a different approach: a personalized one.
Why Optimal Health Looks Different For Every Person
Why does one person’s diet and lifestyle work for them, but not for you? The answer is simple: every body is different.
Optimal health doesn’t come with a specific BMI, height, weight or age. It differs for everyone. Extreme highs and lows, both in body fat and weight, are generally unhealthy. But within those in-between ranges is a limitless variety of body shapes and sizes – each being healthy in their own way.
You may be your healthiest at 20% body fat. Your sister may be her healthiest at 24% body fat. Everyone is different. And outer beauty is not an indicator of true health. Thin people can suffer from nutritional deficiencies and excess body fat (yes, excess body fat) as well. Even if you’re at a healthy weight, you may be dealing with troublesome digestive issues, fatigue, food cravings and other issues that leave you feeling less-than “optimal”.
When taking steps to improve your health, there are several things that need to be considered, including:
- Metabolic factors: If you’re suffering from diabetes, high blood pressure, excess body fat or other metabolic issues, your diet and exercise regimen needs to be carefully planned with these issues in mind.
- Age and gender: Your age and gender will impact your health needs.
- Allergies and sensitivities: From gluten to nuts, lactose and chemical additives, allergies and sensitivities to certain foods or ingredients will play a role in the effectiveness of your diet.
- Activity and fitness level: If you lead a sedentary lifestyle, your metabolism and energy levels may not be high enough for a one-size-fits-all plan to be effective.
With so many variables in place, it’s incredibly difficult to find a diet and exercise plan that works for everyone.
What can you do, then, if a typical cookie-cutter plan isn’t going to cut it?
If you’re serious about changing your lifestyle to become a happier, healthier you, a health coach – like me – can help you reach your goals.
