It ’ s time to take a different approach to losing weight and becoming healthier — change your lifestyle !
We know that the foundation of a healthy lifestyle includes physical activity and consuming a balanced diet containing a variety of nutrient-rich foods and beverages in moderation . We may know this — but research shows that as many as 82 % of adult Americans don ’ t want to give up foods they like in order to eat healthier ! Additionally , 68 % of Americans don ’ t eat fruits and vegetables at least twice per day , while 62 % say they have no time to track their diet . What ’ s more , 60 % of us juggle both work and family and prefer to prepare meals in just 15 minutes . This explains why most people don ’ t stick with their weight loss diet plans .
