Why is it important to combine good nutrition with exercise for maximum weight loss?
The best programs have an equal emphasis on the cornerstones of losing weight – diet and exercise. As anyone who’s ever tried a fad diet knows, there are no shortcuts to success. The quick weight loss at the beginning of the diet is generally followed by an equally large weight gain as soon as the diet is completed. Exercise is necessary to reinforce any weight loss and achieve better health. In the Step Ahead program, we add medical supervision so that diet and exercise plans take into consideration any health issues that are present. This integrated approach to weight loss results in more effective — and safe — results.
