For better health, know your Cholesterol Ratio

Motivating Toward a Better Ratio

Beware: 2 steps forward and 3 steps back

It’s no secret that you have to be motivated in order to change your behaviour. When you think back to past attempts at getting in shape or losing weight, do you see a pattern?

Do you start out with the best intentions and do well for a few weeks…but then falter? Do you hit a point where you just give up, or does the behaviour just fade out gradually? Either way, you end up feeling bad about yourself.

This shows that starting a new behaviour is easier than continuing a new behaviour. Unfortunately, in order to reach and maintain a healthy LDL and Cholesterol Ratio, you need to make changes that last – following a healthy meal plan, incorporating activity into your lifestyle and sticking to your medication schedule if your doctor has prescribed one. www.knowyourratio.ca can help you avoid this "2 steps forward, 3 steps back" trap so that you can change for good.
