Dieting and Exercise is very important to stay fit
When it comes to staying fit, Exercise and dieting are the two important things one needs to do. You won't get a positive result or the result you desire if you slack off in any of the two.

It is easier said than done, anyone can come up with advice and routine to follow for losing weight, I mean higher percentage knows what they need to do to lose weight but most ain't ready to take the step.
Recently I tried shedding some weight, especially to get rid of my pot belly, I started doing homework, and also reduced the food I consumed and I was already seeing results after 4 days but the next day, I decided to eat heavy food and that was how I abandon the workout and started eating again and this time around, I found myself getting hungrier than before, I guess the training left some space in my body that I need to fill up and before I know it, I was back to square 1.
So many people are in this situation, they really want to lose weight but they lack consistency and dedication, starting something is easy but completing it is the hardest and this is why many give up along the way, with excuses like. I can't kill myself

The kind of food we eat does not help matters too, The calories in rice and bread are very high and could cause a fat belly but those two are life-saving and that is what most people in Nigeria consume.
My country does not have much food, so we depend on cheap food. The cost of cooking rice is less than preparing vegetable soup and pounded yam, so this makes most families make rice their number 1 food, in my place we eat rice every day and it is only once in a while that we don't.
The same thing as bread, this bread has a lot of combos, you can eat it with butter, fish, Pepsi, groundnut, jam, beans, egg, yogurt, stew, and so on, the list is long. It is another food we depend on in my country and we consume it a lot.
If you are really serious about losing weight, you have to stop eating food with high calories like the two examples I gave above, eat more fruits and perform rigorous exercise...
There are different kinds of exercises you can do without going to the gym, plank, push-ups, sit-ups, jogging, and running. Walking is also a form of exercise, the main thing is you have to be consistent which is what many people lack, they take it seriously in the first week and start losing interest in it and that marks the end of their goal
If you want to stay fit, make dieting and exercise a habit!

They work hand in hand
I can’t be eating mayonnaise everyday and expect my exercise to work
It will work but take more time…
it won't even work because as you exercise and lose weight, the mayonnaise will make it add again
Working out isn't the problem as you have said, the problem is being consistent, most people lack that second part, they will just go to the gym today, and the next day they are already exhausted😁😁.
You're right, the two works perfectly together and you'll get the result you're looking for faster
Some people want to lose weight and yet, they consume a bowl of Eba in the morning with plenty calories and start jogging 😃...
It's difficult for most of us to eat healthy here..it's all about rice and yam and garri..
Healthy food and physical exercise are great combos for a healthy living
My weight is Again increased. I want to loose my fat but I am lacking the motivation. I have to come out of my comfort zone to stay consistent.
you are not the only one brother, we are many on this table
Eating healthy is costly, honestly. In some homes it's what can be afforded is what will be cooked. In a situation as this, physical exercise is very important.
But then,
Consistency to a thing is very important, whether eating healthy or going for exercises.
I've been trying to make going for long walks everyday a habit but I kind of fall in and out of it depending on the circumstances of the day or week. I think any form of exercise that we can make a part of our lifestyle will help immensely in keeping fit.
i do this daily now but been a little feverish in the past 2 days so I have not been able, will resume once i feel better

We cannot run away from the two of them if we want to diet. It’s not possible
we need to cut down our eating habit and also we have to be active with our exercises
That’s the best!
yea right
Developing the habit of exercise is good I appreciate those who do it. But I never go for any physical exercise except walking. Hehe. I am the lazy one.
Maintaining a diet of food is not so easy for everyone.
walking atleast 45 mins daily can do the trick too if you maintain dieting
I think it's the reason I can maintain my fitness and I walk a lot and on average I walk more than 1 hour. And in the case of food, I am maintaining it.
Exercise is must but most of us neglect it. Walking is good experience a day very easy.
The diet no doubt play a important role and know exercise will not work.
