In our society, thin and healthy people are considered to achieve more, be more social, and even provide better incomes. One recent study found that obese women made an average of two thousand dollars less every year than their skinny counterparts. This struggle to decide whether to accept oneself as she is or to move toward making different choices and hoping for a different outcome often lands women on the roller coaster search for bigger and better weight loss and health equipment.

Whether or not we agree with societys views, which are certainly slanted, many of us do have to take our health into consideration. Women who weight twenty pounds or more than their ideal weight are likely to start having associated health problems. This can include high cholesterol, blood sugar problems, circulations problems, and of course, social problems. Without giving into societys demand for a mother of five children to still be able to slip into a size four dress, we need to consider as women, what is best for our bodies and emotional health.

Despite the fact that women are reticent to admit it, the claims of loving their heavily overweight body is usually more of a indication that they resent societys desire to change them rather than the fact that they are truly happy in their body. This is more than reasonable. There is no one on this earth that can decide what is better for your body than you. There is no one on this earth that can claim your right to eat, to be healthy, or to be unhealthy, if you so choose. These decisions are your decisions. 

When trying to determine better habits while resisting the over marketing of a womans body, many people feel that the best thing for them is an improved diet and regular exercise. When this attitude is tempered with what falls off during the process is good but theres no pressure to maintain a small little figure and a zero gravity weight. 

Changing to healthy eating habits and purchasing some weight loss equipment is often done in the privacy of ones own home. This can be a good thing for those who feel by having at home, they will use it. Many women dont feel they have time to go to the gym and would rather exercise at home without eyes that feel rather judgmental peering in at them. Exercise equipment for the home can be expensive. Almost everyone finds it is more cost effective to simply join a gym. 

If youre looking to purchase at home equipment, consider carefully what types of equipment youre more willing to stick with. This can be difficult for someone who was never interested in sports as a kid and never had a burning desire to sweat or to learn something new like kick boxing. Some people do better with a machine that is easy to use while others like the idea of a guided video. Video and DVD workout programs are one of the fastest selling items on the internet. This is because people do actually tend to use them and they also begin to outgrow them. Some people view outgrowing a fitness video as a negative, but I think its a positive. If you purchase a workout DVD and you find within two months you need to order something more demanding, this means that you have made good physical progress and that you should be proud of yourself. There is no one workout DVD on the market today that will allow you to work out continuously without ever stepping up to a new and more challenging DVD. Celebrate those moments rather than being discouraged by them.

Be wary of any workout equipment that claims you dont have to do anything. Suits that you wear, belts that you strap on, and the like are not really going to give you the benefits of a workout. Your heart and lungs need the exercise as much as your waistline. Its not about getting skinny, remember. Its about maintaining a better level of overall health. 

Dont be too hard on yourself if you find that you need to switch athletic equipment, DVD styles, or even bring in something completely new from time to time. If working out and sweating isnt an enjoyable experience, youre not going to stick with it or youre going to learn to resent being physically active. Allow for change and allow for some experimentation. This will help lead you down the road to happy and healthy weight loss, a stronger heart, and most likely, fewer health problems than youve had in a long time.
