The Numbers in Our Lives with Christie Clinic

By: Larry Williams, Health Coach, Transformations Medical Weight Loss Program

Let’s face it, as a society, we are fixated with numbers. Whether it’s miles per gallon, interest rates, or years to retirement we are very much aware of numbers. This is also true with our health, more specifically, our weight.

Watching your weight can be like watching the stock market; it can be volatile, and you must have the right personality to weigh frequently. While fixating on our weight, it’s important to realize there are other numbers related to weight, weight loss, and lifestyle change that in many cases are just as if not more important than that number on the scale.

What are these other numbers to take into consideration?

Lab Results: Our lab results are a great indicator of our overall health. With major, healthy lifestyle changes, we can experience great results in our labs. Medications can be reduced and sometime even eliminated.

Body Fat and BMI: Body fat is also a good health indicator. Change in lifestyle can lower your body fat. BMI (body mass index), which is formulated by height and weight, is yet another indicator of our overall health. Your BMI can also improve with healthy lifestyle change.

Clothing Size: How do your clothes fit? Does it seem that you have a clothing store in your closet, minus the size markers? When making lifestyle changes, clothing can be a wonderful visual of your success. And remember that as an article of clothing becomes too big for you, discard the item. This gives you great cause to maintain the lifestyle change.

How You Feel: On a scale from 1-10, how would you rate your overall feeling/attitude about yourself? By making healthy lifestyle changes, if you are not at an 8 or above on most days, you need to make some changes.

You can see where I’m going with all this. Yes, your weight is important, but it’s lifestyle change that truly makes the difference. Food choices, exercise, and behavior modification are the key to lifestyle change. And to make the changes, it must be with the desire, drive, and determination to do it.
