This is because exercise is the missing connection in weight loss and most people do not want to exercise because they want the easy way out in shedding the excess weight. Therefore do not try a quick fix to lose weight, use a diet plan that you think best suits you and an effective exercise plan that will help keep your body healthy. Exercise will also help you be mentally healthy as well as improve your physical fitness by strengthening the muscles, improving cardiovascular system.
