One of the most important things to do when you decide to start out on the path to fitness over 40 and changing your life is commitment. You must commit to becoming a new you. If you don't, your old habits will take over. Remember, you have been the old you for a long, long time. It won't be easy to break those habits.
Commitment is key to a successful weight loss and fitness plan. I have written an article on "Commitment To The Plan" and want everyone to read it. Consider it required reading for Fitness Over 40. Here it is :

The weight loss journey can be long and hard and it can be harder when you are talking about fitness over 40. So you need a plan to help you succeed. Statistics will show you that every successful weight loss plan will include a good nutrition plan and a dedicated exercise plan. It sounds pretty simple, but if you just use those two elements weight loss will always seem to be just around the corner. Fortunately, I've found that there is more to it and what you need to add. Adding commitment to your plan is the underlying key to success. All of these things can be found in a good program, such as "Fit Over Forty" by Jon Benson.
Fitness over 40 is attainable with a solid plan and commitment to it. It's a mind set, a life changing choice, and you will need motivation to change. It can be found in the Fit Over Forty program. Besides a great fitness plan you will also get motivation from people who have done amazing things. I know that one of the best ways to stay committed is to hear about great results from other people. People that you can relate to and gain confidence from by hearing and seeing that their own commitment paid off in amazing results. Now that you have a plan to start on your road to weight loss you first must pick your key elements and then a program to build around them.
Your diet and commitment to it is very important. If you are a woman over 40 you probably lead a busy life. So, start with exploring different diet and food choice options that will fit into your busy lifestyle and budget. Your diet must be able to accommodate you when you are out having fun and be easy to follow so that it is flexible enough for everyday. If you are the type of person that does not like salads, for example, then you must find a plan that does not include salad. Don't include items you don't really like and add more items you do to your diet plan. Eating what you enjoy will make it easier for you to stick to it.
