If you are exploring Ayurveda alongside a weight management routine, keep your everyday plan at the centre. Use these five questions to make that plan more practical.
1. Set a realistic goal
Discuss a suitable goal with a qualified health professional. Avoid judging your progress against someone else's before-and-after photo.
2. Plan meals you can maintain
Choose an eating plan that fits your health needs, food preferences and daily schedule. A registered dietitian can help you make it workable.
3. Make room for movement
Choose activity appropriate to your health and ability. Decide when and where it will fit into your week.
4. Review your routine
Keep a simple record of your habits and progress. Use it to identify practical barriers and decide what needs adjusting.
5. Arrange ongoing support
Ask who will help you follow the plan and maintain changes over time. Check the qualifications of anyone providing health advice.
