When it comes to your overall health, do you struggle more with eating nutritiously, or exercising regularly?

[Prof_Don]

We all know two VITAL elements of overall good health, are eating well, and getting regular exercise.

We will disregard sleep, because it seems like EVERYONE kinda slacks on that one lol.

So between eating nutritiously,

and

exercising regularly...

...

...which one do you personally struggle with more?

Please respond and elaborate. Anonym is allowed.

I'll be awaiting responses. :)

I have a harder time consistently eating nutritiously

I have a harder time doing consistent physical activity

Definitely exercising regularly. I have no problem eating well. I'm not nearly as athletic as I used to be, and just never find the time or motivation to work out really. I mean my job is physically taxing, but it's not like cardio or anything, haha. I have trouble sticking to plans when it comes to working out. I'm fairly active, I just get lazy and don't have the motivation to force myself to do things once I've decided I 'don't feel like doing anything'. It's silly, because I don't have problems with motivation in most other areas.

Eating well [when I decide to enforce it] comes pretty easily to me. I used to be a vegetarian, and also a vegan at one point in time. Not the 'all I eat is pb&j because I don't know how else to eat' type of vegetarian. I put in a lot of time and effort into making sure I was getting in plenty of everything I needed nutritionally to supplement what I wasn't eating anymore, checking ingredients, etc etc, and eating a wide variety of foods in a way that was balanced.

YES YES YES I have no excuses...even though I give myself millions of excuses, and always say "today's not my day, tomorrow will be"

Sometimes I feel like my environment is unhealthy, I live in a busy city, and I think I NEED to be in some place like a tropical island with no stresses, but obviously if I can't take care of my self now, why would it be any different in another location? anyways... I think I will be starting tomorrow for sure, I have all the tools I just need the will power, I LOVE LOVE being active and taking care of myself, there is no better feeling, it's just hard to get back into, and to stick with it... I have to though, It's now or never, and my food addiction is SERIOUSLY effecting my life, jobs, friends, happiness, confidence,etc

[martyfellow]

talking about it is a starting point.

[WoIIie]

My appetite is a huge struggle to deal with I will eat steaks and bacon with cheese fondu all day. And burgers? ugh.

My mind wants but my body can't handle it.

[martyfellow]

These are not independent; if you work out you HAVE to eat well to have the energy, and 'bad' food that doesn't provide it will start to be unappealing.

deffffinitely physical activity. I just can't find the time or motivation to work it into my schedule. eating has to happen, though, and I've got long withstanding habits of eating pretty well (my mom used to be a nutritionist, so I grew up eating all sorts of healthy stuff).

Eating. Because I like my food. I don't eat a ton but I'm always tempted to eat unhealthy things, and do not always eat perfectly healthy, but I love to work out and I work out at least 4 times a week most weeks. It has become part of my routine and life, it is hard to start but once you start and enjoy it you'll find a way to do it at least several times a week.

Eating in general. I have allot of trouble eating, I find when it is time to eat, I am not hungry, and when it isn't time to eat I hold off until it is time... and the cycle repeats.

[queen21]

i personally struggle more with sport. I am not fat! but I just don't do sports other than swimming. I love swimming.

[Deft_maiden]

B. I struggle to work out 3 to 4 x a week. But I eat well.

[AmberChick]

I struggle more with eating nutritiously and yes sleep too definitely

[lemon2011]

Eating nutritiously, but mostly because I have to work out cause of cheerleading

[Anonymous]

I eat well, but I struggle to find time to exercise regularly when I work 50+ hrs a week. I use the My Fitness Pal app to count calories, it rocks!

[Xx_DRE_xX]

It's always been the eatting, I can go for aslong as 2 hours in the gym.

[janajane]

Like a lot of people, I have trouble making time to exercise systematically.

[SnackG]

They're equal for me. I'm awful at both.
