At one point or another, we or someone we know is on a diet. We eat healthy and exercise, (with a few cheat days in between) to lose weight, but when we don’t see results, we’re hard on ourselves, and stop working out. Now, researchers at the University of Michigan suggest the key to weight loss is all in our head: we need to change the way we think about exercise.
Our expectations and beliefs about exercise can influence how successfully we’re able to include physical activity into our daily routine.
