It happens so very often – we resolve to go on with a health and fitness program with gusto and probably much fanfare too, but in the first week of entering the program, everything fizzles out. Why is it that we don’t stick to the diet plans, the morning jogging plans, the workout plans that we make?

And what can we do to ensure we keep on with these plans, for our own sake and for the sake of the people that are dependent on us? We hear it a lot – Someone takes a gym membership and then lets it die without a whimper. Someone takes up a diet and then returns to gluttony the next weekend. Someone does a great deal of expensive shopping from big-name brands for morning routines and then wears the filthily expensive tracksuit for lounging around at home. This bug is all around us – People make grandiose plans to start health and fitness programs and then let go of them at the drop of a hat. What goes wrong?
