How to Reach Your Health Goals

Setting health goals and being in good health takes much more than following a certain diet or exercise routine. What you need to reach your health goals is a lifestyle change. Whether your aim is to get rid of unhealthy eating habits, build your strength, or lose a few pounds, you need to be willing to put in the hard work and commitment required to achieve those goals.

Internal Medicine Clinic in Las Vegas, NV

Most people look online for tips on how to stay healthy, what to eat and which workouts are the best to reduce weight. While credible health sites can provide some valuable advice, the right approach is to consult a medical expert before starting on any dietary changes or exercise plan.

We at  Radar Medical are the best Internal Medicine center in Las Vegas, NV. Our internist, Dr. Dipti Shah is one of the most sought-after experts in the field and focuses on providing holistic care to all our patients.

While she treats specific ailments, Dr. Shah also provides advice on the best ways to maintain overall health for a happier and healthy life. There is nothing generic about the advice she provides and if you are looking to reach your health goals actively, it’s a good idea to schedule a consultation with her before embarking on any diet regimen.

Designing a Custom Health Plan

She will first understand your health and medical history and carry out a physical examination. Before providing any specific recommendations, she will assess your fitness levels and take factors like gender and age into account. Dr. Shah will also conduct a detailed consultation. She will understand what your health goals are and then design a plan that includes recommendations on a diet and workout routine.

If you have consulted a dietician or a physical trainer, it’s still a good idea to discuss the plans they have provided, with our Internist in Las Vegas, NV. Dr. Shah is a specialist with years of medical experience. This puts her in a position where she can offer valuable advice that will set you on the right track and help you achieve your health goals. Here are some strategies that the doctor recommends you follow:

1. Establish Milestones

When you are transitioning to a healthier lifestyle, you are eager to get to that point quickly, which makes you eager to set big health goals. However, these lofty goals can also be extremely intimidating. It isn’t uncommon for people never to start at all, or backslide quickly because they find the challenge too daunting.

This is why, it’s best to set smaller goals, achieve one milestone before moving to the next one. Even if you know that your entire diet needs an overhaul, don’t be over-eager to alter everything at one shot. Start gradually and swap the unhealthiest foods with nutritious yet low-calorie options.

2. Make Sure Your Goals Are Realistic

Overenthusiasm leads people to set unrealistic goals. For example, if your target is weight loss, you need to be realistic when it comes to how much weight you can shed within a specified period. If you suddenly decide that you will lose 30 pounds in a fortnight, you are setting yourself up for failure.

The methods you follow in your efforts to achieve this unrealistic goal can be detrimental to your health too.  This is why it’s essential to distinguish between your goals and wishes. The goals you set should be achievable in a healthy way.

What’s even more important is that the methods you follow need to be sustainable. This is where the medical expertise of an experienced Las Vegas internist comes into the picture. Dr. Dipti Shah will design a plan that will help you get the desired results, without affecting your health negatively.

3. You Need To Be Persistent

On your path to a healthy lifestyle, persistence is what matters the most. Regardless of the health goals you want to achieve and no matter how much of planning you do, there will be some hiccups along the way. So if that slice of cheesy pizza or delectable pie tempts you and you stray off-course, don’t lose hope and give up. Instead, learn a lesson from your digression and persist in your efforts. 

4. Seek Support

When you embark on something as challenging as pursuing your health goals, it’s essential to seek support. Find individuals with similar goals as you; support them in sticking to their goals and you will find that you get support in return. This symbiotic relationship proves to be beneficial to everyone involved.

5. Stay Focused

Most people on their journey to health encounter certain common pitfalls and changing multiple behaviors is a common one. For example, if you’ve just started following a specific diet, and you simultaneously attempt to quit smoking, you are setting yourself up for failure. It’s far better to pick one target behavior to alter and put the others on the side burner for a bit. Once you have achieved the first goal, move to the next one.

Transitioning to healthy habits can be very challenging and involves a lot of hard work, commitment and resolve. It’s also necessary to reward yourself when you reach a milestone and celebrate your successes. This will keep you motivated on your journey of good health.
