Do you want to be more physically active, but have a hard time fitting exercise into an already busy schedule? Try these tips to find time for fitness that will help you lose weight.
- Take a few ten-minute walks during the day. Although you should try to be active for at least 30 minutes a day, you don’t have to do it all at once. Try getting your exercises in short bursts. Take a short walk before work, during lunch, and after dinner.
- Get up earlier. If you simply can’t find time in your day to work out, try getting up a little bit earlier every day. Start by getting up earlier a couple of days a week and adding more days as you adjust to the new schedule.
- Park farther away. When going to work or out shopping, make a point of parking as far away as possible and getting in the extra steps as you make your way to the door.
- Rethink your free time. Do you go to the movies or out to eat with family and friends? Try starting a ritual of going for a family bike ride or playing a group sport instead.
- Make your lunch hour work for you. Keep a pair of walking shoes at your desk and spend your lunch break taking a brisk walk instead of eating at your desk.

Nick's Story
"I wish I would have come here first. We spend all our time reacting to the next great weight loss tip or program. It might work for a while, but does not last and we end up yo-yoing from one fad to the next – as we gain more weight." Read More

Lost 60 lbs
"Dr. Ziltzer and everyone who I have come in contact with at the Scottsdale Weight Loss office have been so encouraging and I look forward to seeing them each week. It is now a year and 2 months later since I started. I am down 60 lbs., which is the average amount a 9-year-old weighs, it is crazy to think I lost a whole person! I feel amazing, I hit my goal weight in November 2021 just before Thanksgiving. Nothing on my body hurts anymore..." Read More

Lost 101 lbs
"Here I am at the lowest I have been since high school weighing in at 155lbs. I have lost 101 lbs, BMI of 39 when I started, to 21.6, and of course at body fat % of 47.1 to 26.5%. I told myself by my 30th birthday I wanted to be confident in the way I look and I owe it all to SWLC. The entire staff is so welcoming and they are rooting for you just as much as you are rooting for yourself...." Read More
