I hate to be the one who says stop crying, but since when Is an hour of exercise 4 or 5 days a week an impossible goal?


Seriously, I guarantee if everyone who said that posted their daily schedule there is an hour or so of time in there somewhere that could be used for exercise.

If you want the truth, the "do something instead of doing nothing" thought process was put in place for the people who I already commented on who just think that doing a strenous exercise is just too hard for them. Its like a reverse gateway drug. The hope is that you START doing something, which gets you to realize that A: this isnt too hard and B: its not really doing much, so maybe I can up the ante since I haven't died yet.


Im sorry BackToLowCarb, but I just dont see any particular sense in getting actually angry about the fact that medical professionals finally came out and said hey, if you want exercise to work, it actually has to be exercise.

I don't know who was the one who purported that 10 minutes or so of walking or stretching and t hings was going to be beneficial, but they're grossly irresponsible if they have conveyed to you and to others that this method is doing much.

No one said it was doing NOTHING, but the evidence has always been there that it wasn't really having much of an impact. The evidence shows that it was most likely the better food choices and the diet that had the impact, not the small amounts of exercise.
