[Vegetarianslimming] Good and bad

 

Last week I had lost 2 pounds which I was really pleased about, this week a pound has gone back on, mind you I am not THAT bothered as Mother Nature decided to remind me who is in charge (I will not ask Dr Dragon to go out for chocolate for me!), I'm not sure if I will be able to weigh in this coming weekend as we are going to visit family but if I can I will!

Re: [Vegetarianslimming] Re: Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin- article from TIME

 

I also have a bike but since we moved to the top of a hill, I have not been
riding it. It's too steep.By the way, my name is juliet and I'm from
England, a small town on the South East coast.
I have taken up swimming and have just planted out a vegetable patch with
lots of salad stuff and other veg.

Agreed Cassie! I have recently taken up riding my bicycle around town instead of the bus. It takes less time and isn't nearly as hard as I had been thinking it would be. Just took me to get up and out there a couple times to realize. And yes, the mental benefits are great! :-)

Along with the mental health benefits you recieve from excersize and increased heart rate. I am going to keep it up, too!

It would be a foolish thing to assume that an hour in a gym counteracts

overeating. We know that if we eat more calories than we burn, we gain

weight. It would be a mistake, though, simply to throw up our hands and

avoid it altogether. Exercise does help burn calories, it just isn't

enough all by itself.

Without exercise, losing weight would be a lot harder for me. I work out

5 days a week, running for 40 minutes and lifting weights for 20. In

Weight Watchers, that counts for 6 points I can add on the days I

exercise. I'm allowed 20 points without exercise. Obviously what I eat

is the major part of the program, and that extra 6 points isn't

insignificant. But it's just 6 points, not the whole nine yards.

Exercise is vital for good health as well as an important factor in

maintaining a healthy weight. I plan to keep on doing it!

Cheers,

Trish

Re: [Vegetarianslimming] Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin- article from TIME

 

I had issues with this article. Yes, if I work out for half an hour and then
get almost anything other than coffee from Starbucks I won't lose weight.
But I still think exercise is a valuable part of my weight-loss plan. The
important part is keeping track of what you eat and how much exercise you do
so you don't eat 1000 calories and think that's okay because you just burned
300. But if you're tracking your calorie intake (through Weight Watchers or
SparkPeople or just by writing everything down yourself) I think you're less
likely to go crazy with your after-exercise snack.

He does point out some of the problems with how we view exercise versus what
the reality is, but by the end he seems to say that people trying to lose
weight should reduce how much they exercise or even stop completely, and I
think that's completely ridiculous.

I've seen a few decent responses to this, here are my favorites so far:

[Vegetarianslimming] Moussaka With Walnuts?

 

Years ago, I had a recipe for a moussaka made with walnuts. For the life of me, I can't recall the cookbook nor find a recipe. Does anyone have one?
Thanks so much!
