A
medium-sized adult would have to walk more than thirty miles to burn
up three thousand five hundred calories, the equivalent of one pound
of fat. this may seem like a daunting task but you don't have to
walk the thirty miles all at once. Walking a mile a day for thirty
days will achieve the same result, providing you don't increase your
food intake to negate the effects of walking. If you take in one hundred calories a day more
than your body needs, you will gain approximately ten pounds in
year. You could take that weight off, or keep it off, by doing
thirty minutes of moderate exercise daily. The combination of diet
and exercise offers the most flexible and effective approach to
weight control.
Since muscle tissue weighs more than fat tissue,
and exercise builds muscle mass to a certain degree, your bathroom
scale won't necessarily tell you whether or not you are "fat."
Well-muscled people, with very little body fat, invariably are
"overweight" according to standard weight charts. |
If you are doing a regular program of
strength training, your muscles will increase in weight, and
possibly your overall weight will increase. Body composition is a
better indicator of your condition than body weight.
The temporary and modest weight losses with
commercial diet programs are not
a surprise, according to Dr. Wadden, because no one knows how to achieve
permanent weight loss.
Weight-loss diets have long
been promoted as a permanent cure for "obesity," but they rarely
produce permanent or long lasting results.
