I wouldn't necessarily advise someone to diet without starting exercise. Exercise encourages healthier eating in a few physical ways, and for many the two are part of a mental lifestyle self-image which admittedly shouldn't exist but can still motivate.
I'm also skeptical of that balance theory. A exercised body would produce more reliable eating and satiation signals to aid in balance, if 'balance' is even how the new diet is calibrated.
- makeitdouble 5y agoThe twist is that if you get healthier by changing your eating habits, it will probably be easier for to start/increase exercise, and will continue to make you healthier while you take on exercising. Better eating is I think the most impacting thing you can do, exercising being the close second.
- 1123581321 5y agoAbsolutely. I think starting with either is totally viable, and it sounds like we agree that the only combination that probably won't work is exercising but never getting around to changing a bad diet.
