> you'll offset the entire effect of this workout by eating a cookie Hm. I dealt with this problem by radical diet change and no change in activity level. I lost more than 100 lbs in a year by going essentially vegetarian for a couple months and then gradually changing my diet into to something that's still not what it was but is something I can live with long-term. Right now, I'm doing what I'll be doing the rest of my life, which is monitoring my weight and modifying my diet based on observed results but otherwise eating what I want. I still walk multiple hours a day, as I did before I lost weight, while I lost weight, and will until I physically can't, but I did (and do) no other exercise. I'm predisposed to being fat. That may or may not be genetic in a meaningful sense, but I treat it as if it is. I know I'm genetically predisposed to Type 2 diabetes. If I get fat again and stay fat long enough, I'm going to have to manage that. I'd rather manage the process of staying a healthy weight.
