Exercise is a good supplement to diet for weight loss. But it is not necessary.
One of my friends is morbidly obese, it's quite tragic. And her nutritionist keeps telling her to "do more exercise". It's such a terrible idea, it would put a lot of stress on her body, be extremely extremely hard work and all for mediocre benefits.
The bulk of weight loss is from correcting your diet. Again the nutritionist advice for her is generally along the lines of allowing her to eat as much sugar (carbs) as she wants but try and stay below some arbitrary limit, which is difficult.
- zobzu 13y agoI find it both funny and scary that more than one person thought I mention exercise as weight loss. Exercise is necessary for general well being. It doesnt have to be the gym. Walking around is ok. I also think that people who are extremely overweight generally (unless they have a specific sickness causing this) are simply too weak minded to over come this. For these, the only way I know of is to educate them as young age. Ie, the ones that are lost are already lost. Some will overcome their weak mind and eventually get healthy again, but a vast number will not. And facts will back this up, unfortunately - I don't even think this needs a citation :/
