Stubborn extra weight/fatigue

[Dogmama]

I used to think that if I worked out a lot and rode my bike a lot that I could eat what I want. But what you eat has more to do with your weight than how much you exercise. The nutritionist can help you to balance out the exercise you do with the food you eat and make sure you are eating the right type of foods and the right amount of calories.

+1. Read the stuff about how long it takes running on a treadmill to burn off one oreo cookie. Ugh.

Lots of good advice. Here's more. When you get back on your feet add in weight training. Muscle burns fat at rest. Fat burns nothing at rest. You look better nekked with muscle. And I ain't talking no pink weights. Lift something that makes you grunt after 10-12 reps. Then do it again.

I see lots of fat-skinny women at my gym. Mainly the cardio queens who work out like crazy on the ellipticals and go home. Young girls who have almost no muscle & probably a fairly high body fat ratio, but they look good in the Calvin Kleins. Until they get a little older and menopause creeps up...BWAHAHAHA....
