Message: <blockquote data-quote="ianf0ster" data-source="post: 2762636" data-attributes="member: 506169">Two 'doctor' programs on UK TV have had a GP (i think they were different GPs) say that several medical studies have shown that in the majority of cases, people who exercise more to lose weight don't lose any (or negligible) weight over a few months. The supposed reason being that all that exercise makes people hungry and so they eat more calories, they may even eat more calories than the exercise uses up and so put on more weight. I mentioned this in a post a year or so ago.Personally, I found that I lost weight by eating LCHF, then when I became fat adapted, I could start Intermittent Fasting and that having lost some weight (not much since I was slim in the first place) I found both that walking became more pleasurable and that I could walk further and faster. But the weight loss definitely came first in my case and what started that off was LCHF without any additional exercise or calorie counting at all!</blockquote>
