Losing Weight Without Exercise: Can It Be Done?

Have you ever wondered if you could lose fat without doing any exercise? This is one question that I get asked a lot and see posted in many forums. So can it be done? Oh yes it sure can! But you could also go on all day using just one arm. Heck, some people have only arm – or leg – and still maintain quite an active lifestyle. Wouldn’t you agree though that you’re better off with two arms?

Oprah Winfrey is quite famous for many reasons, one of which was her many attempts with losing weight using different diets. Did she succeed? Well she did slim down on almost all her diets… only to gain in all back a few weeks later after she stopped. Only when she finally added exercise has she maintained a fairly healthy weight.

That is a giant clue. Yes can succeed without exercise, but why not make it easier on yourself? “Eat less. Move more” is still a truism, however you go about doing it. Exercise helps with our mood, raises our metabolism, helps control appetite, helps stabilise our blood sugars. That’s a mighty impressive list isn’t it? Yes good fat burning supplements can also do all this, but again, why settle for less when you can have it all?

Add a good nutritional plan, a good fat burning supplement, plus exercise, and you’ll get pounds of fat melting off your body. Forget about “weight loss”, what you want is fat loss. Exercise will help you do that.

The key is finding exercises or sports you enjoy and that is doable with your level of fitness. It might be walking, ping pong, basketball, weight lifting, climbing, whatever floats your boat, do it! Weight lifting can be a great way to reshape your body… unless you hate weight lifting! How long will you last doing something you hate? 2, 3, 4 weeks? If you eat right for your type and do an exercise program you enjoy guess what, you’ll probably keep doing it! And of course if you keep doing it you’ll keep getting the results you’re after.

That’s what I mean by making it easy for yourself to succeed. When you do something you enjoy it’s not a chore anymore: it’s fun!
