It is hard work to burn off weight via exercise. It is much easier to watch what your eating. It's bullshit that exercise is not an option.

But then I guess they dumb it down in case everyone will go off message and eat pies all day and think a ten minute walk on a Sunday will burn it off.

What they are trying to say is that you can't have a poor diet and expect to be able excercise the extra calories off. Good diet and excercise go hand in hand. Found out to my cost as this is what I used to do.

Does this mean when I have been walking to the chippy for my pudding, chips, peas and gravy instead of driving I am not having a 'free lunch' afterall? :cry:

Calories in, calories out. It's really not that hard, is it?

If I expend approximately 1000 extra calories on a longish bike ride and consume an extra 800 calories as a consequence, I'm gonna lose weight in the long term, am I not?

Or am I missing something?

I think you must be missing the fact that boring common sense headlines don't sell newspapers!

You are indeed missing something.

It is actually worth reading the article this time.
 
Why? Were they throwing frisbies to the passers-by? :tongue:
