[Jmason09]

hi guys...iv decided im on my 3rd week now that i want to take up exercise (jogging) 3-4 times a week. i am worried about my weight loss though as many have said it will affect it in a bad way...has anyone done regular exercise and still lost reasonable ammounts im not aiming for much loss every week i would like 2-4lb a week...will this be done if i am 100% and exercising??
thanks

there are quite a few posts on this topic already. have a search using the advanced search. personally i did the odd bit of exercise but these last few weeks with it being really cold, al ive wanted to do is go home n sit in front of the fire so ive not done much to be honest. however if i did go running (i used to be a keen runner before piling on the weight) i wouldnt ever do more than 30 mins on the treadmill as i didnt want my body to go into starvation mode. i think if you have a lot to lose its worth exercising to help tone up and reduce sagging skin, I would not class myself as having exercised thhroughout LT yet had some awesome losses i think. I will be taking up running once i come of this diet to help with maintenance.

hi i think you will be ok as even if your weight lose is reduced you will still reduce in inches !!! and that can only be good

Just be careful not to overdo it as your on about 460 calories a day which isn't much!!! When I tried exercising I was light headed and prematurely tired. The male LT is 566 calories which didn't help much more lol Just be careful

Same Rita. I find climbing 2 flights of stairs at work a challenge. Walking is the only thing that seems to be ok
