How many times have you exercised this week?

[Anonymous]

I see questions everyday on here by people trying the newest fad diet, considering ridiculous weight loss tip that they got from who knows where, starving themselves to death, but really how many times have you got off your butt and actually got some exercise this week? What kind of activities are you doing to stay fit?

My answer:

I went mountain biking two times this week. One was a 2.5 mile single track the other was a 5.5 mile single track. I did a 5 mile run in the sand at the beach, and a 6 mile run on a treadmill. I also did one hour of weight lifting this week.

I do Malibu Pilates like 5 times a week and then have 2 off days on weekends. On my off day I go on the treadmill for 30 minutes a day. I just have really bad metabolism cause I only eat 500 calories a day and have stayed at 130 pounds. There are people out there that want to lose weight without exercising and it never works. I mean I don't starve myself cause I don't get hungry but I also exercise and I still don't lose weight so it does suck but I am happy being 130 pounds. I recently watched show on TV called "My 600lb life" and it was unbelievable. After watching that show, I will never complain about my weight ever again.

You only eat 500 calories a day? Are you in therapy? You really should not eat bellow 1200 calories per day unless morbidly obese and on a specifically designed diet by a doctor and under his supervision. This is only for short periods as well. 500 calories is starvation can damage your internal organs over periods of time. As you said your body has a very low metabolism. This is because your body has shut down in response to the low caloric intake. It's trying to save you from death. Please eat

more calories and talk to a counselor.

[Amillia1981]

No I'm not in therapy LOL. I appreciate your concern but I am just not hungry for some reason. I am in very good health according to my doctor. I drink a lot of water and exercise everyday. I eat lots of vegetables. Its just that the foods I eat don't have a lot of calories but they still fill me up. I do have off days though even with my calorie intake. I do eat at least 1000 calories on weekends so it works out.

I only exercise at school which is for two hours every other day. This week though has been a lazy week, I have been sad because my boyfriend now ex cheated on me so now I'm stuffing my face with jack and the box tacos with my cousin but usually I tend to go for a jog on the beach two times a week.

[Asker]

Ouch! Sorry to heard your ex did you like that. Well tomorrow is a new day. Put down the taco and pick up the tennis shoes. =)

[smokahontas]

I do a 40 min exercise thingy 5-6 times a week and I walk a few km almost everyday, when I look at what others do I feel like I should do more :/

[Asker]

Got your regime down. =D Do you do marathons or halfs? I got to get back into the flow, just so bored of running every day so I'm switching it up with different activities.

[This_is_a_complement]

No marathons, running just clears my mind.
