HA!
I knew something wasn't right. I have been a gym regular for years now. I started when I quit smoking an dlived across the street from a gym. I went almost daily. Eventually, I feel off the gym wagon until a few month sback when I found a YMCA near work and started going on my lunch break. Since that time, I have gained weight. Trust me when I tell you it isn't muscle. Exercise gives me a ferocious appetite and of course we all know by simple math (1 mile=100 calories) you have to walk/run 3 miles 12 times to burn off a pound. That is provided the extra activity doesn't lead to extra snacking. I found this article to be really interesting. While we can ALL (fat and thin) do with a little more movement, we need to realize that it isn't neccesarily going to lead to weight loss.
