Exercise and Weight Loss, Do You Need To Do it?

I was reading an article that stated exercise is not necessary for weight loss. Looking back at my weight loss and I think you really need to keep yourself moving to lose weight. Maybe not jumping on an exercise bike or a treadmill per say but you really need to keep the body moving and NOT sitting at the computer for hours on end. I think that is one of the reasons I am having so much trouble losing again, I spend WAY to much time sitting at the computer! I used to drive down town almost every day and shop at the thrift stores or going to the farmers market and just walking. I thought by getting a job and bending and lifting ect. for that I would be losing weight but as the article said many people who exercise make themselves eat more because they are hungrier. I am starving after my three little hours of work and come home eat, usually at least three weight watcher ice cream bars and maybe even a sandwich then I take a nap. Hello, where is the movement in that! I know you must be saying three hours of work and she is shot? Yes, I used to think I was in pretty good shape after losing the weight, I even started to think about jogging but now all I think about is when I can get back to sleep. If I had insurance I would like to go and have my blood tested to see what I am lacking because it has to be something. I know since adding back sugar into my eating that also is dragging me down, I remember when cherry tomatoes used to taste so sweet to me but now after living on the weight watcher bars I can't enjoy the fruit and vegetables at all now. In reading the "Body Clutter" book it states if you have trigger foods that you just have to keep them OUT of your house! I need to do this with the dam weight watcher ice cream bars!! I keep telling myself one reason after another on why I need them just to get me through on thing after another but in reality they are messing me all up. Okay, now that I stated it out loud - I am NOT going to buy them again!! I will not let them jump into my shopping cart no matter what and then let me see if I can not get back to enjoying the sweet taste of cherry tomatoes and other healthier foods.
Good luck on your weight loss journey!

Until Next Time - God Bless!!
