Diet

health , weight-loss

Diet dominates weight, as weight is simple arithemtic -“calories in” minus “calories out”. Weight is essential because it reduces the effort required to do physical activities, and because it reduces the risk of many diseases. Exercise, while critical to energy, is mostly a red herring for weight loss. A great way to see this is comparing what you eat to physical Activity. A side of fries adds 500 calories to your day, but running for 30 minutes only burns 300 calories.

My journey

Maintaing a healthy weight has always been a challenge for me. I was obese as a kid, and at multiple times my weight has crept up to 230 lbs, and with incredible diligence it had once dropped to a 150 lbs.
