[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Exercise including weights can increase metabolism. It also increases the quality of my sleep and reduces my stress, both things that make it much easier for me to eat an appropriate amount. It's absolutely part of the equation for weight loss and management. [/quote] It hardly does anything to your metabolism at all. You have go gain a ton of muscle to move the needle. But I eat when I get stressed, and exercise reduces my anxiety, so I do gain weight if I don’t exercise. But ultimately I do think that we have been mislead about the connection between weight loss and exercise, and it’s unfortunate because often when people push themselves to work out for weight loss, it doesn’t happen, they get discouraged, they quit, and miss out on all the amazing benefits of exercise.
