[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One cookie is around 130 calories, running one mile on average 10 minutes per mile, depending on a person, you might burn between 80-120 calories. So, a mile per cookie, walking it will take 20 minutes on average. People seem to fail understanding just how few calories are burned by a person who does moderate exercise per week. People who say they eat anything they want, but exercise and that is enough to be slim, are either on a Biggest Loser or working our 8 hours per day, or they actually do not eat that much at all. Notice how every pp here said, "I eat pretty much what I want," and then add how little they eat in reality.[/quote] Don’t underestimate the effect of being on your feet all day, or an increased level of daily activity. When I go back to the farm, where I’m moving all day and up and down the stairs, I drop 3 lbs in a week without eating less. [/quote] I definitely agree with what you posted. But, most people have sedentary lives, living on a farm is hard work, hard work that many people can't even fathom. If we could only go back to when most of population lived and worked on a farm, but we are far removed from that lifestyle for the most part. My grandma grew her own vegetables till the day she died. There is a lot of work involved in growing and then making your own food, and then preparing it yourself, imagine how fit most of population would be today if we all still did that? Even the pie she made involved picking the fruit, sometimes canning it, getting the cream from the cow... we even had wheat fields, grandpa was skinny until death too! Today, with the machines it is somewhat less work, then when you went to cut wheat with the scythe all day![/quote]
