[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This.  I go for years without working out and my BMI is usually 20-22.  I just eat less.[/quote]

If you don't work out at all, this may be your BMI based on your weight/height ratio, but your fat percentage is probably much higher. [/quote]

I doubt it, but even it is -[b] so what?[/b] She probably looks good and fits into nice clothes. If you want sculpted body, yes, you need to exercise. If you want to be merely thin and attractive, you don't.[/quote]

Because it is about the health of your heart, not what you look like in nice clothes.  Risk of health related diseases can be just as high for thin people with a very sedentary lifestyle.

[b]Interesting. And you are going to live forever because you exercise[/b]?[/quote]

Not sure where you got that idea.  I'm thinking more about the quality of life while alive.  Can you inform me as to how exactly a sedentary lifestyle is healthier than an active one?  [/quote]

It's not "healthier" but it can be more pleasurable. Quality of life is not all about one's results on medical tests. In fact, the very idea that one doesn't think about "health" all the time makes life infinitely richer, more purposeful yet calmer and more relaxed. Not everyone wants to sacrifice all the other values in order to obey the commands of the health gurus.

Personally, I hate going to gym and will never go again. It hurts and makes me feel dumb and boring. Nevertheless I like being thin because it makes my life better. Not necessarily healthier, mind you, merely better. And for me that is what matters.[/quote]
