What happens when I diet without exercise?

December 24th, 2012 Leave a comment Go to comments

I have 2 jobs so I don’t have time to exercise. I cook my own breakfast, lunch, and dinner so dieting isn’t a problem. My 2 jobs are easy (desk) so I can’t count it as exercise. If I start loosing weight because of the diet, would I get the loose skin n stretch marks? Or what happens when I diet without exercise?

You will lose more weight because you aren’t building muscle. And muscle weighs more than fat. If you don’t have much muscle, then you will actually be much smaller although you won’t be toned.

How early do you work? Three days a week, I have an exercise class from 6-7 and I wake up at 5:30 to get there. It fits perfectly into my schedule. But I do realize that most people aren’t willing to do that.

So, if you can get up earlier, three days a week, run or do cardio for about 20-30 minutes. It’s not a lot but it’s enough to keep your skin and mind healthy. Overall, exercising over time improves your mental health and physical health which leads to weight loss. There are so many benefits that you can get from exercise actually.

In the long run, eating a healthy diet and not exercising is much better than exercising but eating an unhealthy diet. Exercising is a good way to detox your body and improve cardiovascular health, but it’s more important that you eat right and give your body the nutrients it deserves. If you eat healthy enough, your body won’t have too many toxins to get rid of.

    actually you can exercise at your desk by flexing your muscles in place
    if you are familiar with the kleigle maneuver you can apply that same maneuver to other parts of your body and exercise this way
    if your diet, food, is working to reduce, it will take longer without exercise

    You would still loose weight. Weight lose happens when you expend more calories in a day than you take in. Going on a diet lowers the amount of calories you take in, just as exercise does (in that it burns calories). The additional benefit to exercise is it increases your metabolism, so you end up burning calories faster…. but cutting your calorie intake does the same thing.
