With my hectic schedule, its tough to fit in both dieting and exercise. But, I was reading today that dieting alone can cause lose of bone density, muscle mass, strength and aerobic conditioning. Exercise alone can maintain or improve muscle function and bone density. I gues there are no short cuts to losing weight and being healthy. Diet and exercise have to go together. A news reporter on CBS last week stated that even thin people need to watch their diet and exercise to avoid fat build up around the organs. It seems that diet and exercise is about climbing a mountain but never getting to the top. The secret is in enjoying the climb and adding variety to both diet and exercise. A study I read talked about two groups of women, one group ate a limited number of foods day after day (picked by the women themselves), another group ate a larger variety. At the end of the study, the group that ate the more variety of foods lived longer. The study did show that those women who ate unhealthy foods (white flour, sugar, etc.) developed more degenerative diseases including cancer.
