Lasting Weight Loss

A healthy way to achieve lasting weight loss is to make exercise a regular part of your weight loss plan. Exercise helps to burn extra calories and raises your resting metabolic rate. It keeps your body working efficiently and it boosts your motivation to lose weight.

How Exercise Assists You to Lose Weight

Let's say you eat a 2.8oz packet of skittles (approx 250 calories).

• If you jump rope, you can burn off all these calories in about 23 minutes.
• If you walk at 3mph, you can burn off these calories in about 50 minutes.
• In addition, exercise helps to raise your metabolic rate, which makes it easier to lose weight.
• Finally, exercise also helps you to lose weight by boosting your motivation to stick to your weight loss program.

Note: all calorie-burn figures are approximate. They are based on a 150 pound woman. If you weigh more, you'll burn more calories. If you weigh less, you'll burn less calories.
