Sitting down is a primary cause of weight gain. So if you have an office job, take every opportunity you can find to move around – you’ll lose weight.
If this sounds simple, it’s because it is.
Newsmax.com – Lose Weight by Getting Off Your Duff – Literally! notes: “‘It was hard to believe at first,’ said research team leader Marc Hamilton, associate professor of biomedical sciences at the University of Missouri-Columbia. When the team began investigating what happens to fat when we sit for extended periods, they really didn’t expect to find much, and certainly didn’t expect to find anything that turned out to be ‘huge.’”
It turns out that if you spend eight hours a day sitting down, fat collects on your tummy and hips, and aside from the weight gain, it’s bad for your health.
So make a new resolution – walk around when you speak on the phone, and get out of your office chair at least a few times an hour.
