Losing weight without exercising is not considered the best way to lose weight.
Dropping the weight is actually down to a pretty simple equation:
Burn more calories than you take in and your body will burn fat to make up the extra energy required to keep up.
Without exercise, you'd simply be cutting down how much you eat so that it is below what your body needs. This can be harmful.
Instead, what I'd recommend is finding exercise that you can handle, and then maybe think about building up your fitness levels over time.
You can start with activities like walking, very light weight training, or going for bike rides.
All of these things will help you lose weight, but if they're not what you're into, then here are some additional ideas:
- Play Wii Fit
- Skipping
- Rowing
- Volleyball
- Swimming
- Yoga or pilates
- Spin class
- Basketball
- Doing sit-ups and pushups during the day and before bed
The thing with exercise is that almost no-one likes doing it at first. You've got to start light and easy, so that you'll realistically stick to it.
Once you give it a go, I'm pretty sure you'll be more likely to keep at it, because exercise releases endorphins into your body, which also make you feel better - a natural high!
