A recent article in Time magazine (Aug. 9) reported that exercising cannot help you lose weight. This, according to experts at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center—a major resource for the article—was a great misrepresentation of the facts present to the reporter. The fact is that exercise burns calories and reduced calories forces your body to shed weight. And, according to the National Weight Control Registry, consistent exercise is the best predictor of long-term weight management. So get out there and walk, run, bike, swim, play tennis, garden—just get moving.
