Do you exercise or eat with the understanding

eagle SG

of what the exercise can do for you

and

of what the food can do to your body?

I believe that if more people have a deeper understanding of what they are actually doing to their body, the world would be a healthier place.

bryanw SG

Like the Genting Highlands founder, on his bday everyone around him eat abalone, he can only eat fish ball noodle (soup).

some questions to ask

1) y some ppl take part in sports(swimming, bowling, basketball, soccer) and still so fat?

2)how 2 determine if somebody is fat? using the BMI as a guide?

3)if u don't eat regular meals, like miss yr breakfast cos overslept eat only lunch & dinner(maybe supper) will u lose weight overtime?

4) some ppl nvr exercise yet lose weight due to working long hours and work stress. can this b subsituted with exercise? since exercise is meant to lose weight & b healthy

5) some ppl eat very little(no appetite or just nibble on food) in the day and feast at night. is this an eating disorder?

6) y smokers seem 2 smoke and seldom eat much? the smoke subsitute the food? when they quit smoking they balloon up easily. subsitute food for smoking?

thanks

1) erm taking part in sports doesn't mean he can't be fat...

2) many ways. Our health ministry generally uses BMI. But sportsman may fail BMI but still fit.

3) depends on the person, what he eat, did he exercise, lifestyle, working hours, stress level, etc

4) nope. exercise is mean to maintain a healthy heart, increase lung capacity, muscles, etc.

5) pls google for a definition of eating disorder.

6) generalisation.

I'm assuming u really do not know the answers and are not trying to be funny.

thanks airgrinder

Regarding number 3, perhaps you would want to read up about yo-yo dieting and its harmful effects. I see it happening to my gf's female fren right now, and it was something I had already predicted when she started dieting last time.

Regarding number 4, research has shown that osteoporosis and muscle loss occur as soon as we are reach the age of 25 years old. However, exercises, especially weight training, will reduce, or even reverse, such effects. Without it.... you can imagine.... Think of the sedentary old folks that you see around...

Now, before one comment that someone else has better genes, think of this question: are you at you genetic potential yet? If not, reach there before complaining about genetic quality. Very Happy

i dun care what i eat Laughing

but i only jog everyday

eagle SG

it depends... when you don't care, does that mean your mum chooses what to cook or buy, or does that mean you automatically chooses food lower in saturated or transfats?

bryanw SG

eating is for taste. Mad

eagle SG

You mean like... breakfast laksa, lunch char kway teow and dinner one big mac meal? Laughing

missqi SG

i eat with the understanding that every french-fry is going to make my waist fatter but i don't care.
Laughing

bryanw SG

yes. all these r tasty. mac, kfc, chwee kweh, soon kweh, nasi lemak, mee siam, mee rebus, goreng pisang. we live only once so we shld pamper ourselves enjoy the food we like 2 eat. y make life miserable always thinking of healthy food? Mad

eagle SG

where did you get the impression that eating healthier food will make you miserable?

Actually KFC not that unhealthy, if you forgo the skin...

bryanw SG

if u forgo the skin not kfc anymore its ordinary fried chicken. the skin is crispy n nice. actually fish soup with rice is nice or those double boiled soups. i like salted veg soup. Razz

seotiblizzard SG
