People who exercise in the morning seem to lose more weight than people completing the same workouts later in the day, according to a new study of workouts and waistlines. The findings help shed light on the vexing issue of why some people shed considerable weight with exercise and others almost none, and the study adds to the growing body of science suggesting that the timing of various activities, including exercise, could affect how those activities affect us. The relationship between exercise and body weight is somewhat befuddling. Multiple past studies show that a majority of people who take up exercise to lose less weight drop fewer pounds than would be expected, given how many calories they are burning during their workouts. Some gain weight. But a few respond quite well, shedding pound after pound with the same exercise regimen that prompts others to add inches. This variability interests and puzzles Erik Willis, a data analyst with the Center for Health Promotion and Disease … [Read more...] about Morning exercise offers most weight loss benefits: study

Stressed? Mayor Isko explains weight loss
MANILA - Manila Mayor Isko Moreno said he is intentionally losing weight, and not because of the demands of his job. Speaking to DZMM, Moreno said he started to lose weight even before he became mayor. "A year before the campaign period, talagang I prepared myself. Physically, because I know it's going to be a tedious campaign," he said. Moreno said he lost around 40 pounds through "slow juicing." "From 192 (pounds), through slow juicing, na-reach ko 'yung 155.

Weight loss support helps people with fatty liver disease
People who have fatty liver disease related to being overweight may get the disease under better control when they get lots of support to lose weight, a research review suggests.Most people have a little bit of fat in their liver, but fatty liver disease can be diagnosed when more than 5per cent of the liver is made up of fat. If the condition isn't linked to liver damage from heavy drinking, it's known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and is most often associated with obesity and certain eating habits.For the current analysis, researchers examined data on 2,588 patients who were participating in 22 clinical trials of various interventions to help them lose weight. Fifteen studies tested behavioral weight loss programs; six tested medications; one tested weight loss surgery.The trials also looked at whether those interventions would improve biomarkers for NAFLD that can help predict the likelihood of serious complications.Compared with little or no weight loss support, the … [Read more...] about Weight loss support helps people with fatty liver disease
A possible weight loss strategy: Skip breakfast before exercise
Skipping breakfast before exercise might reduce how much we eat during the remainder of the day, according to a small but intriguing new study of fit young men.The study finds that the choice to eat or omit a meal before an early workout could affect our relationship to food for the rest of the day, in complicated and sometimes unexpected ways.Weight management is, of course, one of the great public – and private – health concerns of our time. But the role of exercise in helping people to maintain, lose or, in some instances, add pounds is problematic. Exercise burns calories, but in many past studies, people who begin a new exercise programme do not lose as much weight as would be expected, because they often compensate for the energy used during exercise by eating more later or moving less.These compensations, usually subtle and unintended, indicate that our brains are receiving internal communiques detailing how much energy we used during that last workout and, in … [Read more...] about A possible weight loss strategy: Skip breakfast before exercise
