suggests that, in the longer term, exercise is the best and the only way to keep weight down.
Harvard University researchers studied the effect of seven ways to lose weight over the course of three decades, looking at people who lost 4.5kg or more as a result of their chosen weight loss programme and focusing mainly on those who are obese and overweight. This group recorded a 4.2 per cent decline in weight, on average, after four years – compared to a 2.5 per cent weight loss in overweight people, and 0.4 per cent decline in lean people.
“Weight maintenance after weight loss is notoriously challenging.
“In addition, exercise was suggested to help weight maintenance by breaking the vicious cycle of stress and obesity [from the resulting comfort eating]. And, importantly, exercise might be more sustainable.”
