"The Secret to Weight Loss Through Exercise"

When unrealistic hopes clash with reality,

the disappointment may lead to an abandonment

as an exercise in futility, no pun intended.

Our false expectations may also give us license to overeat.

Our pie-in-the-sky notions about the power of exercise

may just be used to justify an extra slice of pie

Some researchers warn that labeling menus

backfiring if people rationalize their indulgences

This concern has actually been put to the test.

Exercise psychologists took a group men and women,

either 50 calories or more than 250 calories.

manipulated the machines to give false readouts,

both groups burned the same number of calories.

They just thought they burned more or less.

Then, they were offered a meal 10 minutes later,

the "effects of exercise on taste perception,"

but the real purpose was to covertly measure

did seem to demonstrate a greater "license to eat,"

ending up eating significantly more calories,

mostly in the form of chocolate chip cookies.

to treat themselves for their sweaty sacrifice.

we should strive to make exercise less of a chore.

In a paper entitled "Is it fun or exercise?

The framing of physical activity biases subsequent snacking,"

a study is described in which individuals were randomized

Half were told they were going on a "scenic walk,"

Afterwards, researchers covertly measured

how much dessert everyone took at a subsequent meal.

This is all the more reason to choose activities

such as walking with friends or while listening to music,

Reframing exercise as play rather than work

may not only make for a more sustainable regimen

to consciously or unconsciously feel the need

to later reward ourselves at the buffet line.

Those randomized to simply read about physical activity

went on to serve themselves nearly 60 percent more M&Ms

The researchers concluded: "simply imagining exercise

leads participants to serve themselves more food."

may not just psychologically predispose us to eat more

but may physiologically make us hungrier.

This helps explain why the average weight loss

based on the number of extra calories burned.

that changes on one side of the equation can affect the other side.

In other words, we can work up an appetite.

show that caloric intake tends to rise over time

to match any increase in caloric expenditure,

making significant weight loss through exercise alone

there may not be an immediate increase in hunger,

our appetite does tend to increase to balance out

most of the extra calories we've been burning.

This calorie compensation isn't perfect, though,

so we can end up with a net loss in body fat,
