First, whenever someone starts a post with “trust me” I immediately get skeptical of anything they say after that.
Second, I never said I didn’t burn calories.
Third, I don’t need an education in how it works, I understand it already.
Additionally, I don’t run, and find treadmills etc boring, and since you are so well versed in all of this, you will know that people don’t tend to stay with exercises if they find them boring and/or otherwise unpleasant.
And, lastly, do you have something that you can point me to, because I would be really interested in a good study that indicates exercising on an empty stomach increases the amount of calories you burn.
Trust me is based on personal experience of losing 30lb without ANY diet supplements/surgery and includes my wife’s experience as well.
I originally got the morning workout bit in a workout book for men, but hey, try and see for yourself. It seems to work for all my friends who tried it. At 15 people we would have folks to prove statistical significance, given the dramatic (over a year) results.
You must not allow hypothyroidism to go on untreated or it will be HARD to metabolize and burn the calories. Personal experience also.
I find it interesting that you can walk without boredom but not run, maybe the country side passing by is entertaining you?
In any case, I listen to Rush during my workout and other music. So TV, Rush, MP3 books etc are a MUST. My niece is nurse practitioner and she has had luck with exercise video games as well...
