Loosing weight has its many challenges and the thought of where to begin is overwhelming in itself. Not to mention it would be nice to cut corners and do what is most effective, like just eat healthier and not worry so much about working out. Or vice versa. I thought I would answer this question as to which is most important, “eating healthy or exercise”…if you had to choose? Decreasing ones daily caloric intake is most effective when it comes to dropping the pounds than exercise alone. But the icing on the cake is exercise. In other words, cutting calories helps to drop the pounds but physical activity can help keep the weight off for the long run. Building lean muscle and loosing fat is the recipe to speed up ones metabolism. When the body has more lean muscle mass, more energy is required meaning your body will burn calories efficiently. In the long run you will have better weight control. In addition, the extra energy you burn will allow you to occasionally indulge in the treat of your choice.
There is not one that is better than the other but what we do know is decreasing caloric intake will best help drop the pounds. And exercise will keep the weight off in the long run.
