Lose 1 lb A Day

Posted Nov 17 2008 9:11pm

"Lose 1 lb a day" sounds like a line from a bogus infomercial.  Yet this is exactly what one person apparently did in a wild experiment.

I've mentioned before that if a person exercises (walks) 1 hour a day they will lose roughly 1 lb a week.  So what would happen if a person did all seven hours of exercise in one day?

Ron Brown did just this and apparently did lose 1 lb of fat in 1 day.  The rest of his website is worth a look as well.  In addition to lots of exercise, he advises cutting calories - something I do not endorse.  But at least his ideas are based on a truthful principle: ultimately, you need to burn more calories than you take in to lose weight.
