So, has anyone else read this month’s issue of … oh, crap. I don’t know what magazine it is! Allure, I think. Anyway, there’s this piece in it where they talk to a bunch of medical researchers and exercise pros.

And more than one of them agree: exercise isn’t going to do much to help you lose weight.

Seriously?!

I mean — what the hell have I been doing all this time!?

And — do you comprehend what this means for me?! (Not to mention all the thousands of others out there with pain conditions who can’t exercise strenuously but need to lose weight.)

OK, obviously, there are other reasons to exercise but right now, it looks like my original plan of daily walks and yoga sessions was the best one after all.

The difference: I really have to cut down on what I eat.

Y’know, that, I think I can live with.
