    But the weight loss is just one part of being healthy. You aren't as healthy as you can be if you aren't exercising. Your heart, limbs, brain all get healthier with exercise. It's not just about losin

My NUT told me exercise is for toning and diet is for losing. She actually recommends just walking. At some point i will go back to the boot camp i was part of but i am going to see how it goes before i decide. Its pretty strenuous so i might wait until around christmas and slowly work up to it in the meantime. I felt really good when i was going.

But the weight loss is just one part of being healthy. You aren't as healthy as you can be if you aren't exercising. Your heart, limbs, brain all get healthier with exercise. It's not just about losing the weight. I would recommend atleast walking.

Weight loss by itself will not guarantee those things. If you don't believe me, look around at all the unhealthy skinny people in the world. There are plenty.

Here it talks about fatness vs fitness

But i also must mention that i would not consider myself lazy even without your typical workout routine. I work horses daily and have a job that keeps me on my feet 8-10 hrs a day. Before surgery i could easy run up several flights of stairs without being winded. My NUT actually told me I could cut back to the lower Protein requirements if I wanted to lose some of my muscle to not be so "bulky." (Her body mass thingy put me in the OVER category for muscle mass) I laughed and told her no thank you I will keep all the muscle i can.

So it truly comes down to how "Lazy" you are talking. I have low pulse and blood pressure and absolutely no comorbidities. But I am active in my everyday life. I will choose to add some exercise plans as i go.

But to answer the original question... yes you probably can lose the weight you want with diet alone. But don't expect to feel your best or look your best. And there are things to do besides the typical gym exercise routines...
