After ‘The Biggest Loser,’ Their Bodies Fought to Regain Weight
Extreme diligence seems to be the only way to fight this.  If I stop exercising, the pounds pack on within weeks.  If I insure I burn at least 3000 calories a day (usually much more), I can maintain my weight indefinitely.  But I walk to work and I exercise for 1-2 hours daily.  Most people cannot or will not do this.<p>Add in the extreme carbohydrate and fat-laden diets most readily available to America and it&#x27;s a perfect storm for our Wall-E future, no?<p>When I cook at home, I can avoid this by eating a little bit of meat&#x2F;tofu&#x2F;tempeh&#x2F;etc with a pile of greens, but restaurant fare is a little bit of vegetables, a small slab of meat, and a super-size portion of some fancy grain of the week if not just white rice.  Sigh...
