WTF

Walking 40ft instead of 300ft twice a day is not going to make a noticeable difference

No but walking 1 km from/to the station or going by bike certainly is. As is walking during holidays or whatnot.

Most people who gain weight do realize it by feeling it rather than by looking at the mirror, especially since it is a very slow process. If you feel the struggle walking 300 feet and you don’t have other issues, you’ve probably gained a lot of weight already.

Yes maybe ‘notice’ 100lbs gain is a strong word, but you don’t fully realize it until you actually start wheezing doing something you used to consider normal. If your only exercise is walking from the car to your desk job and back you may just chalk it down to being a little out of shape.

The main issue is that processed foods are very high in calories and low in everything that is good for you and these foods are absolutely everywhere in the US.

Definitely, that is the main issue. I’m just saying the benefts (even just the weigh-control benefits) of walking are more than the calories spent.

Walking is a very low intensity exercise that will not burn a lot of calories, but is it’s the only exercise you get it’s a whole lot better than nothing.

If, in your whole day, you never walk more than 100 meters at a time (likely, if you go by car everywhere) you may not notice the weight gain for years.

If you live in a place with an elevator or on the ground floor, get your food delivered or get it at a drive-in, do most of your shopping online, go to places with parking lots, where you just walk maybe 20-30 meters before you sit down, you’ll not notice your health is going to shit.

Controlling weight is one of these things that are very easy for some very hard for others.

I have been underweight to obese and back to a healthy weight trough my life and I must say, losing weight was 50% the result of my efforts and 50% life changes (whom I lived with, work/life balance and other non diet related changes)

I now have the luxury of time to make my own food and exercise as much as I want, if I didn’t I’d probably balloon up quite quickly. Pre made food is the spawn of Satan.

If you do cook at home I’d suggest adding more spices to replace salt/sugar as much as possible but keep stuff tasty, and go for food that has more complex texture, it tends to be more satisfying, so you naturally eat less.

That said good luck and try to ignore the bad judgements.

I think walking does way more than burning calories though.

For one it gives you a lot more awareness of your physical condition, if you go everywhere by car you may barely notice your weight has doubled.

Secondly I find any physical activity, especially running or walking, helps to combat urges for stuff like snacking.

But it is hilarious when the person perpetrating it does not have a family or children

In this particular case, some of the USMX members may be making money from the strike: Maersk, for example, has seen its shares jump and has raised its prices already.

The strike wil cause a drop in maritine freight capacity which, in turn, will earn some of the carrier more than if they were working normally.

So I’m not sure how it will go, the ILA workers have a massive bargaining chip and I believe they will get a good deal, eventually, but some USMX members might want to stall the negotiations as long as possible.

As far as I can tell, that theory is quite fringe and does not have much support from peer reviewed tests.

The quarry is basically next to the pyramids, and the main issue with transportation was most likely space constraints: there’s only so many people that can work at a given time on the pyramid itself, regardless of how much manpower the Pharoah could muster.

Carrying up millions of tons of powder sounds way less practical than carrying the solid stones to me, and making them off-site just to carry them up doesn’t seem to make sense.

Also I see an issue with the correlation vs causation: healthier people probably masturbate more often, on average

Christianity is fantasy role-playing and it’s hurting America, the title is correct!
