Does This Metabolism Make Me Look Fat?
The folks at Buzzle.com have this to say:
As we get older our metabolism slows, leading to a slow loss of muscle and an increase in fat stores.
According to their tag line, they fancy themselves to be “Intelligent Life on the Web,” so the previous statement must be true.
Much of the information available states metabolism slows down after the age of 30. I guess I should feel proud. It took me several years, but I believe I’ve finally reached my weight gain goal.
Now the challenge I’ve been determined to create for myself is on the table, (not literally, as that would affect my dinner placement), and I must find a way to battle the gifts given to me by my years of desk-bound jobs and complete lack of any strenuous movement.
WebMD, which contains a veritable wealth of information, is helping me by giving me “Tips for Success.” Their first exercise tip?
JUST DO IT. (Which I saw as plagiarism, but I read on, anyway.)
The supporting text for the J.D.I. step:
Don’t let brain chatter talk you out of exercise.
I don’t know about other people in my predicament, but when my brain chatters, exercise is not typically among the subject matter.
Babbling brain aside, I’ve decided to begin my journey as WebMD suggests. I’m Just Doing It.
