9 Hard Truths About Weight Loss

Weight Loss & Diet Plans

Ah, winter. Losing weight based on exercise alone isn't possible either because there are scientific reasons why exercise can cause you to gain weight. To start off, exercise increases your appetite which could lead to overeating during mealtimes. Also, excessive exercise can upset the balance of appetite-regulating hormones. Overly intensive workouts can ruin your appetite temporarily, which may lead to overeating in the next meal as a compensatory response.

Their ad campaign: For a Slender Figure—Reach for a Lucky Instead of a Sweet."
