Why your support matters
You are half right. Exercise is not the best way to lose weight. You literally have to be like Phelps, the swimmer, ie exercise 24/7 and be able to eat 10,000 calories but 99% of us can’t do it.
A moderate amount of exercise can make you feel better, prevent aches and pains and tone your body but if you go over that, you run into the same problems as couch potatoes, ie all sorts of knee, back, feet problems among other things.
Nothing wrong with your group but to lose weight you don’t have to join any type of org.
Just limit calories.
If you want to lose weight you will, if not you won’t. Period.
