[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 122887, member: 3907"] Hello everyone, I remember hearing on the radio a while ago that people who fidget tend to burn more calories and have a higher metabolism than those who sit still.:jumphappy: I googled, and found a couple of articles on it. There is more information available on the internet. [url]http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/1999/01/990119080449.htm[/url] [url]http://www.nytimes.com/2005/01/28/health/28weight.html[/url] So...maybe instead of a killer-hard exercise program, the secret to slimming down is to wiggle in your chair, swing your feet, pace up and down.:cutie_pie: This truly shows that every little bit helps. If doing no exercise at all, you can lose 30 lbs a year just by fidgeting, imagine the type of progress you can make by adding a 10 to 15 minute walk every day. I continue to be amazed by the marvel that is the human body. (At last, I feel vindication for all those aunties and teachers who were forever telling me to sit still. Maybe my health is a little bit better because I can't sit still. ) All the best, Trinity [/QUOTE]
