In my job I am constantly running around for more that 8-12 hrs and as other colleagues of mine has stated the sweat is always pouring out of us. Our query is if we are excercising so much at work then how are we not all size zeros.

Yes we do have the odd guilty pleasure of a chocolate bar but this does not out weigh how much exercise we do.

Most people are incapabe of being a size 0.

The other thing is that although you are working hard and sweating, you probably are not maintaining a consistent training heart rate, which is fairly important in serious weight loss.

I venture to guess that there aren't a lot of size 26s running around your work also, right?

Basically what you will find is a lot of middle of the road, probably on the trimmer side than your average office.

The older you get the more issues you have about why you can't lose weight.
*Your metabolism slows down
*Your hormones get imbalanced
*Processed/prepackaged foods
*What you have eaten through the years
*many prescription medicines will also cause weight problems

Processed foods, fast foods, foods with artificial sweetener and many other everyday foods we eat are packed with message and other preservatives that we don't even realize cause us to pack on the pounds.

People who eat foods of their country and not the foods that Americans eat are way healthier and live into their 100's with no medication... and no weight problem.

It is a fact that when countries start eating the Standard American Diet that their country begins becoming overweight and having our health problems.

Places like Okinawa Japan eat whole grains, nuts, vegetables and fruits and they are one of the healthiest places in the world and their average life span can run to 120 yrs old.

Simple changes like

Not eating or drinking artificial sweetened stuff
Switching to olive oil instead of Crisco/Wesson
Cutting down on meat consumption
Switching to sea salt instead of table salt
Not using the microwave
Balancing your PH
Are all good starts to switching your metabolism and your health back.
