When Is The Best Time To Exercise For Weight Loss

 Last week a notification popped up on my phone with the title: When Is The Best Time To Exercise For Weight Loss.  I wanted to watch this Dr Michael Greger Nutrition Facts. org podcast but did not have the time until this morning.  It gave some really interesting facts.

What I got out of the message was:  for weight loss it is best to (using walking as the exercise) walk before eating breakfast, especially if you walk for about 60 minutes. If not before breakfast then after fasting at least six hours and then walking before eating.

If you are diabetic, it is better to walk AFTER eating, for 10 minutes or more. We actually did this when I was at Parkview Hospital's Lifestyle Improvement Program years ago.  It worked then. I don't know why I stopped.

This seems so do-able and makes me want to get my act together and actually do it again.  (I just read the scripture that says "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." James 1:22.  This scripture might have application here!)



So I say to myself:  Just get up and go!  Like these two!  (This picture is meant to show people getting up and heading out for a walk...)
