Hello, Fast Fivers! I have yet another question, and I am just looking for general input/advice/points of view, not just the quote from the book. My question is, is exercise absolutely necessary?
Before you think I'm being lazy, let me explain. For the last three years, I have exercised NONSTOP, and made it a daily/almost daily habit to get at least an hour at a time in. It hasn't helped much with my weight anyways, although I can't say it hasn't done ANYTHING for me. I truly love working out, but sometimes I feel. . .burnt out. I feel tired of it, and taking two-three days off at a time doesn't help. Right now, I have gone two weeks without a workout, and kind of liking the break. While doing Fast Five, I don't feel the need to really exercise like crazy to burn calories, because fasting already burns stored fat. I don't feel as guilty as I would if I were snacking all day. I guess what I'm trying to ask is, is this bad? Do you all go through the same things? What do you do to get at least 1/2 hour in a day?
I also have a question regarding this on a more spiritual/philisophical level, if anyone cares to go here with me: Could fasting like this bring about a peace that enables me to not always feel the need to workout? Could this be my own way of 'healing' my obsession with exercise? Any thoughts on this?
Thank you for any input!!
April
