Walking vs. Exercise

"Stop walking" - I told my 100kg patient.

He looked at me like I was crazy.

"But doctor, I've been walking 10,000 steps daily for 10 years!"

"Then why haven't you lost weight? Why is your diabetes still there?"

He went quiet.

Here's the fact → Exercise doesn't change your weight.

Diet decides weight. Exercise decides shape.

My patient Sanjay was doing everything "right" - walking an hour every day, hitting his step count. But the scale wasn't moving.

So we did something different. We stopped the walking.

Instead, we fixed his diet, added fasting. Changed what he ate, not how much he moved.

His waist dropped below 36 inches. His chest became broader than his waist.

Walking is great for fitness. But if you want to lose weight, fix food on your plate first.

Your kitchen will change your weight faster than your sneakers ever will.

P.S. How many hours do you walk daily but still struggle with weight? Be honest.
