He then over-fed people whose weights had not remained constant in exercise the past and found that they showed no increase in metabolism but became fat. So two people of the same size, doing the same work and eating the same food will react quite differently when they overeat. One will stay the same weight and the other will gain. We all know exercise that this is true even without scientific proof and yet the fact has not been taken into account or explained by exercise any of the experts who write popular books and articles about slimming. They write as though fat people and thin people deal with food in the same way. Here is the medical correspondent of The Times (11th March, 1957) On the subject: " It is no use saying as so many women do 'But I eat practically nothing.' The only answer to this is: No matter how little you imagine you eat, if you wish to lose weight you must eat less.' Your reserves of fat are then called on to provide the necessary energy-and you lose weight." The doctor who wrote these rather heartless words may fairly he taken as representative of medical opinion to-day.
