You're an active lot!

Last week we asked if you exercise. I must admit to being quite surprised at the result, with almost two thirds of you saying you do, and that you started it before you started fasting. I suppose being someone who has always abhorred exercise this seems strange to me! It seems this way of eating attracts people who are already on the path to a healthier life as well as those who want to lose weight.

A further 17% of you say you've started exercise since fasting, it's great to see you're trying to tone up and improve your overall health through fitness as well as food.

I'm among the 9% who say they want to start some kind of exercise soon, though until recently I've been unable to due to ill health, along with another 8% of you.
