Diane P, thank you so much for posting this and also giving us the link to this article. I had heard about the story and I'm glad I got the chance to read it. I think everyone posting has made some excellent points. I've always loved to dance and I can certainly see the difference in my body when I'm doing it regularly versus when I take time off. But I have a good friend who recently lost a ton of weight and she virtually whispered to me over her latte one day that she didn't feel exercise was a huge part of her success. She did exercise and she does think it's definitely important for overall health, but as a calorie burner she didn't think it was making that much of a difference for her. So I guess there are two sides for sure to this article, which sometimes depend on your own experiences. Thanks again everyone for your insight--this has been a great discussion! Michelle
