It Takes An Hour To Burn 500 Calories; It Takes Seconds To Eat 500
72. It takes an hour to burn 500 calories; it takes seconds to eat 500.
“No matter how hard I work out, I just can’t seem to lose the weight.” The answer may be simple; you might be putting in more than you are burning out. This is the shortest explanation I have for any of the Tools. The amount of time it takes to burn calories doesn’t equal the amount of time it takes to consume them. Honestly, this is good because we wouldn’t be around long if the equation was reversed. But over the time of our evolution we have severely limited our need to go out and burn calories, and we have increased the ease with which we can add them. Understanding that our ability to burn is down and the access to consume is now cheap and easy, we must apply this knowledge to avoid the temptations that may ruin our efforts.
