When I just exercised (step workout program, tree times a week) without changing my food habits, there was not any changes in my weight. But when I changed some habits (no sugar, no late evening meals, etc.) I experienced weight loss.

In my case, changing food habit was essential for weight loss.

I strongly thing that, Diet is priority

Controlled diet with little to zero fat is preferable. Continually, the body will start utilizing contents of the adipose tissues alongside to generate acetyl-CoA and will consequentially deplete fat contents in the body as time goes.

What about keto?

hello Angel Horner . thanks for participate in this topic.

I know that the ketogenic diet can increase the lipolysis and induce the fat oxidation. but I have some question for you. can we prescribe the keto diet for anyone? can we prescribe the keto diet for obese people? does keto diet can inducing ketosis immediately? although the keto diet one of popular way for weight lose but in some researches have been shown that it can has some side effect. the side effects are include: Constipation, Mineral and vitamin deficiency, Pancreatitis diseases, Kidney stone, cardio disruptives, Abnormal lipid profile, Low albumin, Low carnitine, Osteopenia. although these side effects cann’t occur in short period but For obese people cardio disruptives and Abnormal lipid profile are dangerous state because the ketosis in liver will begin after some days of start keto diet. nevertheless exercise in certain condition can stimulate immediately lipolysis and ketosis. maybe the following articles be useful for you.

Best regards.

Exercise is good but diet is a priority. Diet can be varied to meet the needs of the body.

Diet within reason.

More you will exercise with controlled diet more will be the fat loss.

According to both.

Exercise is the best to weight loss but diet is also mandatory. without proper diet exercise will not effect properly.

Good diet makes our immunity system strong to protect us from many sicknesses. Exercises is good to lose weight in the stomach. This fat in the stomach is the cause of many sicknesses. Exercise also makes us feel good about life. Together will be perfect. My experience is that I am controlling my diabetes since 2004 only by low carbohydrates diet ( almost only raw vegetables and fish) . I walk about 1/2 hour after eating.

Very nice reply@ Dr Z.E. Dadach

Also nice advice to all our RG collleagues.

Thanks

Diet first and then effective body exercise.

They are all imperative for weight loss but it all depends on the kind and to what extent

Both of them with a great will.

Both are effective but in my opinion exercise is better than diet for loss of weight especially for the loss of triglyceride or the saturated fatty acids which are very dangerous to the heart attack.

Both of them go hand in hand

I think both of them are effective. Exercise is good to lose weight, but diet is also compulsory and essential. So, diet is required and together will be perfect.

exercise (cardio + weight) with proper proportion of diet

A middle of the road approach is preferable. Following a carefully controlled dietary program coupled with rigorous exercise can have a great influence on fat loss.

Both but good diet first and then exercise.

I think both diet and exercise are important for fat loss.

kind regards

Both are essential

That's sure, both have specialized important.

The more you sustain the more you will be successful on fat loss.

Just change your diet a bit and do exercise, have a flexible mix of both. Remember most important thing in this journey that is CONSISTENCY. One full day of diet and second full day of heavy consumption will lead you to more worst situation. One week of long hours exercise and second week of rest will lead you no where.

So, we can do small things regularly to sustain long term.

Disclaimer: I am not an expert in this field, my exp is limited, if you would like to try, you can try and validate the above stance.

GOOD LUCK!

I think it depend on individuals.

diet and exercise both are important, exercise improves the fat burners which are the muscles.

both are essential but I do believe the calories matter in the end.

كلا العاملان مهمان ولكن يجب أن يكون هنالك توازن فيما بينهما من أجل التعرف علىكمية الدهون المحروقة ويجب أن نعلم ان الرياضة يحب ان تكون مستمرة خلاف الدايت الذي يجب ان ياخذ الشخص فترة انقطاع عنه لاسترجاع الصحة بصورة عامة خاصة تلك الانظمة الغذائية القاسية والسبب في ذلك ان عملية حرق الدهون تزداد بازدياد الاستمرارية في ممارسة الرياضة معا لتوفيق

If you're only interested in fat loss, dieting is the best option, but combining with exercise it will add all the benefits related to physical activity (and of course you'll be burning some more calories)

a healthy life, complete and balanced diet and of course exercise are very important to be healthy and in good shape. you have to avoid junk food and eat lots of fruit

Physical activity must be in the first place, but not intense exercise. The recommendation is a long walk (on average 6-8 kilometers per day).

Dear Seyyed Vahid Hosseini

Both are important for fat loss.

Please see the following link.

Thanks!

Exercise with proper diet plan is more practical approach. Both diet or exercise will not alone satisfy the fat loss in proper manner .i.e health aspects of individual.

Respected dear Dr. Seyyed,

Both of them are important. But for me I found that the diet is more effective than the exercise during the program of weight loss.

If you just watch what you eat and simply sit on your couch, it isn't healthy. In my view, you need both in moderation to live a healthy life.

Michele Olson, PhD, professor of physical education and exercise science at Auburn University at Montgomery, Alabama

you can lose weight with diet alone, but exercise is an important component. Without it, only a portion of your weight loss is from fat . Since working out stimulates growth of those metabolic tissues, losing weight through exercise means you’re burning mostly fat. The number on the scale may not sound as impressive, but because muscle takes up less space than fat does, you look smaller and your clothes fit better.

Data show that to lose weight with exercise and keep it off, you don’t need to run marathons. You just need to build up to five to seven workouts a week, 50 minutes each, at a moderate intensity, like brisk walking or Zumba. Resistance training helps, too.

And, of course, beyond burning fat, people shouldn’t forget that exercise can have other impressive health perks, like improving the quality of your sleep, lowering your cholesterol and reducing your stress level.

Diet is first then exercise and both very important

Regards

Diet before exercise. But they move together

Dear Seyyed Vahid Hosseini

Good day. To begin with the concept seems as simple as anything i.e.,

INPUT vs OUTPUT,implying whatever you eat, you can metabolize by exercise.

But on a serious note the question is a difficult one with variability related with both exercise and diet.

Exercise varies between simple self-satisfying walk to endurance ones and yes later category seems to be more protective and makes you feel healthier. Moreover, the benefit exceeds beyond become simply obese as the attached diagram can depict. It can cause improvement in immune functions, and causes release of hormones like endorphin and also decreases certain inflammatory markers. So exercise benefits exceeds far beyond the conventional balancing thought process.

Diet similarly varies as to what you eat. The need was to have a balance between intake of proteins, fats, carbs, minerals and nutrients. Sometimes the diet plans does not address everything and can cause nutrient deficiencies. Moreover, items like processed food, intake of diets with more triglycerides and cholesterol can not lead to obesity but also cancers. Similarly, a diet with protein than needed as sometimes given as a protein supplements can cause rise in creatinine and distortion of renal filtration functions.

So while we try to strike the balance, we need to understand what are we balancing with. A simple balance is probably not the better approach.

Basing on my experience for those who wish loose fat (it never was my problem. I spent over 1 year at the hospital) - diet is much more effective. But exercise divided in time 2-3 months is also important - to recover the muscles.

Balanced diet as well as regular exercise. If you are young, go for vigorous exercise and if you are old moderate exercise will be better.

Take your food just like medicine then forgot all kind of medicines .

Active lifestyle is must with controlled foods.

you can lose weight with diet alone, but exercise is an important.

exercise special after lost weight

To keep fit body shape And muscle development is needed after the diet.

Diet or exercise/ which one is more important than other for fat loss?

Actually both are important but in the scenario to choose either one - cut down diet is more impactful because through exercise to reduce weight / fat can risk overeating after exercise if there is no self-control which can defeat the purpose to lose weight / fat.

Personally I find that to lose weight in long term should explore cutting down diet but to lose weight in short term e.g. to reduce weight in order to participate in certain categories of the competition e.g. like boxing, Judo etc. then exercise can be a short term measure.

Diet and exercise are both are important for weight loss, balanced diet and everyday excercise are most important.

Regards.

Thank you for your participate in this topic.

Diet is more important. One should have to be a active in exersice also.

I would say regular exercise is more important than diet

Both are very important. One should eat a balanced healthy diet accompanied by exercise that depends on the age of the person, a young one with heavy exercise while older people should perform moderate one

Both are needed. Diet is a prevention and exercise is a cure.

Both Diet and Exercise are important to fat loss. Controlled diet is required to loss fat with exercise.

Almost everyone knows what to do for loosing fat; however, how you could follow "what to do" consistently is the question with most of the people including me.

Determination to loose fat in front of "my favorite sweet dish" and "sleep" weakens easily....Need advice on same !
