Did the gardening help you to lose weight?

    Paul B3 - all that exercise will, if you converted fat to muscle - just mean you take up less space.

    Brisk walks and dancing do it for me.  Gardening makes me hungry and, after a good day and a long hot shower, I enjoy a glass of wine while I enjoy the results - vegetables, salads, fruit - so no, not good for weight loss tho it keeps one fitter and more flexible than sitting about.

    A full day in the garden for me, mowing, weeding, tidying can usually equate to 12000-14000 steps according to my iphone app, which is about 4 miles, its not a brisk rush around the garden but it must count for something......please tell me it counts for something, i sure know about it the next day, with aches and pains ?

    Yep Loana - good for your brain in more ways than one.
