If you walk to work instead of drive, you are more likely to lose weight and keep it off. Swapping out your morning drive for public transportation, walking, or biking will help your body in the long run. “The longer the commute, the greater the weight loss: People with one-way active commutes longer than 30 minutes lost more than 15 pounds on average over two years…Another study of 12,000 people in U.S. metro areas published in July in the online journal PLOS One found a robust association between biking or walking to work and lower body-mass index. Researchers say active commuting holds promise to help people keep weight off once they lose it, which is particularly striking as most people who diet eventually regain the pounds.” While the weather is still nice out, get fit by taking alternate transport to work.
