PREVENT WEIGHT GAIN FOR LIFE

Set your watch - 40 minutes of exercise a day may be the magic number for staying slim, report University of Pittsburgh researchers. In a study of more than 200 women who had successfully completed a weight loss program, those who continued to exercise enough to burn about 1,835 calories a week were most likely to have kept the pounds off 2 years later. You can hit that number with 40 minutes of brisk walking a day, say researchers.
