    Depends on your definition of FIT and how fit you want to be. 7 days a week is certainly not needed, but I like to get into a daily habit such that when life gives me a rest day, I just take it in stride.

    As to the eating for nutrition, not for taste...that is absurd. Every bite of everything I put in my mouth is yummy. 95% of it is also very nutritious. Eating healthy does not in any way have to be bland or tasteless.

    if you eat anything other than broccoli and work out less than 4x a day there will be no progress...

    if you hate exercise, you WON'T stick with it.

    I always THOUGHT i hated exercise, but then figured out I really DO LOVE IT

    but, as others have said, you lose WEIGHT in the kitchen. fitness is gained in the gym. For your own health I would recommend doing some sort of pysical activity, but find something you ENJOY- whether its yoga or swimming or whatever. That way, youll stick with it.
