Weight loss: 80% diet and 20% exercise?

What ever the numbers are I would say diet is always the greater percentage. Most people didn't consider that rest is a huge factor in health too. Think of it, you work out for around 7 hours/week out of 168hours... the rest of that time you're resting and working on your diet.
I would say it's
50% diet (includes clean food and water)
30% resting
20% exercise.0 -
Yes, but i do think anyone's bodies are different.0

I think your diet will determine your weight loss...but exercise will give your body the shape you want after you lose the extra weight.0

I'm inclined to agree with this. We all know you can be slim with out being fit and toned. I have yet to take up any formal exercise but I'm losing weight.0
