1200 Calories (Article)

Jenny recently posted this on Facebook and I thought it was definitely worth re-posting here.

The main point is that marketing to women only focuses on counting calories and gives no mention of quality of food or that you must eat more if you are exercising (or else enter starvation mode and completely set yourself up for failure).

She makes some good points about how women who have nice bodies work out with weights, not just endless cardio, and are heavier (but look slimmer) than their counterparts who don't exercise or only do cardio.

*Warning - it does get a little ranty by the end!
