How much exercise do other people do to lose weight?

Enough to burn almost 2,700 calories a week…

or roughly 385 calories a day.

This is equivalent to about 60 minutes of exercise a day.
What if I don’t have time to exercise 60 minutes a day?

    More than 2,700 members of the National Weight Control Registry lost an average of nearly 73 lbs with this amount of exercise.
