You can bet that once the 2-week-long study was over and these men went back to their normal routines, their bodies began to return to normal, too. Our ancestors going back thousands and thousands and thousands of years spent most of their days on their feet—hunting, working in fields, or traveling from one place to the next over great distances. We’re genetically programmed to be active, to be up on our feet and moving around most of the day. When you deprive your body of this basic activity, your metabolism slows and you store energy as fat.

In the same way that you’ve been making simple changes to your diet, look for everyday opportunities to make better calorie-burning choices. Opt for the stairs over the elevator, take a stroll to the mailbox instead of driving to the post office, walk your dog instead of letting him out, cook a nice dinner instead of ordering in, or do some housework instead of plopping down in front of the television. The Lose It! app can show you the calorie-burn estimates for dozens of these activities, from playing catch to doing home repairs, so you can easily track your estimated calorie-burn. These small changes are entirely doable, and they will make a difference. It all comes down to personal decisions: Do you get up and move it to lose it for a few minutes at a time, or do you sit back and miss your chance to burn off breakfast?
