Your answers to these exercise questions though, show that you get very little physical exercise and if you want to lose weight you are probably in need of more. Remember that ALL physical activity promotes improved health and helps you lose and maintain your new weight. Starting with stretching exercises will help you get going. 6-10 p From your answers to this exercise questionnaire we can make the conclusion that you are in need of increased physical exercise. No need to panic though, your present physical activity is positive, but could be increased to give you more energy to meet the needs of your life and help your weight loss. 11-17 p Your answers to these exercise questions show that you get enough physical exercise and activity on a daily basis. Health wise you are in pretty good shape and you have set a foundation for increasing your exercise now that you want to lose weight. 18-21 p Health wise you are in a very good shape, but you already know that. You are highly conscious of your physical exercise needs and proactive in your exercise regime. You are somebody who has already incorporated regular activity into your daily life. Keep up the good work, but remember you can always rev up your routine another notch if you want to lose more weight.
