I don't think it is for me.
I have a very sedentary desk job for 40+ hours a week.
I run 3 x a week approx 5-6 miles each time. I barely do anything else active, although I'm trying to stand up from my desk every hour or so.
I think I generally eat fairly healthily. I don't drink any more. I probably have been a bit too guilty of eating out of boredom at work, but I've stopped that now.
I've been steadily gaining weight with this lifestyle for 5 years (since I went through early menopause age 36). I've gained 2 stone since then. I've recently managed to reverse the trend, but only by calorie counting and restricting what I eat. I hate dieting. It feels totally unsustainable and boring.
I'd love to know if other people have a point where they can eat what they want eg run every day / run 30 miles a week etc?

Is it possible for you to exercise enough to eat whatever you want and not gain weight?
