I've read Gretchen Reynolds's articles for decades and trust her and her commentaries. But what I've also learned through the years is that you have to trust your body.
I agree with you totally--exercise is important, very important! And preventing premature death is paramount.
One way or the other, I want to be in good health when I go! So I'll just keep exercising ;-)
I read those New York Times articles. I was actually encouraged, because it’s so hard to lose weight and keep it off that I find it better not to even go there. So the answer that exercise is worth doing independent of weight loss encourages me to keep going. And to look forward to health benefits of exercise.
