With the high calorie foodstuffs that we have available oh so easy today, all attempts at weight losspretty much has to start with controlling your diet.

Unless you have your intake under control, it's really, really hard to exercise enough to compensate for overeating.

One single cupcake over your "allowance" can take a full hour of dedicated workout to use up.

Weight training is a so-so thing to do for weight loss. It can certainly improve your health, but what you want for a good calorie burn is a long, consistent increase of your heart rate, and you just don't get much of that from doing weights.

If you want to run long enough for it to really help with weight loss you need to aim for 45-60 minutes every 2nd-3rd day.

Part of it can also be that you are gaining muscle (muscle weighs more than fat).

One of the weights is for the hands to rotate and the other is for the chiming bells. they do different tasks. When I wind mine up after it has 'run out' it will often chime straight away but it will never tick till the pendulum is activated.
