Weight loss during sex

 Many newly engaged women drop weight without even trying from the stress and
anxiety of planning a wedding and in some ways, New York City-based model and
actress Kerry McCloskey was no exception. She lost 23 pounds in the six months
after she got engaged, but it wasn't from stress. It was from sex -- lots of
it!

Sex is a form of exercise especially if you incorporate different
positions," she says. "If you move around a little bit and flex your
muscles, it can be a very good exercise," she says.

Recent research shows that exercise in short bursts over the course of the day can be as effective as 30 to 40 minutes in a row. "You could use sex as 15 to 20 minutes of your exercise routine and then do something else at a different point of the day."

Another perk: "Sex is the kind of exercise that most people don't find boring," Berman says.

"Getting to the point where you are highly aroused and reaching orgasm can be good cardiovascular activity," she says. "That's why we tell people in poor cardiovascular health to avoid sex," she says.
