will running 4x a week make me loose weight????

Question

Hey everyone!
I had back surgery a month ago for a slipped disk in my back. Now I am starting physical therapy. My physical therapist said I should go to the gym 3-5 times a week (only on the treadmill and bike), so I can strengthen my legs. I am 114 pounds currently, but I don’t want to loose any weight. Will running make me loose weight...or will I just stay the same??
Thanks in advanced=)

p.s. I am 14 yr old girl, and 5’6.

Answer 1

You might lose some weight but if you eat a healthy diet you shouldn't. You will build muscle which may make you gain weight.

Answer 2

No, just eat healthy. You don't have to run, you can use the treadmill at an incline. That will do a whole lot better at strengthening your muscles in your legs than just walking.

Answer 3

u probaly will lose weight but if u eat well (not talking about chips and coke) ull gain the weight back

also it ahould be noteed that soing this will bring u to ur opotimum weight which just may be heavier or lighter

finally exercise is important u may be small but unheathy

Answer 4

running might make you lose a little weight, but you won't lose too much. you will also gain some lean muscle which weighs a little and if you strengthen your legs you will probably gain some more muscle.

Answer 5

Eat a healthy diet and you should not lose weight. Muscle weighs more than soft tissue.

Answer 6

I think that running is the worse exercise you can do, it doesnt tone you and its one of the only sports where people have died ie (marathons) and hasnt got banned. you shouldnt be rubnning in recovery to a slip disc anyway you need low impact exercises like the cross trainer
