True or False: You Lose More Weight Doing Exercise You are Good At

False.  People become more efficient and expend less energy as they become experienced with a particular form of exercise.  A fit, experienced runner requires less energy to cover a set distance than an unfit individual of the same weight, age and gender. 

Weight loss requires excess energy expenditure, which comes more from activities with which an individual is not so familiar.

A cookie diet is simply eating a number of mini-meals (in the shape of a cookie) throughout the day followed by a sensible and balanced dinner.
