Hi everyone!

I love exercising, though I have been in a rut during these cold winter months. I am trying to get started again, and my question is this: I exercise purely for all of it's obvious benefits, but I DO NOT want to lose weight. I am 5'4 and 100 pounds. Will my body shed pounds if I exercise frequently, even if I don't need to lose weight?

Thank you for an insight you may have! :)

If you do weights you could gain weight. If you don't want to lose weight just adjust your calorie consumption.

^^^^ :yes:
Just compensate by eating the amount of calories you burn during exercise. There are plenty of calculators for this online, depending on what activities you do.
