I am petite as well and opted for the couch potato approach. Looking back at my sway my only slight regret is not doing the exercise. But I really doubt I could have kept up with the diet and exercise without loosing ovulation. We are expecting boy #4. I know this baby boy was meant to join our family, so I am pretty sure exercise or not he would be ours!
Do what works best for you, but ask yourself now if you will regret not including it in your sway if you end up with a boy.

OMG these darn stats are going to be the death of me. You guys have GOT to quit treating them like they were handed down on tablets to Moses or something.
30 people is not enough of a sample size for anything. Whereas the stats for the LE Diet are for 250 people and is much more reliable.
Everyone who was doing exercise was doing diet too. Exercise doesn't exist in a vaccuum alone, it's WITH diet and weight loss. I can guarantee ya that level of exercise with an overall blue friendly diet and gaining weight would NOT be getting that high of results. And for the most part the few people who did exercise, were very strict in pretty much every way and are NOT indicative of what the average person can expect.
I totally and completely expect the numbers on exercise to come down as more people do it. If they don't, that is great but we can't then assume that diet is crap and oh yeah let's just drop that, because the diet, exercise, weight loss are working in unison.!!!

I honestly can't totally say how much is enough and it almost certainly varies by individual. I picked the 60 6-7 as what I think will work for most people most of the time, even when not awesome on diet. I DO think that it's possible to get a girl doing less (and I do think the 60 min is more important) but 3 days a week feels too moderate to me and I wouldn't risk it.

Yeah, I think of the 90% as the stats on exercise + LE diet. It's important to remember that!

It's def the combination that sways, not exercise alone. If you're eating few proteins than you'll loose muscles mass regardless execising or not. To me, exercise accelerates the muscles breakdown, plus it lowers blood sugar to the 'max'.
Probably that 90% must come down, but i hope not! (I know of two more swayers who don't post here with positive results). It would be very helpfull to add to the sheets how many days a week one exercised.Mother of'08 and

I didn't, I was super couch potato and I'm not petite, I just couldn't see myself exercising that often and that long and I knew I was going to do less than required and end up having a boy because of that. I always remember reading that if I couldn't commit to that strenuous routine, might as well not do any at all as it sways blue, so I dropped exercise completely and am having a girl.
