It’s about making healthy lifestyle decisions that fit into your day-to-day schedule. I get an hour of exercise a day just by riding my bike to work, and the reason I’m able to do that is my main criteria for buying a house was living in a walkable neighborhood and being able to ride my bike to work.

Not having time to exercise is a symptom of not living in a walkable neighborhood.

Also, it's not about healthy lifestyle decisions: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10541056/

From the abstract:

Over the past three decades, researchers have found that biopsychosocial factors determine weight gain much more than personal choices and responsibility.
