An increase metabolism provides many benefits to help maintain continuous and permanent weight loss:
-less exercise would be needed - giving you more time
-less effort if you did exercise - no n
eed to try burning lots of calories during each session!
-less chance of weight regain later
-still enjoy some favorite foods - no need to be as strict on the diet
-less time spent preparing
low / non fat recipes and meals
-save money from not needing to buy all the expensive low fat varieties
-more chance majority of weight loss is fat rather than water
|
Effective fat loss cannot occur when the metabolism is low!
-Its a physiological fact that when losing weight we also lose protein from muscle. The faster the weight loss the more protein is used f
or energy and/or protein synthesis and a net loss of protein will always decrease the metabolism.
-As protein is lost from cells it gradually lowers the total lean body weight, this affects the bo
dy composition and lowers the metabolism. As this occurs it means we gradually require less calories to maintain weight so if the present diet is continued results will eventually stop, its even possi
ble to slowly GAIN back weight that was previously lost!

What is the 'average' person's Basal Metabolic Rate (Metabolism) ?
-As a very rough guide, the average person's BMR is about half a calorie per pound of body weight, per hour. So, if you weigh 140
pounds you will use up approximately 70 calories an hour or 1680 calories per day doing nothing.

How does Human Metabolism Work?- Physical activity
The amount of energy the body burns during daily activities such as exercise, recreation, work, housework, etc. Daily physical activities accoun
t for 20 - 40% of calories burned each day. This part will vary depending on the individual and how active they are each day. A sedentary person will require less calories to maintain weight than a bu
sy worker in a construction site!
