when you go from a high calorie diet, such as 3500 calories or more per day down to 1000 calories per day, your body assumes that you must be facing a famine and potential starvation, so it lowers your metabolism to conserve energy as long as possible. |
How can someone say for certaint that it takes a net loss of 3500 calories to lose 1 pound of fat, but go on to say eating less calories will inhibit the amount of weight you lose?
That's rhetorical... since it's obviously contradictory.
