I heard that extremely obese people can lose weight faster than others, is that true?
True and False. It takes about 3500 calories burned off to lose 1 pound of fat. So in that respect no, it takes the same amount of energy consumed for a fat or a skinny person to lose a pound. However due to their large mass, the metabolic requirement for all that tissue, they may have a higher sum of required energy (basal metabolic rate) than that of someone who is 100 pounds. It is also more work for them to move the larger mass, hence they burn more calories per step versus someone who weighs 100 pounds, so in that respect it is true. Now if someone were to be 3-400 pounds of muscle then yes they would burn energy at a much faster rate because the metabolic requirements of muscle are far greater than that of fat.
Yes, they do. Because they have much more to lose, so it comes off faster, but when they get down to an average weight, the losses will slow down.
Its because they get gastric bypass surgery.
not nessesaraly. they might loose it faster because they work really hard but u can loose it just as fast. u just have to be determined.
People with large amounts of weight initially drop weight faster but eventually it comes down to diet and exercise. The closer you are to your ideal weight the tougher it is. Those last 5 - 10 pounds take for ever This is not professional but from years of experience. Mine and others. Losing weight quickly usually gains back just as quickly.
No, that s propaganda to make it look like these diets or exercise things work. People have to exercise and eat right all the time. If they do, they will lose weight.
At first yes, its the it is the lst 10 lbs that is hard for most everyone
yeah they do, they have more to loose....ya know?
They lose more weight because they have it but everyone is different; one person can drop pounds in mere months while, for others, it takes time.
Probably not !! Otherwise they wouldn t weigh 3-400 pounds !!
Depends on how hard they try to lose weight and what they do to lose weight.
yes
yes they do, because a person who weighs 300 or 400lbs needs about 4000 calories per day or 28000 per week to maintain that weight. if they only consume about 2000 calories per day or 14000 per week then they will have consumed 14000 less calories in a week. which is about 4lbs. if someone who only weights 180 pounds needs about 2000 calories per day to maintain that weight. then they would have to consume about 1500 per day. any lower and their metabolism will start to slow down, which will slow down your fat burning. if they consume 1500 calories a day, then the will only lose about 1lb a week. the really overweight people can afford to drop more calories without slowing their metabolism. also, an overweight person doing the same excersize that an average person does will burn more calories because they need more energy to do so because they have more weight to move.
yes they have much more weight to loose therfore their bodies give up their fat resources easier then people with trim bodies because the body hangs on to the fat as much as possible
