Increase the metabolism for less chance of water weight loss!
-If more protein is lost more water is also lost because protein holds four times its weight in water. Think about if a person lost 5 p
ounds in a week, that would require an extra 17500 calories so how could all this weight possibly be fat. In fact over a week only about 1 pound of the 5 pounds lost would be fat, the rest would be mo
stly water!
-Protein and its fluid replacement is the main reason many dieters regain weight after a diet. Again think about if someone regained 4 pounds in a week then does it mean that person has
eaten an extra 14000 calories?
-Increasing the metabolism means the body has a reason to hold onto protein thus less water is lost

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!

Speed Up Metabolism
-Increasing the speed of our metabolism is probably one of the easiest ways to lose weight naturally.
-Speeding up the metabolism creates some benefits that will maintain we
ight loss progress.
-less exercise would be needed - giving you more time
-less effort if you do exercise
-less chance of weight regain after dieting
-still enjoy some favorite foods
-l
ess time spent preparing healthy low fat meals
-save money from not buying all the expensive low fat varieties

-WEIGHT GAIN
-BODY COMPOSITION:
-SEX:
-AGE
-DRUGS
-HEREDITARY
-HORMONES

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
-In order to compare one person's metabolism with another's, scientists have devised a new buzz word - basal metabolic rate (BMR). Your BMR is the rate at which you use u
p energy when at rest - e.g. when you are sleeping or just lying in bed. You might call it your tick over speed.
- The more you weigh the higher your BMR will be. The metabolic rate of very fat wom
en is 25% higher than that of thin women.
- BMR is much greater in childhood than in adulthood. After the age of about 20, it drops about 2 per cent, per decade.
- People whose bodies contai
n a higher proportion of muscle to fat, tend to have a higher BMR than those with lower muscular proportions - all other things being equal.

From the viewpoint of diet and weight loss, metabolism is the process whereby the body converts food into energy (or uses it for bodily repairs) or stores it as fat for future use. In simple terms, if
we have a faster metabolism we burn calories more efficiently and store less fat. If we have a slower metabolism we burn calories less efficiently and therefore store more calories as fat. In very si
mple terms, our Metabolic Rate is the rate (and efficiency) with which our body performs these metabolic tasks.
