why is my boyfriend loosing weight faster than me????

Question

it sux cause we eat the same and do the same exercises....

Answer 1

Because men really don't give a rat's *** and they burn calories in their sleep!! They have more muscle mass so they burn more calories even when resting. I swear I just have to mention to my husband that we need to pay attention to what we're eating and he drops 5 pounds that night.

Answer 2

Males have a higher ratio of muscle, which helps them burn the fat faster. Female hormones also make your body want to retain fat and water. Ironically, drinking more water helps with this by flushing out salts and helping metabolism. If your boyfriend is working out, though, he could "gain" some weight back because muscle is heavier than fat.

Answer 3

Men have faster metabolisms the females and burn more calories because of more muscle mass.

Answer 4

generally b/c they have less to lose. yup, it sucks, but its true. try not to rely so much on weight/pounds to define how well you are doing. get your gym to do a 'tanita' body fat print out: it shows the % of fat, muscle, water, bone etc in your body. over time get it done again and you will see how your pounds may be the same but you have decreased your fat % and upped your muscle %. (as well as fending off diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol, YAY!)
