who loses weight faster men or women?????

Question

i need some facts or websites that prove it thanks . I think men do i need to win the bet.

Answer 1

Men. My husband and I went on a diet on the same day- he lost 6 pounds and I gained 2 LOL (and HE cheated)

"Gender: Men generally have faster metabolisms than women because they’re larger and have less body fat. Men’s basal metabolic rate is estimated to be 10 percent to 15 percent higher than women’s."

Answer 2

I think whoever does the most work at losing weight gets better results. In a controlled experiment, the two subjects need to have similar physical characteristics. You cannot compare men and women who have vastly different metabolisms, exercise routines, and food intake. To just conclude that men lose weight faster than women due to muscle mass is not acceptable.

Answer 3

Men do because caloric consumption is based largely on muscle percentages. Men have much higher muscle mass, and therefore burn more calories, and therefore can lose weight faster. That is assuming the WAY a man loses weight is correct.

Answer 4

I've always been told than men do, because they have more muscle mass than women do. If you've ever watched The Biggest Loser, you'd have seen that the men almost always lose quicker than the ladies. I also belong to two weight loss support groups, and that's what I've heard there too. One is at www.tops.org and the other is at www.sparkpeople.com. Check out those sites and see if they have this info there. TOPS costs $24 per year to join, and SparkPeople is a free website. <*)))><

Answer 5

Eat nourishing food with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables being part of it. Chew each morsel at least 32 times. This will activate signal to the brain as soon as u have had enough. Please eat only when u r hungry and not more than three times in 24 hours. Take only water in between. Besides this change in eating style, take regular light exercises and brisk walks every day. U will be able to gain/shed all extra weight gracefully and in a reasonable time span.

Sex does not decide about the quantum of loss. It is the input/output balance which determines the quantum of reduction coupled with metabolic rate.

Answer 6

Eat 5 6 small meals a day instead of 3

Answer 7

I think you'll find thaat only variable that makes a difference is total weight. Men burn more calories per pound, but that is because we usually have a higher percentage of muscle, and muscle also weighs more than fat.

Answer 8

Men. Probably do to having more muscle. I just dropped 7 lbs. in two weeks running again and cutting back on all the holiday goodies.

Answer 9

men lose weight faster because it's harder for a women due to her period and hormones.

Answer 10

Definitely men, because they have more muscle mass than women do, and muscle burns more calories:) Try webmd for a source:)
