Bingo! A lack of real-world tools is the problem. Crazy fast weight loss, diet pills, hrs of cardio per day, starvation diets, etc. Science has KNOWN, FOR MANY YEARS that this screws up metabolism. This study is NOT revealing some shocking new discovery about metabolism. The premise of the show itself: INtense competition and a win at all cost mentality to lose weight as quickly as possible via idiotic methods is the problem. The "trainers" absolutely disgust me! Having a certification means you took the coursework. It doesn't mean you automatically intelligently apply what you learned. Their choices of exercise and activities were ridiculous in many cases. A 350 lb woman running? Doing freaking handstands? Seriously? What about joint damage or muscle tears? But hey, it looks "hardcore " and "extreme" so its good TV, ....right? And no, I was never 200 lbs overweight, but I took a slow and consistent approach and made MASSIVE changes to BOTH my body and MIND. I actually changed my lifestyle and educated myself about exercise and nutrition and while I can easily add fat, maintaining a healthy weight is almost easy....now. No, not easy as in " I can go back to eating a box of crackers, a half block of cheese ,half a jar of olives and a 32 ox Pepesi for a meal." and stop exercising daily (45 minutes). But, ikt is doable and is not a hassle. People need education and tools in addition to the desire to change. I had the desire, but took time to educate myself and acquire tools. It was worth it.

Scott Holley: now _50 pounds_ in 14 months and still going fine. Slow and steady. Like riding a glacier but when you look back you see how far you've come. Re-educating yourself is key. Lifetime dedication to ones own health and body is key. We no longer lock up the potato chips. I'm happy now with a single-serving size bag once in a while at a meal. I know I can have any type of food I want...I just can't have all the food I can eat like I used to. I have one plate and sometimes don't finish that. We've gone down to only two meals a day, and today we're looking at only one--and aren't particularly hungry. Intermittent fasting, times when you simply aren't going to eat, is helpful. Also helpful are new hobbies, new activities, new things to think about, new connections to the outer world. Light exercise, particularly some muscle building by lifting small weights, can help some, but basically it's all about the food and how much MY body needs, not how much someone else eats or how much I'm served at a restaurant. It is doable. It was a hassle at first, but I look back now and realize how much I've learned and changed in 14 months. I won't go back.

The study only included biggest losser contestants. It doesn't and can't prove anything about slow weight loss because they simply weren't included. The vast majority of people that want to loss weight do so with the intention of reaching a certain weight rather than a permanent lifestyle changes. Many adopt extreme diets to achieve this goal that are never going to be sustainable. They pile on the pounds again because they stop paying attention to what they're eating so old bad habits slowly creep back and before you know it they are right back where they started. Some individuals don't have the luxury of not paying attention to what their eating. I'm one of them. Was always fat as a kid. Yo-yo dieted for years. Today I've lost 46 lbs and kept it off for a year because I pay attention to what I eat. I know if I don't old habits will slip back because they've been ingrained from childhood.

I lost more than 100lbs and currently I don't have any metabolic damage. I burn as much as I should each day. I didn't do it with any special diet such as veganism or high protein. I just ate at a small deficit (1500-1800 calories for a 5'1'' woman) and worked out frequently but not to a point that I damage my -then unfit- body. I feel sorry for these people because they were treated with extreme diets and exercise regimens but didn't learn beforehand the reasons they're having these bad habits. I still have bad days where I struggle with maintaining my weight and I certainly worry about losing control again. I've maintained for over 2 years now, I am proud but I still have a journey to make, that being a journey of self acceptance. Weight loss is simple: eat less junk and move more. The mindset is the thing that has to change for good to start and/or maintain the weight loss. No specific diet, workout program will do this for you. It's only you and that's the wonderful aspect of it. Get to know how strong you are and get yourself where you really deserve to be. :) P.S. We are far more than what we weigh or what we eat. So a good tip to people who wanna lose weight is to find something that you like and go for it. It can be anything as long as you like it. Extend yourself further than food and body image and express yourself. Anything that makes you feel well is more likely to help you making yourself healthier!

You have to understand how weight loss works, it’s scientifically proven. Your fat cells don’t disappear when you loose weight, your empty fat cells signal your brain that they are empty, thus you are starving, so your body makes sure your metabolism slows down tremendously. It’s not for nothing that the chances of anyone keeping weight loss on the long term is less then 5%. Also the hormones are sooo out of whack when you loose weight this fast, fat cells release huge amounts of hormones when you loose weight. It’s so easy to judge when you don’t understand how the body and metabolism actually works, it’s simply not sustainable. This is coming from someone who lost 165 pounds, and I have kept it off for 2 years now. Your body will do everything to go back to that weight, believe you me, I cannot eat the way I did when I was at this weight 15 years ago, not even close, eating more than 1000 calories a day is not doable for me to keep this weight off. Im well, but I have very big hormonal issues that my doctors are trying to resolve. Maybe research scientific evidence instead of making quick and totally wrong judgments.

These poor individuals did not learn about proper nutrition and they did far too much exercise whilst on the ranch, hence they lost that weight too fast. 90 days and exercising 4+ hours a day, what does one expect. They need to get in more strength and weight training. They do far too much cardio. Strength training will help set their metabolisms right again but it will take time, and cardio will need to be reduced. The Biggest Loser needs to take some tips from that other show, Extreme Weightloss. The way they encourage the participants to lose weight over an entire year and not just a couple of months is the way it should be done. They still work but have to learn to fit in the exercise and good eating in between. The Biggest Loser doesn't care about these participants. The creator even said so himself when the consultant dietitians told him safe weightloss is 1-3 pounds a week. He said but after 3 months that'll only be on average 30 pounds lost. That doesn't make for an exciting TV program. Smh

Absolutely disagree with you. Starvation, severe dieting and overexercise will slow down your metabolism. Look at the Minnesota Semi-Starvation Experiment from 1944. The show did not allow for a natural normal progression in weight loss, it was a crash diet... thus obviously changes in metabolism happened drastically. On the show they exercised for 8 hours a day. This is not normal, nor sustainable. It is not the lack of discipline that caused the weight gain. My argument is that it is the ridiculous nature of the way it was taken off in the first place. It was never taken off in a way that was meant to be kept off.

ANNA ROSE: I agree. It's not that low. You can work around your totals and plan treats and cheat meals and it is possible.

At some point, it'll have to be closer to 1200 and that IS starting to get a little tight. Truth is, we're used to eating a LOT of food these days. FAR more than our ancestors ate, and with far less physical labor involved, too. When you worked dawn to dusk every day outside, in all weather, to grow your own food, care for animals, maintain a home and a farm and everything, it was a far harder life. It's so easy today to get fat! We have all the food we could ever possibly eat, and so little actual WORK. Half an hour exercise hardly compares to a full day's farming! 1400 today, 466 calories a meal, is reasonable enough! Better yet, go down to two meals a day and eat 700 calories each.

It is fine, if you don't expect to make food a primary recreation. Below 1200 calories, people become depressed because that really is getting too low. "Starvation" level would be somewhat individualized, as are all calorie counts. If the woman in the video gains weight on more than 1400 calories a day, then 1400 is not starvation level for her, it's maintenance level. In the Nazi concentration camps, the prisoners were getting something like 600-800 calories a day, cabbage water or potato water and bread. That was starvation level, both in calories and nutrition.

Jillian Smith this is a great tip. What I find is that, combining a calorie deficit with intermittent fasting, I can eat fewer meals that leave me feeling fuller. I usually eat my first meal at 12:00 pm, have a small snack at around 3:00pm and then dinner at 7:00 or 7:30. I am down 30 pounds in 3 months and dropping fast. It is also important to keep in mind that not all calories are created equal when it comes to "feeling full." You will feel a lot fuller after eating a salad loaded with bell peppers, cucumbers and pine nuts with a 5oz portion of salmon than you will after getting the same number of calories from 4 bites of cheesecake.

Sorry but if you can´t feel full on 1400 calories a day, it means you don´t eat enough nutrient dense foods. Not only she won´t feel full but will be lacking nutrients. So nutrient free foods have to go. A kilo of cucumber (around two and a half big ones) has only 150cals. For the same amount, you can have just 100g of cooked pastas which is just 42-43 g of dry pasta (an average package being 500g, you already see how less it is). The most important thing is to learn to make low calories but delicious meals. Make ice cream out of just a frozen banana with (sugar free) cacao or vanilla or whatever taste you want, tastes delicious and has only around 89 cals per 100g (plus a little if cacao is added... So a three banana ice will be maximum 300 calories and it´s like a full bowl of it. Use zucchini instead of pasta , cauliflower instead or rice (plus, it´s better to keep carbs and fats separated, so it´s a win win). Also intermittent fasting will help. If you´re eating only one meal or two meals a day, suddenly, 1300-1400 calories looks like a lot more. You could eat a fruit meal first for 600-800 calories and be full, then do your dinner with no carbs and protein and fat for 600-800 calories (whatever meal you want to be bigger) and be totally satisfied. For each meal you love, there is a low calories, delicious version to be made, vegan or none vegan.

If you eat highly processed crap instead of clean, whole foods, of course you'll feel famished eating only 1400 cal a day.

I became obese in my teens. My family was homeless, and we ate whatever the homeless shelters gave us. Which was usually bread, pasta, and canned food. It made me feel sick, tired, and have migraines. I couldn't concentrate at school. I left school early, and got odd jobs. I was able to buy apples, and oranges. They made me feel good. But I still couldn't lose weight. A famous martial arts instructor decided to teach me martial arts for free if I maintained his gym. I stopped eating food from homeless shelters. I only ate two cheap fruits or carrots per day. Sometimes nothing at all. I exercised 4-6hrs per day for 3yrs. I became anorexic, because only beautiful skinny women get jobs in which they face customers. I noticed that when applying for jobs. One day I injured my foot, and knee badly. I couldn't exercise. I couldn't buy my own food for 2months. My family brought me canned food, and bread. Within a week I was putting on lots of weight. So much weight that I had to go back to hospital to get a new cast on my leg. After 2 months I was back to my obese size plus a little extra. I felt like the past 3yrs was a waste of time. Today I'm having trouble losing weight. I do plenty of exercise, because I can't afford a car. I walk 40min to shops, and 40min back with heavy items. I also do heavy labor intensive jobs daily. I don't buy junk food. I only eat junk food from homeless shelters when I can't afford food. Homeless shelters in my area never have fresh fruit, vegetables, and meat. I also have PCOS that interferes with losing weight. But PCOS doesn't prevent weight lose. It makes it harder. I don't drink, smoke or do any drugs.

If you look at the Minnesota starvation experiment and patients recovering from anorexia you do see them overshooting their original weight after the restriction ended. Yes that can be contributed to a slowed metabolism but it’s most likely due to the binge eating patterns that occur after extreme restriction. The show simulated an eating disorder
@CharlotteFerrariBreton9 ай бұрын
NO. This show did not simulate an eating disorder. The regime they were submitted to on the show was designed for very fast weight loss. The show lasted 5 months, so they needed to lose the weight in that time frame. An eating disorder is something completely different. Contestants drifting into an eating disorder during or after a show is another story. These people were obese. Its not the same thing to lose 20 or 30 vanity pounds than it is to lose over 100 pounds. Having said that I am curious about that lady who says she has to starve to keep the weight off. I wonder what her concept of starvation is. America has an obesity problem. I live in France, but when I go to America at a restaurant and I order a salad as an appetizer, that salad is enough to feed two or three people. The "Entree" will feed about 6 people. If one person is eating meals like that every day three or four times a day just do that math on the caloric intake and see why the whole country is overweight.

I have lost 220 on 2 years. Over 150 in a year. I have been reading up on metabolism studies. Yes, your metabolism does slow down. What they so not talk about, is that your muscles become more efficient in burning calories as well. Most people who lose weight will have to eat 20-30% less, or exercise that much more to keep the weight off. As far as there metabolism continuing to slide, this is the only study that shows that. From what I have read, there have been some questions about the rmr equations they used pre and post weight loss. I know, that I have to eat about 500 calories a day less than someone my size and physical activity level at this time. I am still in recovery after all the weight loss. Look up Dr. Rudy lebeil. He has done many studies on people who lose weight. Also people on the national weight control registry. Wish me luck to keep it off long term. To all who are trying to lose or maintain, best of luck.

On a low calorie diet the metabolism slows down because it doesn't need to be that fast. You barely have anything to metabolize since you're eating so little. So if you do intermittent fasting or Keto, since you are allowed to eat more food, your metabolism can actually SPEED UP! Your metabolism doesn't just slow down for the rest of your life just because you lose weight, it can recover if you diet correctly. I am speaking out of experience, cutting carbs and fasting brought me down to single digit body fat in 2013 and I never gained the weight back and exercise isn't even needed, I did it with diet alone

The problem is American food is ladled with obscene chemicals and calories..i.e liquid cheese thats poured over everything...strange processed foods...1400 is very possible if you do it right...high fiber...pulses, meats..

.....I'm not so sure about this. A heavier person burns more resting calories (moving or resting) than a smaller person ,so losing the weight means you need less calories. If they are still eating a heavier person's diet then it makes sense that they gained their weight back. What am I missing here?

They didn’t maintain their new weight because they started eating more instead of eating smart.

Look, I am not one to judge but 1,400 or 1,500 is actually enough - if you eat high fiber, high nutrient, high protein things. I do that now, and there are days I eat less than that. Paleo diet is pretty damn filling for one. My guess is, no one was taught nutrition.

All excuses you don't gain weight by eating nothing. My point count calories and portion control. add exercise and it is easy to do. I lost 75 lbs 6 years ago and easily keep it off.

It's not losing the weight, it's HOW you lose the weight. You must preserve your lean muscle mass. Keto diet, weights and intermittent fasting did it for me. I have no idea what my "metabolism" is now. I eat like a king, but not very often. I am comfortably full after nearly every meal I eat. I no longer have lunch comas. Stop fighting your body; eat real food, but only when you need it. Grains and sugar are not real food. Solvent extracted seed oils (corn, canola) are not real food. French fries, chips, crackers and cookies are not food. Eat right and you'll move more.

This is very simple... THEY OVER ATE!!!!!!!. If you eat more calories than what your weight requires than your weight goes up. Metabolism plays a part in the burning of those calories but it is still your job to keep within your daily caloric budget provided by a weight chart. If you notice that you continue to either gain weight or lose weight than you adjust your budget accordingly.

These people used to workout 7 hours a day and they didn't go to work and they had a nutritionist on-site they had to go back into the real world where they work 9 to 5 job took care of their kids so when would there have been time to maintain that weight that they lost on The Biggest Loser

I'm throwing this out as a grossly obese person who has lost a hundred pounds and who and not gained it back but still needs to lose another 80. Why is it that the Holocaust people who came out of the camps just grossly thin I mean just skin and bones why didn't their metabolism stay broken for their whole life? I think it's worth pondering. If I had my own thoughts on it I would say that the ones of us that are fat are addicted to food all those chemicals they put in the food to make food palatable to us we are addicted to it.

I do keto with intermittent fasting and I don't find it remotely difficult to stay under 1400 calories a day. And I have enough energy to do intense physical training 2-3 times a week. Change your fuel source, folks. (PS- that Roth guy eating his pineapple salad really grinds my gears.)

@everydamndayfitness please watch this and respond with your thoughts. I know this is an older video, but this viewpoint still exists for people that are overweight and lose weight at a dramatic rate.
