π₯Metabolic Rate Lowers With Low Calorie Diets
ββββββββββββββββββββββ
Studies show that as an individual lowers their caloric intake, the body adapts by lowering resting metabolismπ₯ . The body becomes more efficient in utilizing the reduction of calories it receives to preserve fat loss. A lower π₯metabolism is exactly what you do not want when youβre trying to lose weight!
ββ
This adaptation is like what the body does with exercise. When you do a certain activity over and over, muscles remember the activity and start doing them more efficiently. Think of your metabolismπ₯ as a muscle. If you eat too few calories, your metabolismπ₯ adapts by slowing down.
ββ
While a reduction in calories may initially yield weight loss, itβs only a matter of time before you reach a plateau and the scale stops going down.
ββ
A diet should never be linear, that's what alot those 10 week Transformation packages with diet plans do, you will lose WEIGHT (Fat/Muscle) then eventually everything STOPS!! Then what??? Stay low for too long as risk metabolic damage, then you will put all that weight back on!!!
Fat loss should be long term not a short term quick fix
