But if she lives very actively, rides her bike to work instead of her car and goes to sports three times a week, she can eat a few calories more and still keep her desired weight. Although the Harris Benedict formula is suitable for a rough estimate of the basic turnover, it does not contain the whole truth.
How else can it be explained that some people with the same height, age and calorie intake gain or lose weight faster than others? Right, metabolism plays a role. As we have already seen, a slow metabolism means that the body consumes little energy even at rest. This means that the basal metabolic rate will decrease. If we eat additional calories, these are immediately stored as fat pads. A well-functioning metabolism, on the other hand, burns more energy even in basal metabolic rate, so they almost lose energy on their own, without having to constantly torture themselves through starvation cures or hours on the treadmill.
The JoJo effect - and why it exists
But how can I boost my metabolism so that my body consumes more energy? The bad news first: a single diet over a short period of time is not enough in most cases. Radical starvation cures signal to the body that bad times are imminent, radical calorie reduction reduces energy consumption and slows down metabolism.
So if we eat normally again after a week or two of slimming, the fat pads quickly return - the dreaded yo-yo effect. The good news, however, is that a permanent change in diet and lifestyle is not so difficult and does not require as much sacrifice as two weeks of fasting. If you generally pay attention to the right diet and exercise sufficiently, it may also be a piece of cream cake or a portion of French fries - your metabolism will then be ready.
