[QUOTE="Andy_Warlow, post: 2365947, member: 524382"] Their can be serval factors involved here. As you loss weight, you body need less calories to do it what you use to do. Say you weight 100 kg, your body has to move 100 kg around. But if lost say 20 kg, you weigh 20 percent less. There fore your body doesn't need the same amount of calories to move as you 20kg lighter. Also you body will have built muscle to move at 100kg. So at 80 kg your muscle will not need the same amount of energy as well. This is why most diets even out and weight re gain happen. Resistant training works wonders with this as you'll build muscle but your body will need the extra cals to repair and grow the muscles. Also this will help wonders with blood glucose and insulin resistance. Also your body is clever as it has an ideal weight it want to be and does what it can to remain there. So this is the pitfall of any eating plan style even low carb. I find for me personally a 2 day fast once a month. Also helps almost like a reset. [/QUOTE]
