Does having an increased metabolism increase weight loss, when not eating food?

Derek asked:


Does having an increased metabolism increase weight-loss or just, how many calories you take from food. Tonight I’m done eating, I’ve had my day’s calories, and I’m going to drink a lot of caffeine tonight so my metabolism will speed up. I want to know will I lose more weight simply because my metabolism is faster, even though I’m not eating anything?

    nope. and if you get a very slight metabolic advantage by drinking a lot of coffee, it is so very very slight that it will burn off nothing.

    a faster metabolic rate does burn calories at a faster rate. muscle is metabolically active tissue. the more muscle mass you have, the faster your metabolism.

    We can not know for sure. We are all different. What is known, is that the body will go into starvation mode when you don’t eat, and conserve fats, lipids & calories, for a period of abstinence from food.

    Like a chipmunk, but they store their food ‘outside’ of the body in a hole, not on their belly. Your body reacts and says “Hey I gotta save this, I’m not being fed.”

    Three steps that have really helped me are dieting, exercising, and the correct weight loss supplement for losing weight. Focus on those three things and you will lose weight considerably. I exercise 30 mins a day along with taking Proactol, a natural weight loss supplement that I saved money on at theweightlossplace.com

    Good luck and stay focused = )
