Lots of diets promise you the moon in terms of quick weight loss, so we talked to experts in nutrition and obesity to find out what's safe and reasonable.
Dr. Apovian works with obese people aiming to lose 5 percent of their body weight in three months, not 10 pounds in a week, she says. But even if you’re just looking to undo the fallout from too many fun nights out, and you cut back majorly on calories, your body will similarly think you’re starving.
that various bodily systems then kick in to slow your calorie burn, and certain hormones start cranking to up your appetite, among other things.How much you lose depends, too, on what you’ve been eating up until then. If you’re a fast food fan or scarf a lot of processed carbs, and then you cut them all out, you’ll see a big sexy needle swing on the scale—say, 5 pounds in the first week—which is mostly the water your body was retaining.
Besides, you don’t only lose fat when you drop pounds quickly—you lose muscle, the very muscle that you need to burn calories; that means your metabolism will slow and the weight will pile back on and then some—even if you keep restricting your caloric intake, she says.For non-obese people who want to drop a few pounds for cosmetic reasons, “I wouldn’t focus on the scale,” says Dr. Apovian.
