    Default Quick diet question....

    Me and a friend have been havin a mini debate about losing weight, she says that the more weight u have to lose the quicker u lose it, where i think its all down to your metabolism. Who's right?

    The thing is, you're both right. Bigger people have higher metabolic rates simply by virtue of their weight. The more weight you're carrying, the more calories your body burns sustaining it, basically. The metabolic rate drops as weight does, though, so while initial weight might come off very quickly for those who are significantly overweight, that pace will not be sustained all the way to a normal weight.
