CLEVELAND CLINIC - Anyone who has tried to lose a substantial amount of weight knows that the true challenge often lies in keeping those shed pounds from creeping back on. According to Dr. Bartolome Burguera cf Cleveland Clinic, there are several factors that impact a person's ability to keep weight off for good.
One of the main factors is a person's basic metabolic rate, or how many calories the body burns while at rest. "Because you start losing weight and the basic metabolic rate goes down from 2,000 to 1,600, so unless you burn 400 calories extra exercising or you eat 400 calories less, you will not be able to continue to lose weight," Dr. Burguera says.
