For years, the weight loss mantra has been, “eat less, exercise more.” Yet, the research shows that 90% of the people who lose weight in this manner simply gain it back. Why is this so?
Well, for starters, appetite, metabolism and mood are all controlled by messenger chemicals in the body. When you restrict calories, the cells of the body assume that there is a “famine” going on. In response, cells send chemical messengers that reduce metabolism (the rate at which you burn calories). This conserves the body’s energy during the “famine.”
Because your metabolism is lower, your energy is reduced, so you become less physically active. Your mood also changes because you feel deprived, so your body is attracted to foods that enhance mood—particularly carbohydrates. When food is available, other chemical messengers are released to stimulate the appetite and program the body to store energy (fat) in preparation for the next famine. Thus, a vicious cycle of “feast” and “famine” ensues.
