Weight loss question; why do some lose quicker and more than others? My wife and I have been following a points weight loss program like Weight Watchers but not their actual system. It%26#039;s slightly different because we are following the %26quot;Wendie%26quot; plan. Basically we stay within the points range set down for our weight but vary it from day to day. Some days are very low, at the bottom of the range. Others are high, at the upper range. One day a week is very high, about 10 points over the high point range. Overall we stay about 10 points under the total points alotted for a single week. We have been on the plan since June 18th and other than an additional point here or there we have both been true to the points plan. The problem is that I have lost 19-1/2 pounds and she lost only 4. We both work out but in different ways. She does much more cadio i.e. biking, riding a Gazelle machine, and walking/ running with the kids. I do very little cadio, 60 to 90 minutes a week, work out with weights and sit in a steam room.
Why am I having so much more success?

Metobolism buddy.
I%26#039;m a bodybuilder %26amp; see it in gym%26#039;s all the time. A couple go in %26amp; the guy does his workout and is on the cardio equip while the girl is stll doing some light weights. Then the guy usually gets his shower %26amp; talks while the girl spends at lease 20 more min%26#039;s than him on cardio. So it%26#039;s no ones fault really. Guys tend to lose quicker as our metobolism is quicker %26amp; higher. We do work and workout at a higher intensity level than women. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolism
