For a majority of people, trying to lose weight is like pulling teeth. It’s inconvenient, costly, and difficult, yet the results are not guaranteed.
Most diets go by the same thread: eat less, exercise more. However, "Why We Get Fat and What To Do About It" author Gary Taubes tells us that this is a paradox because the more intensive the exercise, the hungrier you get.
As a result, you also tend to consume more calories, as your body needs to compensate for the energy and water you lose.
The same concept applies with basal metabolic rate (BMR), or the rate by which your body burns calories.
