Plus, there is relatively little variation between all humans in their resting metabolism. We're talking 600 calories from the slowest metabolisms to the fastest.
i hear the metabolism also stays the same regardless of weight. you actually need a deficit compared to your baseline.
anedoctally though, my parner eats much less than me, but is heavier somehow.
Completely anecdotal, but I have to assume that is incorrect, or that I have a fundamental misunderstanding. I have done tests and found that my body processes(in one hole->out another) food in about an hour. Which is absolutely insane and results in most of my evacuate being unprocessed. I've read that for other people in similar tests, they tend to average around 12 hours. Im guessing that means my understanding of what contitutes metabolism is incorrect?
You're confusing solid food in my mouth with calories ingested.
If for whatever physiological reason your claim is correct, and your digestive system is indeed so fast food goes through unprocessed, you didn't actually eat. You've eaten in the social, pleasurable or psychological sense, but these are not ingested calories, and therefore also completely irrelevant to your metabolism or diet.
If you could take a 1000 calorie burguer, cover it in plastic, swallow it and have it pass through intact... You just ingested zero calories. So you can't later say "oh I regularly eat 1000 calories per meal and lose weight, but my partner chews a 300 calorie steak and gains weight!"
If you see what I mean.
Yeah, fair. The difficulty comes in because i've never been diagnosed with any digestive issues somehow, so historically ive always just attributed it to the "fast metabolism" everyone tells me about. Honestly this conversation is about the first time ive ever put that sort of thought into it
