I cant tell you how many times I have read or heard this lately (and steadily over the last 30 years).

Is there some truth in this statement ? It seems like a relatively commonly held belief. Is it merely based on guys have more muscle and higher Basal Metabolic Rates ?

I've been telling women to not be discouraged and "he or she that cuts the carbs the best wins" nevermind chromosomes. I say they are more determined than their husbands and that's why they'll lose lots of weight.

I'm interested in hearing what people think on this topic vs. researching myself (I'm busy researching another topic).

Thoughts ?


Please weigh in on the topic
