None of you guys have been to Weight Watchers then?
They want you to lose 2 lbs a week on average. For a man and a woman, same height and weight, the man gets to eat more because his metabolism is faster. When they announce weight loss at the meetings, men are markedly faster losers than women.
Note also on "The biggest loser"... in general, men drop higher percentages of weight, although a few women are contenders. I've only seen one woman meet the guy's percentages week after week.
