| Lose Weight Like a Guy Men are bigger losers than women; here's why, and what you can do to use that info to your advantage. by Denise Foley, Prevention magazine Men's bigger muscle mass-in fact, their bigger-ness overall-helps them burn 30% more calories than we do, says nutritionist Cynthia Sass, R.D., coauthor of Your Diet Is Driving Me Crazy. They have other advantages, too: For one, their hormones don't leave them waterlogged-and heavier-one week a month. We generally have more body fat and are biologically more inclined to store it (possibly to nourish those dozen babies nature wants us to have). ...But all is not, ahem, lost. We women may never have the biological or psychological weight loss advantages men enjoy, but we are clever enough to learn new tricks. In other words, if there's no way to beat them at the dieting game, we might as well join them. Here are five guy habits that can help you lose weight-and keep it off. Happily, none of them involves testosterone. |

With that aside, I do believe it is easier for men to lose weight than women. If anyone has seen the TV Show here in the US called The Biggest Loser, you will remember how much weight the guys lost in comparison to the girls; even though they were on the same program.
Personally speaking, I lost weight simply by switching from regular soda to diet soda, and I know a lot of women who are jealous of that.

Men & Women Lose Weight Differently Health & Special Psychology
My team at work and I are having a "biggest loser" contest and my wife has decided to join in. I am finding that I am losing weight much faster than she is and with less drastic measures to do so. She is getting frustrated, but I am encouraging her (and fibbing about my lose amount) so that she will continue to push like I am. I never knew it was really harder for women to lose weight.
