I have a question. Does men loose weight faster than women? Many couples I have seen and known trying to loose weight I see that men lost it quickly than women. Of at the end it depends on CICO age. Does it also depend on gender how fast you loose weight ?

    In the end it just comes down to work and effort. (Some) guys have a few advantages I suppose (like an easier time building muscle, and the ability to get to a lower body fat %, higher TDEE etc), but I think those are a bit overrated and vary drastically between individuals.

    For what it's worth, I'm losing way faster than my boyfriend is right now, despite being closer to my goal.

    How fast you lose weight depends on your calorie deficit.
