    By research do you mean reading things online on .com and .org websites?

    "Resetting your metabolism" is not a thing....it's really not that complicated you don't need to overthink it. Count your calories, eat less than you require to maintain...lose weight.

    May be you need to add 1 or 2 cheat days (Change days in week not always weekend) in your diet routine. it will make you metabolism confuse. Your body will not go into starving state and you will keep on loosing with controlled diet..

    Also make sure you do not do same kind of exercise every day. All body needs A change.

    Your metabolism cannot be "confused". It doesn't think, it simply reacts/responds in a given way to what is put into your body.

    I think replenish would more aptly describe what happens.

    Your various metabolic processes cannot be confused.

    However, periodic diet breaks of eating at maintenance (what you're calling "cheat days") are a good idea to bring up certain hormone levels.

    Do they taste good? And are they nutritious?

    Me thinks you need to lighten up. Your post has been taken seriously and addressed. These trolls you refer to are some of the most helpful people on here.

    Cheat days increase your calorie intake, and when you're not losing weight increasing calories is a really bad idea. Besides this, there is no confusing your metabolism, and starvation mode as to ordinary dieters is a myth.

    There is nothing wrong with doing the same exercise every day as long as you enjoy it.

    Well, resetting metabolism is woo...it isn't real, it isn't something you can do. Your biochemistry does not have a reset button you can press by eating X but not Y or eating Z number of calories. So I guess I can gtfo but there isn't really anything to say to this question. No one has "done this" because there is no such thing. The only thing that would tell you it was a thing would be .com websites trying to sell you on something so I'm not sure what you mean by "research" it.

    If you want to lose weight figure out how many calories you maintain at and then eat less than that or increase your activity level to raise the number of calories you require above the amount you intake. That is it. No need to over-complicate it with resets, or detoxes, or crystals or anything else like that.

    I mock it because it is worth mocking, people taking this *kitten* seriously is why is sticks around as long as it does. Understand I am not mocking you, I am mocking the idea of a metabolism "reset"....that doesn't define you personally its just a concept. I mean what would that even mean really? I have absolutely no beef with you personally nor any reason to doubt your sincerity. Metabolism reset on the other hand, that is some dumb b.s. you'd be best off ignoring the ads and whatever product they want to sell you.

    I'm not a troll, I just don't tolerate woo. You want to lose weight, I can help you there...you want to "reset your metabolism"...I have no freaking clue how you would do that. If thats really what you care about I suppose I'll leave. I'm sure some dot.com like Dr.Oz would be happy to explain it and sell you something on the basis of it.

    EDIT: I said the last part as a bit of a joke but then I thought I'd look it up and sure enough, Dr.Oz is all over that, complete with a page full of ads

    http://www.doctoroz.com/article/3-rules-reboot-metabolism

    OP its clickbait tied to a sales-pitch on websites covered with ads, thats it. Its hollow...not going to help you. It puts on a smile and tries to sell you *kitten*. I'm not smiling but I'm not trying to sell you *kitten* either.

    That's good, but if you even kind of half believe in the concept you may falter...just remember that nothing apart from building / losing muscle, medical conditions associated with thyroid/hormones is going to drastically affect your base metabolism

    But you can affect your TDEE by increasing activity
