Here's what losing weight does to your body and brain.
00:07
During the first week, you may find it easy to lose weight by simply switching to a healthier
00:11
diet.
00:12
But as your metabolism adjusts, you won't burn as many calories as you used to, so losing
00:17
additional weight will become harder.
00:20
Making matters worse, as the fat melts away, you'll start to experience an increase in
00:25
appetite.
00:27
After a meal, fat cells release a hormone called leptin into the bloodstream.
00:32
This surge in leptin levels signals to your brain you're full and should stop eating.
00:37
But with less overall fat, people who lose weight show a measurable dip in leptin.
00:43
Brain scans of obese patients who had lost 10% of their body weight revealed less leptin
00:49
leads to increased activity in regions of the brain that control our desire to eat.
00:55
The end result isn't just an increased appetite, but an even stronger urge to eat
00:59
fatty, high-calorie foods, because your brain is trying to restore the body's leptin levels
01:05
to normal.
01:06
However, fighting that early impulse to gorge on pizza and donuts is worth it in the long
01:11
run.
01:12
Besides the decreased risk of heart disease, hypertension, high cholesterol, and type 2
01:18
diabetes, scientists studying overweight people discovered that losing just one pound of body
01:23
weight reduces four pounds of pressure on knee joints.
01:27
Losing excess weight also reduces strain on the blood vessels, increases blood flow to
01:32
the brain, and boosts overall brain function.
01:36
Several studies have shown that people who underwent weight loss surgery saw an improvement
01:41
in memory, concentration, and problem-solving skills in as soon as three months.
01:47
Plus, brain scans indicate that people who lost weight and kept it off for nine months
01:52
reacted differently when shown images of high-calorie foods than before they lost the weight.
01:57
The brain regions that process reward, motivation, and taste didn't react as strongly, whereas
02:03
the areas that promote overall self-control had a boost in activity.
02:08
So fighting those cravings early on might make them easier to control later.
02:13
Turns out, like anything else, losing weight can get easier with practice.
