metabolic rate even though their body needs to be burning more calories. it makes the whole thing so much harder. >> just don't bother losing weight. >> no. don't say that. i wonder what the effects are if you lost weight at a slower pace. you often will hear doctors recommending that people lose weight more gradually. i would be interested to see what the study found with people that did that. >> we are going from that to the skinny. >> the best dressed of the night at this year's super bowl of fashion. >> and the double elimination last night on "dancing with the stars." that's coming up. >> forget about fashion week. last night was the fashion event of the year. >> some would call it the super bowl of fashion. the theme was fashion in the age of technology making for interesting outfits. topping the list of best dressed beyonce. she arrived last night without jay-z in a form-fitting latex gown. she smokey eye and kept it simple with the hair. i can't help but wonder how hot she must have been. >> it was a cool night in new york. and it is about technolo

that is one of the metabolic risk. another, having to travel the world over to find these really concentrated forms of nitrogen pollution. but let me end by pointing out, sorry again, a slide behind, how the haber-bosch process , again this will be up so do not scramble to write all this down, this week my last point today, transforms the nitrogen cycle. today, industrial nitrogen fix ed through the haber-bosch process, produces about 32 million metric tons. and the intentional cultivation of legumes, we also get nitrogen oxide from bosch, another 25 million metric tons. and combined, and you can do the math here, we are looking at about over 157 million metric tons of nitrogen that is human produced. the natural nitrogen cycle itself only cycles about 110 million metric tons between land and air. so, the human nitrogen cycle has become bigger than the natural one. josh, quick question. we will get the boom back to you. josh: what industrialization would that affect, the changing diet, outdating nightsoil -- with the c

is it possible to change your metabolism as you lose the weight? >> that's a great question.ental biology here. there's a lot of claims about a certain kinds of foods, et cetera, et cetera. the evidence for that scientifically is very limited. so we're really trying to better understand this process so that we can actually help people in the future. right now the kinds of studies that we're doing are really trying to measure this carefully and figure out what is actually responsible for these changes. >> what about the people who have weight loss surgery? do they have the same problem? >> right. so it's a great question. one of the things that we know, people who under go certain kinds of weight loss surgery are remarkably successful in maintaining the weight loss. we did a number of studies comparing those folks to the biggest loser contestants and one of the things we showed, their metabolic rate does slow for the first six months but then it actually recovers back to a normal amount for their new normal body size. whereas if you try to do this with lifestyle alone like the

new research suggests what dropped more than their weight is the metabolism.logy may play more of a role than will power in keeping the weight off. after following the biggest loser contestants for six years after the finale, 13 of 14 regained the weight. four of them are heavier now than before the show. years after it was over their metabolisms continued to slow down. >> the labeling of obese people that try to lose weight and can't keep it off as lacking will power is a terrible thing. >> and inaccurate. >> very inaccurate. >> some believe it removes the self blame that dieters feel and lifts the biggest weight of all off of their shoulders. >> apparently it all has to do with your resting metabolism, determining how many calories you burn. if you burn more by sitting around it helps. >> and they are finding the metabolic rates change when you lose weight. they continue to keep the slow metabolic rate even though their body needs to be burning more calories. it makes the whole thing so much harder. >> just don't bother losing weight. >> no. don't say that.

while the contestants all had normal metabolisms for their size at the start of the show, years afterhey metabolisms continued to slow down. >> the difficulty in keeping weight off reflects biology not a pathological lack of willpower. >> reporter: some suggest this science removes some of the self-blame dieters so often feel, perhaps lifting the biggest weight of all off their shoulders. david? >>. >>> when we come back here tonight, the third-leading cause of death in america revealed tonight. >>> also, america strong. look at this. the dramatic moment caught on camera. the frantic mother and the children left hanging from the window. the plan they came up with to save them. my belly pain and constipation? they keep telling me "drink more water."

while the contestants had normal metabolisms for their size at the start of the show, their metabolismsever recovered, so apparently the body is essentially fighting to put that weight back on. >> the labeling of obese people who try and lose weight and can't keep it off is lacking will power is a terrible thing. >> and inaccurate. >> and very inaccurate. >> while some suggest the science removes at least some of the self-blame that dieters often feel. >>> okay, so now some sports. pittsburgh penguins are up 2-1 in their playoff series against the washington caps following a victory last night. >> as for the nba, we have some highlights now from espn. >>> good morning. it's "sportscenter" from los angeles. stan verrett along with kenny mayne. crazy ending to one of the two nba games on monday night. >> thunder and spurs. if you don't watch a lot of nba this is actually very typical of how games finish up. 13:30 to go. dion waiters trying to inbound. puts his elbow into manu ginobili. the ball is loose, kicked around. ginobili had a shot, passes it up. it's patty mills, that won't go, la

. >> so your area of expertise is the body's metabolism.fter they lost all the weight. they never recovered, and tell us the best way for people to get their metabolic rate to work more efficiently and burn the necessary calories. we're all looking for that solution, of course. we want you to answer that and give it to us. >> i'm not sure i'm going to be able to answer all of that quite immediately. but what i'll tell you is that the key to losing weight and keeping it off is to convince our bodies that they want to lose the weight, that they don't want to have so much fat. getting to the point where you have obesity in the first place comes from the fact that whatever is going on in our environment, and there are lots of things doing that, is telling the body they need to store more fat than necessary. what happens once you decide if you want to lose weight, if you merely try to lose weight by eating less and exercising more, your body doesn't know that it's supposed to lose weight. it knows that you're trying to make it lose weight. it th
