The weather in the Abacos with the exception of local patterns like the squall shown above, is pretty much the same as south Florida. The temperature is too. When it's 50 in February in Ft. Lauderdale, it will be close to that in the Abacos. Hurricanes hit the Abacos as often as they hit Florida.
Body Fat Percentage-The lower an individual's body fat percentage, the higher their BMR. This is one reason why men typically have a BMR that is 10-15% higher than that of women. Diet-Starvation diets typically reduce an individual's BMR by as much as 30%.
For example, if your BMR requires you to consume 2,000 calories per day to maintain weight, a diet of 1,500 calories will allow you to cut 500 calories per day from your diet, which is the equivalent to a weight loss of 1 pound per week.
