Yes because it takes more energy to move the body around cause it weighs more. However, as that person becomes smaller, the body will not take as many calories.

It depends on BMI ( Body Mass Index ) The more LEAN tissue ( muscle ) you have.the more calories you burn ( higher metabolism )Muscle weighs more than fat.so yes..it is true.Unless the heavier person's BMI contains a Lower % of Muscle than the lighter person.

of course, they need more energy to life their weight, if you hold 2-lbs of weights, ull burn more too.. but they also have more strain on their heart. which is not good.

Yes, simply because the larger person is moving more weight. If you walked carrying 200 lbs extra you'd burn more calories too.

If you look at the list of activities on the list below you'll see how many more calories 190 lb person burns over a 130 lb person.
