Why wouldn't you lose weight with low calorie intake and high calorie output?

At the beginning of your diet, when you lower your calorie intake and increase your exercise calorie burn, it is a "shock" to your system. Your body responds to this by burning fat and thus, you lose weight. However, as time goes on, your body adapts to the "shock" and makes adjustments (such as lowering your metabolism), that stop your weight loss entirely. This is why MOST diets fail! The recent "high-tech" approach to solving this problem and producing a diet plan that causes you to lose weight for a LONG time, is what is called "calorie shifting".
