My metabolism definitely is slower on propranolol, according to my watch I’m burning not much more than 1,300 kcal even on an active day (even when I was half marathon training), before it was nearer 2,000. My heart rate is slow, resting and also the peak rate is lower than it was. I guess the severity of the effects would depend on type and doseage as well as the individual.
