>>510066637Here's the thing about that buddy. That's only a temporary alleviation. When people go on strict dieting regiments and fasting schedules, fat cells are *depleted*, but they are not *removed*. So while the fat cells turn empty, causing you to lose weight, as soon as you get to your comfortable weight and resume a normal eating habit, those fat cells will almost instantly refill and you will balloon back up in a matter of weeks or a couple months.
That's the dirty secret of dieting that nobody talks about. To actually truly get rid of those fat cells entirely so that they can't be filled back up is to go on a severe fasting regiment where the body must necessarily resort to cannibalizing the cells themselves also. Fat cells grow and are produced by the body when excess energy is taken in. But when those fat cells are already built, they are stored, like empty shelves just waiting to be restocked. You need to tear down those shelves entirely either through prolonged fasting, or just flat out liposuction.
I've yo-yo'd multiple times in my life now, the lowest I'd ever gotten being about 167 at 6'0. As soon as I went back to eating 'normally' (which would be 2 meals a day, lunch and dinner), I'd notice I'd be putting on weight very quickly once more.
I aim to rid myself of the fat stores AND the cells entirely. Not just the stores.
