In a few words, this thread exposes the "Weight Loss Wall."
Generally, it is rightfully claimed that there is a calorie math to loosing weight, reduce calorie intake and burn calories so that your static or sedentary calorie balance point is negative. It does work, up to a point.
Why does it fail? What is the weigh loss wall? Suddenly, it gets harder and harder to loose weight. Why?
Fat cells live for roughly 8 years. Let me repeat that ... Fat cells live for roughly 8 years.
The longevity of fat cells means that once you burn their fat content, they hang around, waiting for the day when they can refill. If you have been overweight, it will be hard to stay reduced for this very reason.
Understand, you don't have to weight 8 years for fat cells to start dying from a diet. No. A certain number die every day. But it's relatively insignificant.
So how does one breach that wall? Some authorities claim that it cannot be done.
Logic suggests that if one does not want to wait for fat cell natural death, can you kill the little buggars? The answer is of course - yes. But how?
And the answer to that is ... what you eat.
It's not how much or how little or how much exercise and activity you get. You can starve a fat cell and it will not die. It'll just go dormant. You can burn up it's reserve through activity and it will not die. But research has revealed that you can kill a fat cell. You do it by what you eat. It's the what, not how much.
I'll let you all think on that for a while.
