[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not sure I understand the question. It seems to suggest that your body naturally hovers around a certain weight regardless of what you are doing to or with your body. But it always matters what you are doing to or with your body.[/quote] There is a theory that your body prefers being a certain weight and will do lots of things (increased fidgeting to burn calories or decreased fidgeting to gain weight, increased hunger signals to gain weight, etc.) to maintain it. Not sure how true that is but that is the theory. What is known is that fat cells make you hungry. Gaining weight makes fat cells increase but losing weight only shrinks them. It doesn't get rid of them. So a person who used to be 160 lbs but is now 120 lbs would feel hungrier than a person who was always 120 lbs. [/quote]
