[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here; haven't read other replies, but wanted to say, that [b]a few years ago I went with my SIL to a class to keep her license current. [/b]One thing I learned is that fat cells have a memory of about 3 months. So they will lose weight, then hang on to weight--I think they start hanging on at 10% loss. They hang on for the three months, then they "reset" and the current weight becomes the base weight and they lose again. I might not be explaining it very well, but bottom line is, this is why people plateau, and if you expect and tolerate the plateaus, then you can keep going with the weight loss. The trick is to wait them out! If the caloric consumption, the excersise level, and sleep levels are right, it will be just a matter of time.[/quote] Is this what they told you at the DMV? [/quote]
