that was an interesting article, and i agree with mike and KD, 99.99% of it is head work.
I have had people ask me 'when you eat again will you regain all
your/the weight, like
the weight is something that is mine, hovering out there in space waiting to find me again! lol.
I dont think of it as
my weight anymore, I am 38lbs lighter, and that 38lb does not belong to me anymore! it has passed on! it was used to help me live for those days i was on tfr.
if anything, thinking of it like that, it was used 'usefully' so its not a 'loss' or something to be scared of, it was something that my body stored for future use, and has used it.
I dont need to store more now, so although my bodies natural reaction may be to want to store some energy for later, i know that it is not necessary.
we, as humans, have evolved on more quickly than the natural survival impulses of our bodies. as long as we keep that in mind, perhaps keeping out energy balance, balanced will be easier.
deep answer for what was going to be a quick 'liked the article' response!
