Ok, here is one last post about fat cells with a great quote! There is hope for us who have been overweight most of our lives!

Slimming Down Always an Option

So does this mean that every overweight dieter should throw out their jogging shoes and diet books? Not so, experts overwhelmingly say.

Although experts said that the more fat cells you accumulate in childhood the harder it is to remain lean and fit in adulthood, all diet experts agree that just because you may develop more fat cells in childhood does not mean that you are stuck being overweight your whole life.

"I hope people don't think that they're doomed if they were overweight in childhood," said Keith Ayoob, associate professor in the department of pediatrics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. "A 'typical' weight may not be appropriate for everyone. Go for a better weight and one that you can maintain. Even a 10 percent reduction [in weight] will improve your health risk."

Moreover, experts urged that those concerned about their weight should focus on obesity prevention for the future rather than a crash diet for today.

That was a great idea, shoerider! I definitely prefer knowing how my body deals with these things. It would help for everyone to read this so they can have an idea of how it all works, and that way form a better regimen for themselves.
You were right about that ending line!
