    I learned something new! We can increase the number of fat cells in our body, but never decrease the number, just the size!

    I didn't know that before!

    What I loved most about this article is how they emphasize the diet, small portions and good food choices, also how it explains the way the body loses fat evenly

    A lot of people didn't realize this ... it's why it drives me nuts when people post on here that you can remove cellulite w/out surgery/lipo. It's misleading. You can make those fat cells smaller and even flatten them out if you are super dedicated, but they are still there and sadly, they are usually the first cells to fill back up when someone who has had success falls off the "healthier lifestyle wagon".
