hey guys. i just wanted everyone to know that i was watching educational t.v. and i came accross some information. you know how you always want to eat everything when you're dieting? yeah- i found out it's not a mental thing- it's physical. when you start to lose weight rapidly you body starts producing more of the hunger hormone to defend it's weight. it's shown that our bodies want to hold on to excess weight more than it wants to lose it- even if it's harmful. this is why you have to excersize- it's really difficult to lose it all by diet because the less you eat the more hunger hormone you produce. this means that you have to take it slow and change your lifestyle or you WILL gain back the weight....
