[QUOTE="BigBamBoo, post: 124283, member: 18654"] Hello. Interesting theory. Not sure if it will help/work. But there are lots of folks here that know way more than I do and will likely chime in. That being said. From my understanding of weight loss, is that fat cells actually just shrink. When you lose weight, your fat cells are “losing weight” weight but not actually leaving your body. Now if you were stranded on a dessert island and were actually starving, then your body may “eat” the fat cells...along with your muscles. This is why so many people who lose weight end up gaining it back later on. The only way to actually get rid of the fat cells is via liposuction/surgery. And even that only gives you localized removal of the fat cells. And when you gain weight, it will go to the areas where there is still fat cells. So if you had abdominal lipo, the weight will be gained in your butt, thighs, chest, face, etc. Yes, not probably what you wanted to hear. But I know for myself, I like having information and understanding of the why of things. Good luck on your journey. Sounds like you have made some great gains. From your numbers, it would be safe to say you could benefit from TRT. Do you know your SHBG number? Your E2 is not that high. For me, AI is a no go. Even on a very low dose, it tried to kill me. So I adjusted my dosing schedule to lower my E2. Some folks can tolerate AI....others...not so much. [/QUOTE]
