The miracle of our bodies is that they come with their own giant rechargeable batteries.
You may know of these batteries as “fat cells”.
This is where we store energy for use later.
Brilliant design.
The only issue is, in order for these batteries to work optimally, they need to be drained every once-in-a-while.
If you don’t drain them, they start to cause problems (just like real batteries).
The best way to drain them?
Stop filling them ALL THE TIME.
Use them up a bit…
Sure, you might end up filling them up again…
But that’s how they were designed to work.
store a little burn a little.
NOT
STORE EVERYTHING.
Nobody needs to carry around 80,000 Calories worth of stored energy, but that’s what 50-ish pounds of body fat is…
Don’t be afraid to use the energy you already have (body fat) instead of going out and getting more (food).
A break from eating every once in a while, it does a body good.
