Journey, Not A Destination

I think I read a few of those leptin articles a while back but I have no recollection of the content. So in a nutshell, how can this leptin be of help or a hinderance to our goals. How can we make this discovery work for us practically speaking? HELP?!&*(^&*%^#)^*(@

You don't need to know anything about leptin. You need to concern yourself with how to get past the results of drops in leptin.

Drops in leptin lead to plateaus.

Not all plateaus. For instance, your plateau Blancita is caused not by leptin, but rather by an inconsistent approach and too high a cal intake.

But suppose your reached a lean level and you were eating the right amount of cals on a consistent basis, yet, the weight was still not coming off. Chances are good that your metabolism has adjusted. The cause of this adjustment can be attributed to a bunch of things, but leptin is the primary 'thing.'

At this stage in the game, you might consider taking a break from your diet. Sometimes this is enough to bust you through a plateau once you start dieting again.

Other times it isn't. And when that's the case, some 'trickier' strategies in terms of dieting programming must be utilized. Think refeeds of carbs, cyclical calories, etc. All these strategies really do is fake out your body into thinking it's really fed so that it will 'let go' of the fat.

That said though, most people on this forum don't need to concern themselves with this. People with too much fat have a ton of leptin. Leptin resides in our fat stores. The more fat you have, the more leptin you have. That's why, majority of the time, it's stupid for an overweight/obese individual to worry about the starvation mode.

I typed this real fast as I'm running out of time before I leave the office.....

But in a nutshell, you don't need to concern yourself with leptin. Bobybuilders have been getting around these plateaus for decades without knowing what leptin really was or even that it existed. They simply figured out how to keep fat loss happening even in the face of the physiological adaptations associated with dieting.

Plus, most of them use drugs and they work magic, lol.

We can certainly talk more about this later if you'd like. Not sure if you have any questions or not. It's nothing new. Same shit you've always seen me say around the forum wrt plateaus.
