THE BETA SWITCH: THE NEW STUBBORN FAT SOLUTION FOR WOMEN
When we lose body fat, the reverse happens. Unfortunately, that’s not in the
order we would like! Given that it is most dangerous to store fat around our
organs, our bodies will naturally do what is best for us, which is to use the stored
fat there first and foremost.
When you first start losing fat, you’ll feel better, but you may not see physical
changes right away.
The changes ARE happening, but they start from the inside first!
As fat accumulates (and there is more and more of it), it becomes harder and
firmer because there is less circulation to these parts of the body. That’s also why
the surface of the skin on the fatter parts of our bodies feels colder to touch.
When your fat begins to melt away, your blood will begin circulating to these
areas again and ‘loosening’ up the fatty deposits. This may make you feel ‘softer’
and ‘squishier’ in these areas…and you may even think these areas feel fatter and
look worse. I call it the ‘squishy fat’ stage.
Don’t be alarmed! It’s a GOOD sign that the fatty deposits are shifting. With time,
you’ll continue to lose more and more of these fat cells and be on the way to
beautiful, firm, smooth legs (or insert your own particular troublesome area).
That same process is part of why women sometimes feel that when they train
with weights they are getting ‘bigger’ instead of leaner. Don’t buy into the
misconception that weight training will make you bulky!
It may feel this way initially because you are adding beautifully ‘toned’ lean
muscle tissue underneath the layers of fat. Remember, you are losing fat from
your internal organs first, but once you start losing it from under your skin, your
beautifully firm and sculpted body will be revealed! And then the muscle that you
have will look sexy and sleek.
The moral of the story? Be patient, Grasshopper; be patient!
Although I’ve been talking about cellulite, some of you may have ‘trouble areas
without the cellulite. We call that stubborn fat. Let’s take a closer look at it.
