Fat Loss Lie #1: You have to starve yourself to get a lean body Here Are Some of the Consequences of Starvation Mode: 1. Your fat cells sound the alarm and release less leptin. Leptin is the anti-starvation hormone that tells your brain you are well fed with plenty of reserve energy. When leptin goes down, fat-burning goes down. 2. Your appetite rages out of control. Your brain flips on the appetite switch and hunger hormones increase. You become a ravenous food-seeking machine. 3. Your body releases fewer fat-releasing and fat-burning enzymes such as hormone sensitive lipase and lipoprotein lipase and your body doesnt oxidize fat for fuel as efficiently as normal. 4. You lose muscle. Maintaining muscle requires energy. Extreme diets are like an energy crisis, so excess muscle becomes expendable and you cannibalize your own lean tissue. 5. Your metabolism slows down. Levels of T3, the active form of thyroid, fall, decreasing your metabolic rate, so you burn fewer calories each day. Bottom line: Its hormonally, metabolically and psychologically impossible to achieve permanent fat loss by starving yourself.
