That's kind of how the hypothalamus works.

It measures the amount of body fat that you carry via a hormone called leptin, which

is secreted by your fat tissue in proportion to its size.

So it gets in your circulation and it goes to the brain.

Your brain says, aha, you have, you know, however much body fat on your body.

The key thing is your brain really is looking for a certain level there.

Your brain is accustomed to a certain level and that's the level it wants you to have.

And typically that's the level that you're currently at unless you've specifically been

trying to lose weight lately.

And then what happens is if that signal goes down and the way that signal goes down is

if you are losing body fat or and or if you're eating fewer calories, that signal goes

down and your brain says, hold on, wait a minute, we're losing fat here and I really

don't like this.

Welcome to the legendary life podcast where it's all about taking control of your health,

losing fat, transforming your body and living the life you deserve with celebrity fitness

Big announcement for today, we decided to take a summer break.

That way the legendary life team can spend some time with their loved ones and recharge.
