My question is once this procedure has been completed and say the person really got into some heavy cardio and thus were burning a lot of fat would the body be able to burn the fat that was moved to the buttocks or does it not have the associated blood vessels to enable this?
I’m not even sure if that’s how lipids are metabolised, but I assume it’s through the blood.
I wonder if the bounce back is the body trying to find homeostasis… of sorts. I’ve gone hiking for a week and come back having lost 10 lbs. A month later I’ve gained it back. I know it’s your diet, but gaining it that fast can’t be normal.
You know, I’ve wondered that myself! It’s mind-blowing to me when people say they’re back at where they started. So I suspect it has to be at the genetic level to keep you at a certain weight. Here’s a talk by Dr. Giles Yeo (neuroendocrinologist) making the case for it. (Main point starts at 5 min mark)
Probably at least half of it is water weight, so it might be pretty close to the recommended pound per week
