If we're cold, like we are right now, we shiver.
If we are hot, then we will sweat, right?
So we keep it there.
It turns out our body does the exact same thing with fat.
It has this amount of fat in mind.
And for Oprah, that amount of fat somehow equates to about 211 pounds.
So what does that mean?
When Oprah
diets, when she exercises, when she does all the things, all the things, what happens is her appetite increases.
Her appetite increases and her body says, eat more and burn less.
Be more efficient with the energy that you have.
In the same way, what our body does is actually when we gain weight, it does the opposite.
It turns down our appetite and it helps us burn more.
But the way that we are built is to actually always want more.
And the reason why we always want more and why our body doesn't think that it has enough is because we are built for survival.
And so we don't want to starve.
So every time Oprah tried to lose weight, her body was like, you're starving.
You better go eat something else.
You better conserve your energy.
Do not lose that weight.
