    If you go off it you’ll regain 70% of the weight in a year based on early studies.

    But it’s unclear how long the users had been on it to begin with. It can take years for your body to actually get rid of the fat cells that you emptied while losing weight, for example.

      I’ve not seen anything that says fat cells ever go away, could you provide a source for this? I’ve always been under the impression that once they are there you can only remove them via liposuction or surgery. Thanks

        You know: I thought I had a link for this but I don’t.

        Striking through that part of the comment.

        I know you have a turnover rate of 10% of your fat cells per year and can find corroboration.
