Yeah i found the fat cell info interesting like those who are fat kids are normally fat adults, which i knew but thought it was more related to behaviour and exercise than to the amount of fat cells in the body. I thought the behaviour of the children as young as 3,4,5 was interesting too.
My partner is one of those people who has no interest in food. He's slim and always a constant weight. He always says if food was a tablet he could take once a day then he'd be happy. He has a highly physical labouring job and doesn't eat anything during the day then comes home and just eats a normal evening meal mostly. Sometimes though he will come home and eat breakfast lunch and dinner in one sitting (like 6 weatbix with fruit then PB sangas then meat and three vege!!! all in an hour or so)....i guess he needs to top up the reserves every few days. I wish we could swap half of our habits each and we'd be set and healthy....lol!
So i wonder when they will be able to isolate and modify that gene they mentioned..... ;)
