Kind of? The cells, called adipocytes, primarily store triglycerides and a few other things in a liquid form. When you lose weight that liquid gets squeezed out and used as energy, to build other chemicals your body needs, or peed straight out.

So less a shower and more getting rung out like a sponge.

A lot of people buy the latest Samsung and Apple just because they're new and a status symbol to them. I don't think it's a good metric for week wants what.

I do think many people want thin for various reasons, just doing think it's valid proof.

But then more people might be willing to risk it and ride in aid. Israel definitely doesn't want that. (Not saying it's a good thing just the optics would cause them just as many problems)

The 7 year thing is a myth. Howtown has a very good summary on it. 7 year myth some cells are replaced but how often depends on the cell type, some never get replaced.

When you gain weight your fat cells grow, and when you lose weight they shrink. You don't actually gain and lose fat cells the way people think. However, the stuff in those cells could very well be old. It's a complex system and hard to sum up and I'm only friends with the biology people from college but that's what I understand from them.

You're only allowed to wait that way if you add notes in the margins. Keep it going

I'm starting House of Leaves today.

I don't think I'm ready for this wild ride but only one way to find out.

She's back on another flotilla, the sumud flotilla. Spain and Italy (might have the countries wrong) are sending actual government sanctioned ships to protect them
