First, they said you get fat if your partner/lover/roommate/dog/cat/turtle/lizard/whatever-lives-with-you tends to attract adipose. Today, there's a report saying that to lose weight, you must work in teams. Hang on a minute. So, if you start losing weight, will your whatever-lives-with-you will too, or will let you? Fat chance!
What if you were working out in a team that is industrially trying to lose weight, and after a hard day's blood, sweat and tears, you come home to your live-with-you, who is unabashedly soliciting the fat monster? I suppose you will have to get your live-with-you to join your weight loss programme, perhaps it would work then. You two can lose and gain and lose and gain in an eternal cycle, like your relationship — up and down.
Adipose, as defined by science (all right, by Wiki), is a tissue that acts as a "fat depot (I just love the sound of this)" and is composed of 80% fat. Basically, this tissue is supposed to store fat. The more fat you eat, the happier your adipose is, and it shows in your waist line. Also, an excess of certain nutrients is converted into this food stock for emergencies your body might face.
Adipose constitutes your internal make-up. Some have more of it, some less; some say it runs in the family. If your ancestors were generously endowed with adipose, chances are you will inherit that lipid legacy. So, to avoid that legacy from manifesting itself and ruining your chances of sporting a six-pack, you will avoid partners who could spell trouble with big FAT. You will discriminate, and you will limit your chances at having a life.
What if you were just living with yourself, you enrolled with dedicated teammates to shed extra pounds? You came home, looked yourself in the mirror and voila! Adipose was back into your life, pumping your lipido? Over time, you will lose your teammates, who will accuse you of slacking while they are doing their best. In such a situation, team dynamics don't look very healthy.
I think fat is just that... fat. You have it, you lose it, it comes back, you lose it again. Why bother if external factors sound contradictory. You can love yourself and love your fat, too. Just don't pamper it too much, that's all. Weight loss teams, weight gain partners... researchers will not let you live in peace with your lipid love.
