Default Conversation I imagine between my metabolism and my fat cells

So Metabolism sees a calorie defiict and goes knocking on the fat cell doors. The conversation with the cells on the first floors of the "fat hotel" goes something like this:

M - "Hey, send out some of that stored energy, we've got a deficit here."

FC - "No trouble, didn't you notice we have a revolving door here? Take what you need, we know you'll be giving it back."

But Metabolism doesn't give anything back, Cary sticks with her plan. Now Metabolsim has to climb up a few flights to the next floors of the hotel:

M - "Hey, send out some of that stored energy, we've got a deficit here."

FC - " Well, it will take a while, you haven't asked for a donation in so many years that we put the extra in the back. Go ask the neighbors while we sort out what we can give you and check back later"

So it takes a little longer to empty out these fat cells, but eventually Metabolism becomes such a pest that they let that fat go. But STILL Cary sticks to her plan. Now Metabolism is climbing to the upper floors:

M - "Hey, send out some of that stored energy, we've got a deficit here."

FC - "Zzzzz" (These are the Rip Van Winkle of fat cells, haven't been bothered in 20 years).

M - "Hey, I'm not kidding, I need that energy!"

FC - "(yawning) Who are you and why should we give you our stuff?"

I think right now they're negotiating...

But Cary WILL be sticking to her plan.

Thanks guys. Now that my workouts last for 60 minutes at a time, my brain finds ways to keep me amused.

I love it! That was not only humorous, but also a good perspective of the slowing of weight loss after the initial woosh loosing at the beginning.
