Hmmm... They say it’s triggered by cold, huh? I wonder if I go stand outside for 10 mins. a day up here in Northern Wisconsin without my coat on if I can develop some brown fat that way? (My guess is that I’d only end up with black fingers, toes, ears and nose! It was -15 the other day! LOL)
Another hmmm... if cold triggers this “good fat” to be produced then why are so many of us up here in Wisconsin, on average, so heavy? (Oh, yeah... I guess it could be the beer, and cheese, and beef, eh! LOL)
Well, anyway, I’ll be sure to let you know if I figure out a way to make it work! I promised my doctor to start walking more though, so maybe if I walk in the cold it will be like walking twice or something!?! LOL
Actually, there was some guy who sat in cold(ish) water every day for 20 minutes or so and did lose weight, but I don’t know how many people could stand to do that. AND, it might not work for everyone, so I’m not tellin my fellow Freepers to go jump in a cold bath! ;-)
