- orwin 2y agoIf weight return, yes. Usually, at least with men, visceral fat storage is 'filled' first, then it goes to the closest storage available (abdominal, thighs, boobs, then face. If it reach your face, you're at least medically obese).

- Leynos 2y agoNevermind. Just saw another comment pointing out that this is unrelated. My mistake.
- glp1guide 2y agoTIL, thanks for this insight -- where did you find this rule of thumb?
- orwin 2y agoI don't remember. I was obese and started having some joint issues and visage fat, so i bought a scale, calculated my BMI, found roughly 34, then tried and failed my first attempt at calories limitations. Then I really prepared for a true diet, spend months informing myself, got used to hunger by fasting for 5 days, and got my weight under control. It's during that time that I learned about that. It might have been on a HAES forum before they went crazy (circa 2017 it was mostly support (and a dating site tbh), and a view of 'if you don't have health issues, do not hurt yourself trying to loose weight'. Now, from a more external POV, it seems it changed toward 'it's okay even if your health struggle')
