Leptin is a hormone produced by the bodies fat cells. It exerts its effects in the hypothalamus in the brain (which controls hunger levels). It is used by the body to regulate bodyfat storage and metabolism. Release of leptin is a signal to stop requesting calories (shut off hunger). Constant overeating causes a constant release of leptin. Over time this can and will cause sensitivity issues to leptin (as with anything detected by the body to be in overabundance). If the signal is not well received then the body will continue to remain in storage mode (hunger) and conserve calories (lower BMR).

There is no need for concern when the diet is structured properly. Nutrient timing is actually more beneficial IMO regarding this topic. You are essentially giving the body what it needs when it needs it so that you are partitioning nutrients in a preferable manor towards our goals. We should do as much as we can to optimize nutrient partitioning. This means that we are building muscle and keeping fat low (obviously). We are creating a constant need for calories by training and giving it what it needs for repair and growth AT THAT TIME (which is why carbs are not uniform throughout the day). This predominantly sends our calories towards muscular repair and not towards fat. More muscle = higher BMR = furthering the effect. Lower bodyfat levels will have your leptin levels low and your hunger high (body senses need for fat so does not release the "satiety hormone" aka leptin). CREATING hunger is our goal, but we must at the same time direct nutrients where we want them.

  2. P @ psychedpsych: Have good day people, and I hate texting messages lol
  3. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  4. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  8. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  9. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  10. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  11. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state

  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  16. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  17. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  18. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  19. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though
