Gaining

Agreed with oncegainer's post....I myself noticed the lost weight comes back much faster and a lot softer than the initial gain not only on myself but my wife as well.

One reason maybe that when you lose weight, your fat cells merely shrink, but never go away. When you put weight back on, those cells swell back up very quickly, before new fat cells are created. I maybe off on this, but I think it is medically true.
