A Freind told me that after you are pregnant the fat on your body is harder to loose because it is a special Brown Fat that is stored in your body and that it will take alot longer time to loose it. Is this true? Thankyou in Advance for your answers. (I've got 18 more pounds to go!)

I didn't realize that adults had brown fat. I thought it was something only babies had. It works as a built-in insulation for the baby, and they will loose it as they get older. I have also learned that the best way to shed pounds after pregnancy is breastfeeding???
