I think its less about being lean and more so about PUFAs. Absolutely the better hormonal environment from being lean makes you burn up calories more rapidly but I think the large saturated fat intake I had in the absence of PUFAs is what made saturated fats so powerful at keeping me warm. I think SFAs in a body loaded with PUFA have a vastly different effect then SFAs in a low PUFA-laden body.
Yeah I think I can agree with that. Anyway, hopefully I didn't derail the OP too much lol
