Refeeds are often used to reset leptin levels. The main quetion I have is whether you need to eat at maintenance or above maintenance for the refeed to be sucessful.
As leptin is generated by the fat cells, I imagine that you probably want a positive energy balance within the fat cell in order to reset leptin to normal levels. ie you probably want to eat above maintenance so you can add a tiny amount of fat.
Does the logic work here ?
