You’re right—I wasn’t expressing myself thoroughly. I had the latent assumption of a caloric deficit, which as Eliezer has stated might not be enough to trigger breakdown of fat cells in some people. If the default fasted state of those people does not effect adequate catabolisation of their fat stores, then perhaps altering their body’s typical means of energy production would trigger lipolysis not just of humoural triglycerides but adipose cells as well when in a fasted state—exempli gratia through a caloric deficit, intermittent fasting, etcetera.
