Default Fat Cells

I read somewhere a while back that if you put on weight your body can increase the number of fat cells it has as well as the size of those cells, but if you loose weight the total number of fat cells in unaffected and the cells just get smaller.

On the other hand... I have also heard that this is BS and that you have X number of fat cells regardless and that the size of the cells can change but that their quantity remains stable.

Which is correct?
