      I’ve basically tried that for a few years and haven’t put on weight.

      All my family is pretty much overweight, but I can eat kebabs, spaghetti and chocolate all day, drink beer and soda (until I was literally fed up of all of it, felt the mountain of food in my throat pretty much) and not move a muscle and I still actually lost some weight.

      However I do think there’s some actual malabsorption or something behind it as well, just can’t get the public doctors to pay any fking attention no matter the evidence I have.

      So yeah it should be as simple as that, and for most people, it definitely is. But someone who actually makes a post about the subject might be more likely to have some sort of aberration.

      Personally I’m trying gluten free rn. I have been tested for celiacs in the past, but either I got false negatives or it’s NCGS, which would explain a lot, as it’s not as violent as celiac usually and wouldn’t show up on tests.

          I think that’s sort of the default. It’s more of a systemic issue, really.

          Que sera sera.

          Thank youo
