LMAO @ “Have you tried eating less?”
What a ridiculous question.
Stay strong and I hope you can get the medication you need.

I mean it is pretty crucial.

Assuming that someone trying to lose weight for 5 years never considered eating less is laughable and condescending.
It’s like telling someone with a severe substance addiction “You missed one crucial thing: Have you tried not doing drugs?”

True lol. It’s just that that’s usually the culprit. Eating less is really hard, and tons of people are addicted to food. I’m not trying to be the enemy here, despite what it seems. It’s the fact that OP didn’t say they tried eating less in their post, so that was what first came to mind.

And our bodies are just machines. We can’t create fat if were using the calories we consume. I don’t really get anyone who “tries” to lose weight for years. If you keep putting more food in your body than you need, your body converts it to fat. The idea of since “strange reason” that a body won’t lose weight is silly. There’s just no way for a body to keep weight on unless they are taking in more calories than they are using. So if OP can’t bear to eat less, they need to get really active. There really isn’t a mystery here. Its math. If you only add to the equation, the figure only increases. This is a willpower issue. … Or maybe we found the one obese American whose body defies caloric mathematics.
