The struggle is worse the older you get.

    Jokes on you I got some sort of undiagnosed malabsorption issues and won’t get fat even when I eat burgers and candy and alcohol day after day.

        Sort of and also not. Not getting energy from food also means I have no energy for you know, existing.

        So while I might not need to worry about getting fat, I’ve also nowhere to display not being fat.

        I tend to sleep quite a lot.

        no no it is not.

        being a bag of skeletons that do not like each other, eating 5000 calories a day and losing weight, that is not fun.

          Yeah luckily I don’t have it quite that bad, (especially after I went on an exclusion diet and slowly added things to a really plain diet and sort of figured a bit what works what doesn’t) but, yes, I definitely agree with you. Not fun.

          I’d rather be fat and jolly than slim and super cranky from constantly being in some weird state of mild starvation. But it’s so mild and I make sure to supplement vitamins and whatnot so none of my basic lab-work is showing anything too far out of the ordinary, so the busy public doctors can’t be bothered to look into it since to them everything seems fine. Even when I can show them almost a years worth of literally shit pics, me having taken photographs of my stinky and floating orange poo. (I sent them to a spam-email I have so I don’t have to keep them in my phone’s gallery.)
