Normally thin people are not doing any of that.

Those struggling with a hunger disorder have “strategies”.I have my strategies, too. If I didn't, I wouldn't have been one of the 5% who lose weight and manage to stay within the normal weight range for their height.

Personally,...I am very encouraged by the work being done on gut bacteria. Finally! There may soon be a low cost and non-invasive treatment to correct the problem.

Please read the link to the Scientific American article that I provided.

Try adding the protein and see if it works for you. It did for me.

Please read the Scientific American link that I provided in post #12.

The high numbers of C-Sections and antibiotics ( given to people and animals) may explain the relatively sudden increase in obesity in the U.S.

Research on gut bacteria is proving to be **very** encouraging. Finally, there may soon be a low cost, low-tech, and non-surgical treatment for hunger disorders.

I think the cause is obvious. Women who are obese are not very attractive to most men, so they can’t get dates, so they become lesbians, because they are desperate for companionship and lesbians are not as picky.

It is worth a try.

Even though those with normal levels of hunger hormones don't ever even think about any strategy, those of us who do must find ways of coping.

You're welcome.

In my retirement, I decided to take courses at our local community college which occupies a building that was once a high school. Recently, they posted photos of the high school from the 1930s.

My observation: Not even **one** student or adult in any of the photos of that high school was even a little bit overweight. Easily half of the current students in the ( now) community community college are either overweight or obese.

Yes, there are changes in diet and excercise, but there have also been changes in the rate of C-Sections. In the 1930s there were no antibiotics in the early childhood of any of these teens and adults. ( I would have to look up to see if there were sulfa drugs).

Actually, not all lesbians are fat and ugly. I’ve known quite a few who are what I would call drop-dead gorgeous. Beautiful, thin, and quite nice. Who knows what causes them to choose that life style but it’s not for lack of potential male suitors.

Did it ever occur to these rocket scientist that having their own zip code is what caused them to be lesbians in the first place?

“Not even **one** student or adult in any of the photos of that high school was even a little bit overweight.”

I have noticed this also. Watch the real old movies. Lean people, and those that look overweight are almost what we consider normal today.

I think there have been studies showing food portions have gotten a lot larger since back then. Not sure which is causal; larger portions giving to larger people, or larger people needing larger portions.

Actually, I think it would make a much better topic of research to determine the eternal chicken or egg enigma of “Does becoming a Lesbian make a woman become fat and ugly, or does becoming a fat and ugly woman force them to become Lesbians to associate with other like minded fat and ugly Lesbians”

I'd pay for that research project.
