He's 5’10/178cm and 330 lbs. I live with him, so I can keep track of what he eats. He's been obese since he was a teen. He doesn't have a thyroid problem, and all his blood tests are normal. Health wise he is perfectly healthy and doesn't have any health issues related to his weight. His blood pressure, sugar and cholesterol are normal. He has two brothers who eat more than him and are shorter and they are very skinny. He doesn't eat breakfast most of the time. I checked the calorie count of the stuff he eats throughout the day and he's eating around 1,700-1800 calories a day. He doesn’t even drink soda!According to an online TDEE calculator his basal metabolic rate should be above 3,000 for his weight.

I am 5’4, 115lbs and I eat more than him and am thin. he barely eats fast food, and goes for runs often. So how is he still so big?
It just makes me so sad seeing him struggle like this, eating like nothing and still remaining in a fat body

When you're asleep, he secretly orders take out.

Why are you settling for an obese manlet?

>>33853303

To put it simply - the maths of weight loss doesn't lie. I get the internet feeds a lot of narratives about health conditions etc but it's mostly cope bullshit most of the time. I'm the same height as your boyfriend, currently running 1700 calories a day while I cut down my bodyfat. I've previously been 235 pounds and currently sit around 190. I can assure that nobody gets up to the numbers you are talking about and sustains it whilst on 1700 calories a day.

If something is not adding up, it's because your data is incomplete. In your position it would be smartest to assume that there is calories you are not aware of.

It's probably a mix of
- You are not correctly estimating calories on what he is eating ; sauces, sugar, portion size can run a lot higher than guesstimates indicate and it stacks
- He is eating a lot more off camera ; either daily or once a week. This kind of behaviour is common in emotional eaters who get a shame complex about it.

If he was running a near 1300 calorie deficit a day. That's 9000 calories a week. This would be slicing off weight almost immediately if it were done consistently.

However, all it would take is 2 binge eat sessions to demolish that deficit to near nothing. 9000 calories quickly becomes nothing if you have any kind of proclivity for binge eating. I could wipe out a deficit like that with 1 pizza hut order and a round at the supermarket buying some sweets and donuts easily.

Are you his mom? Its not possible to force someone else away from an addiction unless they intrinsically want it themselves. He is probably eating off camera as the other anon said, or sneaking in extras, lying in his calorie count etc.pp. That bulk is impossible to maintain without tons of calories.

Eithery way, the whole thign is just fucking weird. What grown up man would allow a woman to live with him only to track and monitor his caloric intake? If he actually wanted to lose the weight, he'd simply do it on his own. Its not like not eating a fuckton of food is such a hard mental task that you need an assistant to help with keeping track.
>>
>>33853303
Because he is lying to you, and you clearly swallow all of it. That is the short answer.

>>33853303
fat people should never be trusted
they're like alcoholics or crack addicts

He needs to plap you, the more he plaps the more weight he loses. It's called reverse plapjak

>>33853303
my bf is fat too and i'm not, and while i don't entirely mind it (in the sense that i'm not gonna leave over it) i do think he should be healthier and of course try to look better. but yeah my point is that you likely just don't notice it. i was a little hurt for some reason when i first saw him literally eating jam with a spoon in front of the fridge one night. like i get cravings too but i realized then that i was perhaps wrong when i had previously also thought that this was very strange since i supposely saw everything he ate, saw him eating the same portions as me when we ate, but still saw him not losing any weight.

>fatass guys will get a gf before me
Amazin

>>33853303
The situation you're describing is physically impossible. You're either not calculating his calories right or he has a medical issue you're unaware of. By the laws of physics and thermodynamics it is not possible in this reality to gain weight while in a calorie deficit.

>>33853303
He should eat even less calories and lift.

Different people have different metabolisms! Don't believe what the internet tells you. I'm 5'5" and 140 pounds trying to lose 20 pounds.

I've been eating ONE, ONE 300-400 calorie meal a day and losing 1 pound every 2 weeks.

kek
bro what am I suppose to do. I don't feel hunger. I've been trying to lose these 20 pounds for years.

Prices of Mounjaro and Ozempic are bound to go down. But they won't permanently fix someones bad eating habbits.

But i would recommend to trying them out.
In combination with diet and exercise you are almost guaranteed to see results from these meds.

How does a hog beast like him get a gf? god damn
I'm really out here in the Netherlands where being skinny is the bear minimum while amerimutts are out there producing slampigs and plaphogs and plap plap plapping all day long while I fuck my hand

Just because someone is fat does not mean they are socially inept?
>>
>>33853303
He processes nutrients more successfully than most humans.
>>
>>33857808
No what I'm saying is that it's crazy that this 115lbs girl even considered a 300 pounds man and it's most likely due to the fact that they grew in fat ol' America. In the Netherlands this dude can have as many skills as he wants - he's NOT getting a Dutch girl
>>
>>33857816
I don't really get how a dutch you guy can be sexually frustrated when you have europe's prime hookers and weed readily available in most cities.

>I checked the calorie count of the stuff he eats throughout the day and he's eating around 1,700-1800 calories a day.

It needs to be sub 1,000 and you need a fast for several hours first.
>>
>>33857847
Its very simple, everybody's hot, the bar is raised very high, being overweight here is very uncommon and you don't get any romantic attraction from Dutch girls unless you're at the very least healthy weight.
And yeah weed and prostitutes is all you learned as an American about the Netherlands, but around that there's a whole country. That's like 5% of the country, Amsterdam. I don't want to smoke weed and don't want to pay for sex.

nice cope, amerimutt

>>33853303
>goes for runs often.
he's running to the convenience store and eating pies
>>
>>33853303
He needs ozempic
>>
if not a meme, take him to an endo and get blood work done, however its extremely hard to believe someone can maintain 330lbs eating "barely anything"
