I go between both extremes, sometimes within minutes. I am finding it difficult to figure out how much to eat. For the first time in my life I have actually gained weight & actually have a gut & need to get rid of some clothing, after having lost quite a bit of weight in a short period of time a few years ago. What is going on? I'm healing from lyme, bart, & mycoplasma, maybe others.

I have the same problem. I kept having to get rid of clothes that don't fit anymore. I lost weight... and now it seems like I keep gaining weight. I keep wanting to eat the same amount of food I was eating for a while-I think my metabolism used to be higher.

I just don't want to keep on gaining weight.

One thing that is going on is I think I move around less now. For a while I was having really bad hyperactivity and inability to focus, and I just couldn't sit still, but I don't think that's the only thing causing it.

I understand. My physical activity is the same amount it has been for years but now I am, within the last 9 months, gaining weight. I don't want to gain any more! I want to lose a little bit actually.

I have the same issue. Insatiable hunger and weight gain. I was a personal trainer and 6.5% body fat and after the encephalitis, jumped to 24%

I'm finding heavy detoxing (IR saunas, epsom salt baths, liver flushes) and eating a low histamine diet are helping to drop the weight. Weight gain means inflammation so it makes sense that if we negate the inflammatory compounds (toxins, histamines, food allergies) we should drop some weight. The problem is that one small misstep and it comes right back. It's tough

OK, so this is not unusual. I was thinking I need to step up my detoxing, so that was confirmation. There is a TTapp exercise I do on the floor called Putting Organs in Place & when I do the right side of my abdominal cavity it feels fuller, like the liver is congested. Guess I need to do even more to support my liver.
