    For you, yeah.

    For most people even, sure.

    But not everyone, there’s an absolute shit ton of natural human variation on top of conditions/diseases that effect that.

    Like, some people react to a normal diet by their body drastically cutting energy expenditure to try and maintain fat reserves.

    Billions of years of evolution says carrying around as much fat as possible is the optimal choice, and different people have different traits to maintain those energy reserves which used to be the most important part of physical fitness.

    Like, of any possible addiction, an addiction to a high calorie diet should make the most sense to people.
