    Hormones. Specifically your thyroid can dramatically change your weight by Hormones production. In my case my thyroid has almost completely shutdown. I could just eat a carrot every day and still gain weight without synthetic hormones. I believe it can sometimes go the other way make it hard to gain weight. I strongly encourage having hormone levels checked and balanced. I wish I’d known about this 20 or 30 years ago.

      Sorry but you cannot create weight out of nothing. A single carrot a day will not generate a caloric surplus, and you need sustained caloric surplus to gain weight.

      They said, getting your hormones checked is very important
