A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

don't do this - how to gain fat as fast as possible
Only eat processed food, so for potatoes -- instant potatoes, or really blend the potatoes before you eat them in a smoothie... buy the most processed and fake bread possible (wonder bread if you got it)... processed carbs hit your blood stream faster spiking your glucose more, which drives your insulin, which will suppress your leptin and drive hunger.
Only use seed oils - they drive inflammation and adiposity, so you want to be dosing seed oils every few hours
Eat constantly - every 2-4 hours you want to keep your insulin high, so eat a snack (combining processed potatoes and bread and seed oil) every few hours, it doesn't have to be a big meal... but you want to graze all day
Mix fats and carbs - this will cause the randel cycle (not a cycle) to misfire and drive inflammation, and adiposity. Every time you eat make sure your getting enough seed oil to stall the carbs your eating from the bread/potatoes
You will be forcing your serum insulin high all day (it takes 2-4 hours to come down after a meal), so your body will be in fat storage mode (not burning) all day.
Seriously though, there have been some great papers on the the metal disorder of anorexia and metabolic psychiatry - if you fix your metabolism, your body will recompose, and you may address your borderline anorexia...
Symptom Impact and Safety of Ketogenic Therapy in Adults with Anorexia Nervosa
Basically it's the Dr Ede strategy - eat your eggs and cheese, whole foods only, avoid carbs when you can...
change your diet - change your mind
