A member asked:
Is there a condition in which you cannot physically lose weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Literally no: Your body only gains mass (weight) through consumption of energy /food calories. There is no condition that will 'add weight' without intake of calories - stop eating altogether, you will lose weight. That said, there are conditions that can make it difficult to lose weight.
