A member asked:
Can someone stick to a low-cholesterol diet and still successfully gain weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Weight gain comes from increased calories which are found in all foods - fat, carbohydrate, and protein sources. Limiting one (fat) does not mean that excess calories are not consumed in other 2.
