  Depends on if the descriptions are jackass genie rules or not. If it’s being genuine, it means you won’t gain any excess weight beyond what’s healthy. 1 and 3 seem like descriptions ripe for abuse as well.

    Excess weight is literally fat. That is how the body stores excess energy.

    Not sure if you can live without any fat or not. Would have to look into it.

        Yes I read it the first time. It’s such a wild undefineable description that differs from person to person, even from environment to environment.

        But you interpret the magical pill how you want. And I’ll interpret it how I see fit. Deal?

  It says you can’t gain weight. I’m already overweight, and about max for what I can be to keep my job (military) and not totally break down. So if “can’t gain weight” means this is my max weight and no matter what I do I can’t go past it, that makes a comfortable hard stop for future efforts toward dieting.

    I see it from a biological perspective. Weight gain is derived from absorption of nutrients. You gain and lose weight all the time. As soon as your intestines no longer hold food you are no longer absorbing nutrients and therefore are losing weight from just existing.

    I cannot argue with your interpretation of a made up magical pill. I just see it from another perspective.

    Perhaps you would enjoy the no fat pill more since that’s how the body store excess energy.
