Sir HugALot:
last month i did 600ml of double cream everyday, with 1 day as a break on top of overeating. i gave up after 2 weeks because i didnt gain anything. been averaging 5000 a day this month on normal food and still havent gained anything. am i defying the laws of nutrition or something? its really depressing and frustrating

Has your fat distribution changed at all?
Sir HugALot:
i think it might have, i still weighed the same last night, i got upset and depressed
That’s rough. My experience is similar to others here: The most effective way to consume double cream is to spread it out over hours. When I use it, I tend to drink 600ml over about 4 hours, in the morning/early afternoon. This way, I don’t experience the internal “heaviness” and I avoid it crushing my appetite.
If you’re over-consuming calories but not gaining fat, then you’re not absorbing those calories. This is normal, as we don’t absorb every nutrient that we consume, however it might be worth spending some time considering your digestive health and eating habits to see if you might find ways to optimise your calorie absorption.
