This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Age might be a factor. Are you 30 yet? My metabolism slowed down in my 30s.

Mid-thirties yeah.

The point is if it was just normal high metabolism, then why does no-one else in my family have anything even remotely like it, as they're all overweight? (And I used to be a bit round at one point as a kid)

And I know my brother's are my brother's with the same certainty the Mario Bro's do, so it's not like I have completely different genes.

I do have a kidney thing and it caused high BP for some reason. And since the adrenals are located quite close to where the problem is and where they operated on, idk, might have something to do with that as well.

Stress, diet, all that. Hard to science out by myself though. The public doctors here suck. And not in a good way.
