You have shut your metabolism down by starving yourself and that causes excess insulin which results in fat (the dangerous kind) collecting around your midsection, hips and thighs.

Get busy eating and living again and you will be surprised what will happen to your body... UNLESS... you have an underlying medical condition that is causing you to gain or be unable to lose weight.
While I understand fairly well the body's ability to slow down it's metabolism still if one burns more calories then one takes in.....weight has got to go somewhere.....
