    Which is one of the reasons the OP should really see a person who specializes in eating disorders, as well as looking to address the underlying issues.

    tigersword doesn't understand what you said and she doesn't realise what she's saying is pretty much the same thing as what your saying, which is to say she doesn't know what she's talking about. Or him for that matter.

    So you're throwing personal attacks at people who disagree with you and on top of that, you're wrong.

    Tigersword and Sara are correct but you're probably misunderstanding what they are saying.

    The conversion of carbohydrate to fat DIRECTLY doesn't tend to occur to any appreciable degree in humans (in rodents it's more common). This is what DNL is -- De Novo Lipogensis.

    Excess calories do make you fat but it's not due to carbohydrate converting directly into fat. Excess carbohydrate blunts fat oxidation so you basically oxidize less fat which means you get fat indirectly. But it's not from direct conversion from carbohydrate to fat.
