I work in functional medicine and regularly see a pattern of gut dysbiosis and systemic pathogens causing metabolic dysfunction. Here is an article by Mark Hyman that explains why. https://drhyman.com/blog/2016/02/18/how-to-fix-your-gut-bacteria-and-lose-weight/

Toxic burden could also be a factor. Biotoxins, such a Mold illness and Lyme disease tend to create a biofilm using adipose tissue as their hiding spot. They hold onto fat cells making it very difficult to lose weight.
