Nutrition and the body is so strange. There's evidence that the adenovirus Ad-36 somehow permanently causes your body to be more likely to store food as fat.. Conservation of mass is always a thing of course, but genetics and tweaks like that adjusting the way your body treats your blood sugar are very interesting. The same person could try to keep to the same diet and exercise, and one feels exhausted and hungry constantly while the other feels normal, and yet the exhausted one will gain more visceral fat than the bright and happy one. It's difficult to pin down any particular system to keep the body running smoothly. Some fats cause inflammation; some don't; some do only if they aren't balanced with other fats; thousands of things affect the efficiency of digestion and nutritional availability to the body. Compounding the number of variables, it's very difficult to absolutely strictly control your diet, pretty much ruining the usefulness of a lot of personal observations in aggregate. Still, people find things that work for them. It seems like the best thing to do if you struggle with diet / health and nutrition is to try different things until you find something you like that makes you feel good. Some diet that minimizes your misery in either direction of over-indulgence or constant hunger is probably the better. It's also been studied that just tracking your calories without making any intentional changes to your diet makes you eat healthier.
