You may be overweight because of your metabolism: your liver isn’t producing enough enzymes. This means that you’re constantly hungry, and you overeat, because you’re trying to get the nutrition you need.

“Metabolic Defect In Liver That Can Lead To Obesity Found By Monell Researchers” states that:

Researchers at the Monell Chemical Senses Center have identified a genetically-transmitted metabolic defect that can lead to obesity in some individuals. The defect involves decreased production of liver enzymes needed to burn fat and may help to explain why some people become obese while others remain thin.

If you feel that you have this metabolic disorder, go to see your doctor.
