yeah, high blood pressure medication like beta blockers for example. i am very aware of that since i take them. but it's not the meds that make fat, they slow down your metabolism and its taking longer to burn calories
but there is also one very simple rule: if you eat more calories than you burn, you will become fat
i know you eat very healthy and you're not fat. Easy as that - obviously.
do you think that the people you see that weigh more than 10-15% more than their normal weight are that fat because of the medication they take, or because eventually their daily calorie intake exceeds 1600-2000 calories (depending on being male or female and their height)? When one Big Mac with fries and a Coke already have like 1500 calories - without supersizing it.
and thats just one meal that day.
