As we get older with most people the metabolism slows down. We become
slow oxidizers and not just eating less and exercising more won't help.
Often supplementation is needed to help restore the metabolism to more
like it was in our younger years.

Just some other thoughts, some directly related, some not.
I'm not sure in what context you mean when you say, "any idea of what
it's like to live with the feeling of being constantly hungry?"
No, I don't. I rarely ever have the feeling of being hungry, and I
wish to felt that way more often.
No, I have never gone on a crash diet. My ongoing plan to lose about
25 lbs is to eat less. A little less all the time. I am having some
success but not much. Losing weight, in my opinion must be coupled
with some kind of exercise. I have not been doing much of that
lately, either.
As to the other issues, which you put in a context, I would say, of
exploitation of women, I would have no comment, except that I don't
see anything changing there, short of the continuing campaign
hi-lighting violence against women, or domestic abuse. That has become
a more hi profile issue, deservedly so, of course.
To put a damper on girls aspiring to win beauty contests, or become
cheerleaders, I think is a misdirected objective that can detour into
political correctness issues, which can also become extreme.
By the way, do you regularly feel genuinely hungry?

Steve, leaving aside for a moment how disgusting fat shaming…or

they have to get for their one brief moment in the sun.
Now maybe you could say she was being deceptive by accepting the role
knowing she most likely couldn’t keep up appearances. But when
someone’s “investment” is built on someone else denying themselves,
for a whole year, basic sustenance, isn’t that already a major
deception? That they all do to one extent or another and that seems to
be just fine with Trump, the “owner” of the contest? And isn’t it time
to start wondering when we’re going to finally retire and put to bed,
permanently, such horrendous examples of fake femininity, fake male
dominance, fake ideals of beauty, all built on these very young and
most likely desperate women doing things to their bodies that used to
be the stuff of science fiction.
The*whole thing* is a sick and twisted deception. She most likely
just started eating normally again, or however normally you can after
doing whatever it is someone feels they need to do to whittle
themselves down to a stick.
Not to mention there's something truly disgusting about watching
someone like Trump cavort and play mind games with these basically
starving young women, all vying for his attention, while he goes back
to the next lavish buffet as he decides which of them to make his
plaything for the next year.

if you are the winner of a Ms. Universe contest and then you go on to
gain 60 lbs., I'm not exactly sure you can say you are fulfilling the
obligation for that title. There is a certain expectation of physical
appearance that I would think would go along with that role.
Now, I would say that you should not ridicule or demean that person,
but I can understand if the owner of the contest might think, WTF?
