Frequently asked questions
Is the Why Am I Fat quiz accurate?
It's a self-reflection tool based on common lifestyle contributors to weight gain — not a clinical diagnosis. Only a healthcare professional can give you an accurate, personalised assessment.

Yes — all 20 questions and your result are completely free, with no account required and nothing to pay.
Can a quiz really tell me why I'm gaining weight?
It can point to the most likely lifestyle factors based on your answers, but weight gain is complex. Think of the result as a starting point for a deeper conversation with a doctor or dietitian.
What should I do once I know my top factors?
Use them as a focus list. Start logging your meals, activity, and sleep in Trimm so you can see whether those factors are trending better over time — small, consistent progress really adds up.
