I'm a little ...I dunno...shocked, maybe?
If you WERE consuming 600 calories/day...and
If you WERE/ARE (I'm not sure) consuming 50g of fat/day...then,
you were consuming +/- 450 of those 600 calories in fat, HOWEVER...
You probably malabsorbed enough that you body got no calories from 80% of those 450 calories, which means...
That your daily calories (that were NOT malabsorbed) were 600- (80% x 450) = 360...and from that you would need to subtract the smaller bits that were not absorbed from the other food...so........
I'm thinking that your body was trying to operate on less than 350 calories per day which is not only very dangerous, but also causes your body to DESPERATELY, because it IS a matter of life and death, hold on to everything it can from every bite you take.
IOW...your body is doing what it can...conserving where it can...because it is convinced you are starving to death. Until you scarf down a couple of ribeye steaks cooked in butter (not necessarily literally, but you get my drift) your body is going to continue to try to keep you alive in spite of what you think it should do.
