    As somebody who used to weigh over 350 pounds, you need to be the thing that stops you. I promise, losing the weight is harder than just not buying that cake in the first place.

      For me gaining weight is harder than losing it. I can eat all of that for myself and didn’t gain weight but still got the diabetes for myself

        I pray I’m one day able to afford to just go buy a cake for no reason. I might finally be able to gain a pound.

        I have found the only way I can not be obese (and I mean the lowest BMI I have had is 24) is the most extreme diets - keto and now carnivore since keto is too hard to stick to

        Though I don’t envy you. You have no clear signal that you’re eating unhealthily, but suffer the same ill health that us fatties do if you do eat unhealthily

        You need to pump iron and eat protein to gain healthy weight

      It’s a cruel joke that life is too short not to enjoy these things, but by enjoying them, you make your life shorter.
