No shocker here. Eat less or more sensibly and work out/walk ya lazy shiite.
You are so right, anyone with half a brain could see this coming from a mile away, the drug companies don’t make drugs for a one-time use, they make drugs that you get hooked on and can’t get off of.
Eh, I come from healthy peasant stock. I will eat whatever is on a plate in front of me until it is gone, both because of that was how I was raised (3/4 grandparents in the Shoah) and because I have a strong appetite, which is probably genetic due to it being a survival trait that helped my ancestors survive hard times.
To add to this, I am extremely tall (hence “Jewbacca”) and a mesomorph (just big, physically).
I wouldn’t be “fat” medically if I ate what I wanted (I work out a lot), but I would not be lean.
Unfortunately, I am a career pilot and have to be under a certain weight to make physical for the ejection seat. At 15% body fat, I won’t make weight. And I would get grounded.
So, through sheer force of will (and an helpful/understanding wife) I’ve maintained weight. It’s been extremely difficult. Basically I eat fish and vegetables and have since I was a kid.
It’s unpleasant and expensive, so I get why most won’t do it.
On the bright side, my wife thinks I look amazing naked, which explains the 9 daughters!
