    No I get it, I was over 300lbs last year, I’m now under that and slowly making progress, it just gets on my nerves when people have the attitude of “it’s easy, just make the choice to eat less” like it’s a one time thing, it’s not, it’s constant. It’s like telling alcoholics “it’s easy, just don’t drink”. I might even argue it’s easier to quit drugs, because you can live without. I quit smoking years ago, it was a rough but it gets easier the longer you don’t do it. I can’t just stop eating cold turkey.

      It’s just like smoking, and drinking….you take it step by step day by day. It is easy, people just always have an excuse, you can’t let it win, fuck that.
