Yea, it's dumb. Being fat takes effort. I've actually lost weight gaming. Too interested in the game, not enough desire to go to the store.

It's all about self control at the store. If the garbage isn't at home within arm's reach, you won't have to worry about eating it.

Off topic, but I'm sitting here trying to study for finals (ie smoking bowls and reading FPH), & I was seriously considering the 5 min walk to McDs for some food, but

If the garbage isn't at home within arm's reach, you won't have to worry about eating it.

And I decided to cook my defrosted chicken breast and make a fruit salad instead. Thanks, shitlord(lady?).

Ha! You're like my stepson - school, work, gaming the rest of his waking hours and one big meal with maybe one small bite in between, BMI about 18 on a good week, 16 on a gaming roll.😃

Exactly, I've got an injury that means I can't run for a little while, so I'm keeping an eye on what I eat, continuing to weigh myself regularly, and started swimming regularly instead. My weight is stable, or if anything sightly lower.

Absolutely no sympathy from me.

Tried to argue this point with my mom. I wanted to smack her. She was convinced her recent weight gain was because she wasn't walking enough anymore. I told her she was eating too much. She told me I was wrong, then bought a $200 FitBit and insisted I showed her how it worked. I even showed her how to log her calories in MFP. That was a few months ago and she doesn't even wear the fucking thing anymore. Probably didn't like what it was reporting.

I don't understand the point of FitBits if you're just going to use them as a pedometer. You can put aside time to exercise without the fancy gadget.

I do own one, but I got it through work at a 50% discount and use it as a cheap unobtrusive heart rate monitor and smartwatch that'll alert me to any calls on my work phone while I'm on call and exercising.

So much amen. If enough exercise was the answer, then concentration camp prisoners would be swole and trim as fuck, bar none.
