I can’t tell you how much the kind words mean to me, I’m not nothing special brother. Consistency is the hardest part but the most important. Intermittent fasting, lifting weights, and cutting out sweets and pop saved my life. I wish you the best in your endeavors brother!

How can someone eat that much it would make me sick it would make anyone sick

[@significantstrike-nd8cs]

Interesting huh. I know its more of a mental thing but You would think the body would simply reject that much food like hey, i cant process anymore food and you would just vomit or get really sick but i think the stomach expands and gets used to receiving food. any excess food just gets stored as fat in the body. Also, omce you get that big, you are always hungry cause you trained your body to crave food and when you dont eat you body goes through withdrawls so you over eat to satisfy the hunger.

Imagine thinking Obesity is just from Food. Shows you are ignorant.
