I apologize in advance if meme is insensitive, I keep accidentally implying things that I don't mean whenever I make posts on the internet

Often, yeah. I always ate fairly healthy but I just have no limit that tells me I'm full so I'd tend to overdo it calorie-wise.

Mostly I'd say the issue was that being heavier made it hard to be active in general. Mentally and physically exhausting being so heavy and stiff, it was tough to get motivated to get out and do stuff. Now that I'm lighter it's no sweat without pain.

I also found out fairly quick once I started working out and counting calories by the gram that my BMR is just trash, I burn very few calories on average.
