I have also found this much easier than cultural perception had led me to believe. I remember seeing a study a couple years ago that on average ppl gain like a pound a year throughout adulthood and just imagined that was inevitable. But it isn't, there's a knob you can turn! https://t.co/Jh9Yf8b06F

Yeah, it’s not that hard. Mostly this incorrect belief emerged from the Fat Acceptance/Early Death movement spending more than a decade lying about how it was “impossible” to even lose a pound and that no one could resist eating pints of ice cream and anything else in sight like some omnivorous Cookie Monster.
All lies. It’s not even really that difficult not to just mindlessly eat. I weigh less now at 48 than I did at 28. It can be done.
