I cut out the sugar some 6 months ago. My weight went permanently down. It fluctuates a bit though. Now I’m cutting gluten to hopefully lose another 5 pounds.

I still eat occasional ice cream but mostly i say no when im offered sweets and i almost never buy them either

Yes I can understand that. I have never had meat and most the stuff I eat is full of carbs.

when vegetarian became popular in the west it was about how lively it made you feel. it is a good diet for running and cardio activities. but it is hard to not get fat on it if you are inactive

My mum raised me as a vegetarian from birth until i started eating meat when i was like 12 or 13 or something. The only meats i actually like though are beef and chicken. I could pass on all the rest. Dont like seafood.

If you look to nature its the carnivores that are really fit. They need to be to hunt and kill quickly and efficiently and their diets are meat.

I understand your point. But if they figured out a way (new technology) to get us off anti-psychotics. There’s no doubt I’d lose weight, no matter how old I get. If only…

The average weight of people not on antipsychotics goes up as they age, too.

This is pretty consistent across the U.S. and Canada, not just Wisconsin.

I stopped eating sugary junk food

Don’t even have cravings now for junk

Even with takeaways now I have the power to just cook a pasta etc instead of ordering a pizza

Saving money at the same time as well!

That graph has nothing to do with what I’m saying. And my parents stayed the same weight in their middle ages. And I exercise more than them. So I’m gonna go with that.

I went to a baseball game and almost everyone there was overweight and old. I can’t wait for my future…
