The way you say it makes it sound like you only just noticed that you've become fat over 20 years.
I usually force myself to start counting calories again once I go off a weight I'm happy with (readjust my intuition.)
And that means counting calories going in (food) and out (normal resting use per day + potential exercise)
- twawaaay 4y agoThat was a long time ago. I lost most of it about decade ago and turned most of the rest into muscle. Running daily. Don't count calories.

Calorie counting does not work (that's exact point of my post). What you need to do is to teach yourself to eat and behave as if you were healthy and this gets down to building right habits and displacing bad food with good food. Notice I am not saying dieting -- removing food you like and leaving void in your diet is a recipe for frustration and breaking your promise. Instead, learn to embrace healthy food and slowly include more of it in your diet and you will naturally start eating less of the bad ones.
- sva_ 4y ago> Calorie counting does not work Works for me. And yes, you shouldn't eat garbage. In other news, water is wet.
