Live It, Don’t Diet

And everyone who claims that they only eat 800 calories a day and still gain weight is lying, lying, lying. Have to be, as thatโ€™s physically impossible.

I once saw a dude who maintained, โ€œI only eat about 1,000 calories a dayโ€ routinely eat ~1,300 calorie breakfasts in front of me. He wasnโ€™t counting his 300 calorie drink, nor any of the copious toppings he added to that breakfast. I never saw what he had for dinner (only breakfast and lunch), but I estimate if dinner was anything like the rest, he was consuming around 3,500 calories per diem. He was mystified why he was not losing weight on his โ€œdiet.โ€

This is how most people โ€” for lack of a better word โ€” think.
