Gosh yeah that one in particular so many people struggle with. Actually bodybuilding is one of my interests that I mentioned above. Once you look the part a lot of people like to just randomly talk to you about fitness/food/weightloss lol.

I’ve noticed that almost everybody who says they “cannot lose weight” believes that they are already eating very little. 95% of the time I just nod solemnly. Almost nobody wants advice or would be willing to take it if offered, they just want to vent and feel understood, and that’s fine.

…but gosh is it frustrating to see so many people give up, and then come up with outlandish justifications as to why it’s just “impossible for some people”. The mind will do amazing things indeed to shield itself from confronting hard truths
