I've gained about 10kg, after all the work and exercise I did, and have a fat belly now and I'm depressed about it. Why are cakes so nice? Why is tiramisu so damn tasty? I seem to have to exercise like a maniac in order to indulge in a miserly stingy little bit of cheesecake, which makes me even more depressed, it's barely fucking worth it! So I'm watching my food intake, avoiding high fat and high sugar foods and I'm fucking miserable.
Instead of avoiding foods that make you happy, why don't you try adding foods into your diet instead? I think it's called nutrition by addition.
Also I feel you.
I eat all the right stuff already, and I'm reasonably active and my job is physical. I'm just a middle aged menopausal person with fat person genes who has a tendency to comfort eating lol.
