OF COURSE IT’S DIFFERENT FOR EVERYONE. That’s my fucking point.
My issue is with ignorant people who judge everyone based on oversimplified premises.
Sugary snacks mess up your metabolysm. You stop burning fat. Your blood sugar gets imbalanced, you get highs and lows. And when you hit the lows, you feel exhausted and super hungry. And you have no idea what’s messing you up because no matter how much you eat, you still get hungry, so you eat much more than what you ought to because your metabolism is fucked up and your brain gets the wrong signals. You try to cut your fat, but that gets you even more hungry, so you eat more carbs (even diet carbs like oatmeals and such) which then mess your blood sugar even more.
Even if you do exercise, you still end up getting fatter. Drinking diet soda doesn’t fix it and gets you even hungrier.
And while you’re doing the impossible to cut as much fat as you can, you still get fatter, your mood gets explosive, you can’t sleep well, and then people are telling you to eat less and that you’re not putting enough effort. Meanwhile your stomach is in unbearable pain because your hunger is out of control.
Also, you know what messes up hunger? Depression. There’s just so many factors to take into account.
Anyway, you know how I finally broke that vicious circle (after I got my mental health under control)? I cut my carbs. I quit all sugary snacks (even the small ones). I quit all sodas and concentrated fruit juices. Started to consume more animal fat, against the “common knowledge”. Whenever I got hungry, I didn’t eat a snack. I just ate normally. Ham, a hotdog, milk, or even an egg. It wasn’t easy and I woke up at 4AM in the morning all hungry. It was hell for two weeks. But after those two weeks I got better and my system got the balance it needed.
Boom. Lost 5 lbs in one month. I stopped getting tired. I was more energetic. I got better at the job.
But it took me years, literally years to find out it was the damn snacks (which were small enough to appear harmless) and the sodas with HFCS that were the ones at fault.
All these years of failed trial and error just to find out fats were not the enemy. But suuure, it was me eating two burgers instead of one.
I was NOT eating like a fucking pig. I was NOT supersizing my meals. But sure, armchair dietitians on reddit know what’s best for me, right?
It’s ignorant people giving unscientific advice who make life a living hell for the rest of us.

“Cut the fats”. Yeah, right.
I too have a love/hate relationship with sugar. I want it in my chocolates, NOT MY FUCKING GRANOLA ASSHOLES!!!
