True I've never been overweight....But I did do an experiment on myself few years ago and gained a lot of weight on purpose just to see what would happen. Few years ago I started doing some serious dedicated weightlifting and eating massive amount of food and in one year I went from 154 pounds to 201 pounds. I gained 47 pounds on my 6 foot frame , I looked good, I was a lot stronger but I didn't feel all that great. Carrying all that extra weight made me feel slow, sluggish and tired all the time so I decided it just wasn't worth it and went on to loose most of the weight I gained ...I can tell you that loosing most of those 47 pounds was a lot easier and faster than gaining them., loosing all those pounds was almost effortless....No calorie counting, no fitness apps, no fad diets. All I did was reduce the food portions and continued on working out and cycling. I eat instinctively and it works great for me..
