    I do a fair bit of exercise, mostly I run, but also some weight training. I have also struggled with my weight and have lost quite a bit of weight counting calories.

    Working out makes you fucking HUNGRY. Sometimes I have to stop running for a few weeks in order to get my diet in order. If I run, the willpower required to resist overeating will swamp me. Nothing is easy.

      Amen. This is why so many former athletes gain so much weight. Eating habits stay the same when training habita go nonexistent.
