IKR? I was a heavy smoker for 15 years (40+/day). Giving that up was really hard, both emotionally and physically (they don’t warn you about the physical withdrawal effects - sweats, hyperactivity, insomnia, nausea etc) and habit breaking is a bastard. But at least with that you can stop. It’s binary, you’re either not a smoker or you are. I’ve found managing diet to be harder than that. I think that’s easier than not over eating because you have to eat and psychologically, I’ve found that harder. Every meal feels like a little failure. I used mounjaro this year which has helped lose 10kg, but even that’s levelled off. Am also still a fat ass.

It’s really awful because unlike smoking or cocaine or anything else, you can’t just quit food. You need it to live, without it, you will die. Having too much of it permanently alters your hunger levels which makes you require more of it, it’s an endless feedback loop that scientists haven’t figured out yet.
