You don't have to eat that much to gain weight

Especially if you're short.

I just had a really annoying conversation with a relative. She was trying to congratulate me on my weightloss but just not in a nice way. Then she asked me how hard it was to "not stuff my face until I feel sick every day".

I just kinda brushed it off but honestly it struck a cord.

I've never eaten a lot. Just your standard day with 2 or 3 meals and some snacks, I didn't binge or have 5k+ calorie days, I ate homecooked food, etc. But having such a low BMR (1800 when I was obese) it's so easy to steadily gain like I did when you don't count calories.

I honestly don't eat that much differently than before. Literally just a few slices of bread and some chocolate or something sweet less, that's the difference.

I'm just feeling very weird about this. I can't even name the emotion, I guess strangely annoyed? I don't know, does anyone relate?
