28 year old male. I have had trouble with obesity pretty much my entire adult life. I’ve put on a decent amount of muscle over the years and right now I’m sitting probably around the 30% body fat (used to be closer to 40%) and hoping to get down to the 15-20% over the next 10-12 months or so.
My biggest problem has honestly been trying to dodge other people from trying to force me to eat. I’ve struggled with this my entire life, especially since I’ve grown up in India where people force feed you all the time (my uncle just puts food on my plate and forces me to eat it and yells at me if I don’t).
Recently it’s been happening a lot with my wife too. It’s difficult for me to gauge how much I will eat in one sitting so I often have around 20-30% of food left on my plate and it ends up getting wasted - I usually can’t put it in the fridge for later because I mix all different types and reheating that is just, gross. So I’ll throw it away. My wife can’t go a single day without giving me a lecture on how I shouldn’t waste food. I have asked her repeatedly not to do that because I’m trying very very hard to maintain a “stop eating when you feel full” mentality. Today she went on with her normal lecture about not wasting food and I just lost my shit. I dumped my leftover food right into her plate and yelled “here, if you don’t want to waste it then just stuff it in your fat fucking face”. For the record, she isn’t fat or even overweight but she just thinks she is, so I took advantage of that. I know what I did was BEYOND fucked up. But for the past 6 months I’ve repeatedly told her to spare the lecture and at the moment I just did what I felt would finally get her to stop doing it after asking her literally a hundred times to stop. I don’t think she’s fat at all. At the moment I just wanted to “hit where it hurts” because my thought process was that if I hurt her deeply then she’ll finally stop doing it. Because I was getting very very very very sick of her constantly fighting me on wasting food.
