I was obese before I lost weight (now BMR 21).

I calculated, that my obesity amounted to 1 teaspoon of sugar extra, every day.

Our bodies are excellent, miraculous regulating machines if they can stay within those tolerances regardless of what kind of shit we put in.

The bad news is, for everybody who wants to lose weight, that we have much less free will when it comes to eating than we think. To lose weight long term we need to fix whatever caused the regulating machinery to malfunction as we can't really eat less (over long term).
