Well, thank you for telling me that I have understood my life all wrong.

About 10 years ago I weighed 113kg. I decided to really tackle it hard and not give up. Threw out all the sugar at home and went on a weightwatchers diet.

Over a period of 1.5 years I got my weight down to 97kg. It was very hard. It was a constant battle with hunger and feeling like crap. But I made it! I reached my goal and it was awesome!

So I crossed the finish line, right? No more hunger?

Guess again. I was back to 110kg a few years later. Still hungry.

So yes, please do tell me about how the urges will go away.

No, they do not.

It's a chemical reaction somewhere that in my body is happening with different amounts of components than some other people's body's. It's not a thing that I can wish really hard to change.
