Being fat is no joke man, it seriously fucking sucks.

If only there was a way to remedy that condition... hmmm, maybe something to do with caloric intake and exercise? Nah, that would never work, right?

For the very few for whom their obesity is caused by poor diet, sure. But I used to be a bodybuilder, 5'9", 245lbs with abs, coaching others on dietary science, so don't talk to me about diet or willpower: I have proven that I have both in abundance.

But then I got poisoned by mercury and I got really fat really quickly even though I kept the same diet and training.

I know my shit dude. I also thought I'd never be fat, because for the 20 years prior to my poisoning, I had near perfect control of my weight and body composition. I didn't know poisoning could do this. Turns out, IT FUCKING DOES.
