From personal experience its because we like food way to much. Its harder to eat less when the food tastes good. I found it was much easier when I treated food like an activity I had to force myself to do.

And this is why a lot of fit people have terrible eating disorders. Don’t do this, just control portions.

I’d rather have an eating disorder when I’m choosing to eat clean healthy food in the exact amount i want than eating to much unhealthy food and being unable to control my weight.

However i dont class that as an eating disorder. Its fine to make the choice to put minimal effort into food. Especially when it becomes such an unenjoyable part of the day. And you have to eat big to get big 💪

  There is a big gap between eating like shit and putting some pepper on your chicken. If you literally can’t control yourself around food that is a problem and creating unhealthy eating habits to avoid that problem isn’t the solution… Unless you plan on forcing yourself to eat flavourless food for the rest of your life.

  It is, and it only gets worse the longer you do it; please find a healthier solution before a bad habit becomes a full blown disorder.

  Again putting seasoning on your food isn’t a complicated process, and forcing yourself to eat flavourless food every single day is definitely unhealthy. If you really struggle with self control around food then speak with someone about that problem instead; imagine eating tasty, healthy food in moderation.

    I cook well if I’m wanting to cook a nice meal, however thats not what’s happening here I’m just trying to hit my macros for the day. A bit of salt or pepper isnt going to do shit to improve the meal. Its not even flavourless, it tastes like chicken and veggies. If I dont care about the meal why should i waste any extra time preparing the meal?
    
    When I’m trying to maintain weight then I can enjoy food and eat normally. But cutting/bulking you got to be strict otherwise youre just dragging things out longer than they need to be. When you have fat person eating habits your entire life requires an eating disorder to counteract it.
    
    speak with someone about that
    
    Psy op advice. There is absolutely nothing a shrink could say that would stop me from demolishing an XL pizza in one sitting.
