    Back in my early 20's, I ate at least 3,000 calories a day (no, not just fruit, yuck), and easily maintained 130 lbs at 5'6". It helps if your feet are your sole source of transportation (no car :neutral_face: ) and you have an active job (I worked in a warehouse, stocking/cleaning shelves, then I worked in commercial laundry). CICO still applied.

    IKR? In my case, there wouldn't be enough time in the day to do so, unless I ate all the fruits while on the loo...more efficient that way, lol! Would that be FIFO (fruit in, fruit out) then?
