Its amazing how often they use the argument that they shouldnt have to starve themselves. The only reason people tell them to eat less is because they wont do exercise to lose weight. Apparently cutting out snacks is going to starve them. I have 5-6 meals a day because I spread out my intake so it can be absorbed as optimally as possible. I checked out my maintenance level of calories and its around 4k calories per day (workout 6 days a week and currently doing manual labour whilst finding a career). That much food a day would keep the majority of people on Earth totally full for 24 hours, but I guess if the fatties say I must be starving myself then it has to be true
