I’m 370 lbs and today I had a doctor tell me that people who are skinnier than me are all like that because they work out and eat right. Can I get a roll call for the people who are less than 370 lbs and eat like shit or don’t work out? Because I’m pretty sure you exist.

Also, one time I had a doctor ask me “are you sure?” 4 times after I said I didn’t have any breathing problems. Like nah I’m just big.

Should've put a minus there to make it clearer, smoking cigarettes burns about 200kcal a day because it raises your heartrate. The other 100 is from the assumption you don't smoke inside and so include more walks outside for it over the course of a day.
