Recognizing my own bias or prejudice .....

Pretty much to all: I started the subject with emphasis on prejudice, and ended up with helpful discussions about several different subjects like depression, suicide, ethnical, health, or other food limitations. I learned a lot, and I think this is what makes this forum so helpful. Now I will ruin this post by saying that all in all, I eat what I want (mostly good stuff), as much as I want (not ever even close), as often as I want. NO! I generally eat until I feel about 2/3s full, eating slowly. Makes it a lot easier not to overeat, Plus, I love all vegetables, and could live without bread - husband opposite. he’ll have a dinner roll to go with a cheese toast. ☹️
For JK: BMI is 21.4

@ellerbracke my BMI is about 26 I think and my PCP does not want me to lose more. They actually say that as you age it’s good to have a little extra weight, I guess because if you get sick you have more to draw from. I don’t know if that’s why he doesn’t think I should lose more or what it is. Most people do not feel that I should lose more though.
When I was young I did get my weight down a lot and people were asking others if I had been sick! I hadn’t been of course but the weight I was at was not sustainable for me. I did not get that low in a healthy way. I was not underweight according to charts.
