Oh my god this is such a dumb reply. I was pointing out that it's pretty unbelievable that you would be a bartender for 10 years and only have had a drink (or in OP's case gotten blackout drunk) once in your life.

I would hate to order a drink from someone like that. Follow a formula for a cocktail all you want, you should still know what it tastes like. It's like a patisserie chef who has only ever eaten one cannoli.

CICO is incredibly helpful advice, and should be the main piece of advice given to anyone wanting to lose weight. I wish someone told me when I was starting out. Eating healthy and working out doesn't mean anything if you're not counting your calories and making sure CI < CO.

"You don't need to exercise, you don't even need to eat healthy. Eat less than your BMR and you WILL lose weight."

Your claims of a metabolism slowing down "to a crawl" if a person is hungry isn't helpful in the slightest; comments like this demoralise people. They work out, eat kale, make sure to never feel hungry lest they "slow down their metabolism to a crawl" and still aren't losing weight. "why bother?"
