That is certainly a kind of beautiful freedom... can anyone relate?
I've been on both sides of this issue, e.g. I was once the skinny girl who could eat the huge peice of cake without worrying about it, but looking back I think I "got away with it" by not doing it habitually, e.g. no more than 1-2 times per week , and I never had snacky / sweet food within easy reach, i.e. I never bought it for my self to eat at home, which meant I only got to eat rich luxurious treats if I went out of my way to get it, by actually going to town and going to a coffee shop, bakery or whatever

which being a homey, introverted type, this wasn't something I'd do often
Two major things changed however:
1) I got a car - and therefore stopped getting an average of
at least 1 hour of walking in per day. I sometimes miss my car free days, at the time it was annoying to have to walk everywhere whatever the weather, frequently get soaked, need to buy shoes more often, but I can see that all that walking did me a lot of good
2) I got an office job, which meant the accessibility of S foods has dramatically increased

Luckily being vegan puts some kind of limit on what S foods I can eat (e.g. most involve chocolate / dairy), but still this definitely had an impact.
I was starting to find myself on the other side of the issue, wondering why I was no longer the skinny girl who could eat anything, but then I discovered Reinhard's wesbpages and figured No S and Urban Ranger are the perfect antitode to the above problems!
