11 year old me, too. I grew 6" in about 4 months but I only weighed about 60lbs when I was done because I was super tiny to start. My mom said our food bill roughly doubled that summer because I was eating about 4 servings at every meal. Could've fit my scrawny ass in that 100% off section probably and then gone ham on a buffet.
Me in college. About 5'11", 135lbs, all tone all the time from climbing and biking several hours every day. I spent a lot of time just trying to eat enough food to keep up
Exactly this. My ex-wife was 5’2”, 94 pounds with clothes on. She got us banned from our favorite Chinese buffet restaurant. Her diet was "anything not nailed down." Lots of good reasons why she's an ex, but I do miss how she could pack away food.
Yeah, fat almost 40 year old me can never do ann all you can eat. If I did one it would be a full plate one or two plates. Teens/20’s me would marauder the all you can eat I was also doing 2-3 sports at a time but still. Thin young people are gonna eat more than us old fat fucks. I remember doing it at Golden Coral and Ponderosaas a kid
I said this above, but there's a reason for that. Thin people can eat more in a single meal than fat people because their stomach can expand more due to having less fat to push against.
I wasn’t but similar thing: while I’ve put in a lot of pounds as I get older, I eat much less than younger me. I don’t think this gate would have the desired effect
Although I’m more annoyed at the height discrimination.
