If you could never eat your single favourite food again, but in return you'd never gain weight, would you take the deal?

B2Food & eatingWhat if

A natural way to answer

I think I'd turn it down, actually. Never gaining weight sounds great, but food is one of life's real pleasures, and I wouldn't want to trade that away. I'd rather find a balance than give up something I genuinely enjoy.

Key phrases to use

  • live with myself — to be able to accept your own decision without guilt or regret“I couldn't live with myself if I let them down.”
