Our culture has decided that gaining weight is the worst thing ever. And we have gotten the message in a multitude of sneaky or super blatant ways.

But they’re absolutely not the same thing!
Read...We have been told that that's how it works: calories in vs calories out. "Eat less than you expend and you'll lose weight."
