      :lol: They do not have to eat “all you can eat.” :lol:
      They must control the amount they eat. It appears that they will have to commence weighing themselves after every meal. This should help them to avoid weight-gain. :lol:

      Would this be your imagination and viewing her negatively? How often this could happen in the mind. Your mind may be playing tricks on you. People’s mind could either make them sick or well.
