TIFU by not reading the fine print on baked goods and getting fat(ter)
I have a love-hate relationship with baked goods like we all do. Love the taste, hate the excessive calories. A few weeks ago I thought I discovered a cheat code to it in the form of Paris Baguette vegan muffins. They were only 170 calories for a huge muffin! It was amazing! In the back of my head, I wondered how they could make a delicious muffin for such low calories, but I justified it by thinking the Vegan meant it lacked a lot of higher calorie ingredients. ( 
)
I was in heaven and would eat 2 a day, because I could afford it in my calorie count. But then I noticed I was getting heavier on the scale. No worries I thought, I was lifting more, so maybe it was just muscle...until my body fat started going up.
Thinking I was eating too much, I ended up eating MORE muffins because they were so low calorie and filling. What was 2 became 3-4 a day because I could get full on 340 calories...but the fat kept creeping up.
That was until one day when I was on vacation and noticed the fine print on the calorie placard. 170 calories...3 servings. I wasn't eating 170 calories a pop, I was eating 510 a pop. Those 4 muffins as a snack was a full day's worth of calories.
Now I'm back to square one and feel dumb for thinking I had hacked life.
tl;dr - thought I was eating 170 calorie muffins for a few weeks...turns out they were 510 calorie muffins and I got predictably fatter.

They've heard that muscle is heavier than fat and just latch onto that cope when they're doing girl weights.

Oh, I know muscle is heavier, but how do they think one week of doing baby weights is the reason for their weight gain. Crazy cope

Because they once gained 7 pounds eating shit in a week, so they cope and think they can turn those 7 pounds into muscle just as easily.

White Rockstar is an acceptable substitute for White Monster. Peach Monster is kinda gay. Theres a juice monster I like but I don't remember the flavor name but it had a cool can design.

I actually know this chain, and it's really tasty (never bothered with the vegan shit though, so no comment there).
Anyway, their calories have always been clearly listed and not divided up into weird serving amounts. I think I'll get a croissant there tomorrow, check the vegan muffin listing, and see how much of an idiot this person actually is

I like bread but couldn't put down 3 of those per day if they were zero calories. What is wrong with fatties

To be fair I think dividing something you would normally eat 1 of into servings is dumb. A muffin should be a single serving or the package should indicate how much per muffin in addition to per serving.

1. It's r-slurred that "serving" can be a part of a thing obviously intended to be eaten in one go
but also
2. READ, NEIGHBOR, READ!

They do. Or at the very least it says something like -- x per serving (y servings per container) .. like it says in the post.
Fat people jump through mental gymnastics like this (thinking they found a "cheat code", when clearly they know better) because they're r-slurred fatties.

This person is actually trying, they even connect the discrepancy in their regular weighing to the fact that their calorie count must be off, and then they investigated.
Most fats would just say "see this is proof CICO is a myth and I have bad genetics"

This is a fatty way of thinking, spoken like a someone who never did any strenuous exercise. You don't "accidentally" gain muscle.
