the thing i never realized about gaining weight is that you sweat?? like i never used to sweat and now that i put on muscle i sweat like immediately when i work out or go outside when it's hot. and smell more because of all the sweating. i'm worried i'm getting too big but also i just eat junk food so i don't know what i expected. at least i'm only gaining muscle not fat

That's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen.
