as someone who can’t be bothered to watch Lost, what are some of the reasons given for him remaining fat?
I recall something about him finding a case of candy bars in the plane’s wreckage, and hiding them so he could have them all to himself.
They find an abandoned station full of nonperishable food supplies and he becomes the person in charge of supply rationing.
Also I think at one point they pull the “I tried, but I just can’t seem to lose the weight” card and kinda give up.
But most importantly, if he lost a ton of weight those time travel episodes would be tough to track!
The guy who played Sam in game of thrones said he would ask people, who pointed out tye similar plot hole with his character, something along the lines of “you know I don’t actually live on the wall right?” I don’t want to search for the clip to find the exact quote so sorry if that’s too far off.
Also something along “theres living dead, giants, dragons, magic, and the only thing you find unrealistic is someone not losing weight?”
[EDIT] To downvoters, it’s in quote marks, because it’s a quote.
Because there is no in-fiction reason why that would be the case. Dragons aren’t realistic, but not losing weight is internally inconsistent with the rules of the world as presented to us.
John Snow regularly gives his best buddy his extra rolls because he has a gluten allergy.
Boom, explained.
