I lost about 11 pounds in 15 days, even though I was already skinny.
After leaving, I craved capitalist food so badly that I bought three Burger King burgers, two large fries, and a cola. It was impossible to eat all that, but I just wanted it so bad.
Despite the boring, miserable and overly controlled experience, I returned the next year. I don't like confrontation, and the Communist Party officials had already signed me up, so I went again.
tbh when i was in the occupied part i couldnt eat any of their food and lost some weight too. it sucks if you're not used to it. had the best fried chicken of my life tho
