Very true, if those very morbidly obese people on The Biggest Loser can lose 100-200 pounds in less than a year, then anyone can lose weight.5string said:The bottom line here is that in the absence of a medical condition over which one has no control, the fatties just plain don't eat right and eat too much.
Wanna lose weight honey? Lay off the fast food and twinkies!
Thanks for comments..Kendrick said:The problem of overweight is mostly exist in women because womens does't do exercise in their routine life, this is the main reason of overweighting..
So are you advocating for discrimination against overweight people?The 411 said:My point is that while we have laws against discrimination I don't feel that obesity should fall in that same category because while you have no control over the color of your skin or your sexual orientation you do in the majority of cases have control over your weight.
Like this is ignorant and just plain hateful. And only one person before me in this thread mentioned the ignorance in this post. like, come onnnnn! really?Zundar said:Another thing...fat people smell. Yeast profilerates in their system...they are literall rotting inside.
Genetics has sweet fuk all to do with it.
I have no respect for fat people.
I'm going to believe that we just tolerate people for their differences. That can't be a bad thing can it?The 411 said:There's way too much tolerance for obesity in the U.S
I had a longer post written but I'll just cut to the chase. It fvcking pisses me off seeing people that are overweight that aren't handicapped, disabled or those with serious health issues. As of 2 years ago I came down with a progressive neurological disease. Before this happened I was a gym junkie, more fit and in better shape than 99% of other people. I have not been able to train normally since then, yet I am still in better shape than most people I see everyday.JusticeCause said:ike this is ignorant and just plain hateful.

I don't see why everyone is so up in arms about overweight people. Some of you guys think women should loose weight or stay slim to please men. Is this for men in general? Why? I feel they don't have to please anyone. If they think they are sexy the way they are, let them be. We should all feel good about ourselves no matter what. If your not attracted to them, don't date them. There are lots of dudes who like big women. Are some of you guys suggesting men should stop liking big woman? Like are these men causing that many problems for YOUR life that you demand they change their preferences? Give me a break.
Although more people are becoming overweight, at the end of the day their just living their lives. They, like us, are making choices for themselves. And all of our choices come with consequences regardless. Most of those consequences are unforeseen and they can be negative or positive, no matter what choice we make. Everyone can't be skinny or slim. Some peeps love working out, some love eating. So be it. That's how the world operates. There are always going to be overweight women, people in general. just deal with it and find a slim girl.
Yep, there might be a few who genuinely have a fetish for them, the rest are losers who have no/lower their standards.There are lots of dudes who like big women.
The consequences of obesity and not exercising are not unforseen. Now who's being ignorant?Most of those consequences are unforeseen and they can be negative or positive, no matter what choice we make.
Hey Mike, I'm sorry for your condition brother. Seriously I am. That's really F'd up, but if someone decides to "piss their life away" in your eyes, thats their right, it's their life. I could be wrong, but it sounds like your just angry at overweight people because you came down with this disorder. Why be angry at them? They didn't cause it. It's unfortunate it happened to you, but the fact it did happen to you and not them is troubling you to the point your wishing ill will on them. That's an issue I think you have to resolve inside yourself. Let that anger go man.Mike Brown30 said:I had a longer post written but I'll just cut to the chase.

Why should other people, piss their life away because they're too lazy to exercise, or because they have no self-control? If anything I should just let myself go, because in a few years I won't be able to exercise or do anything. So why even bother? They deserve whatever health issues come to them in the future. Whether it be heart disease, diabetes, whatever. And I hope that sounds harsh, they need to learn the hard way.
So because a guy likes fat women, they have low standards and are losers? Fat women are humans like you and me, they're just a little heavier. What makes you think that you are superior then them to not only devalue them in your own life, but to then think they have no value in other guys lives. Wow. That's pretty crazy.Yep, there might be a few who genuinely have a fetish for them, the rest are losers who have no/lower their standards.
See this is what I mean when I say the choices we make have unforeseen consequences regardless. You were a gym junkie, and I bet you never saw a disorder coming into your life. I'm not saying the gym caused it, I'm saying that what you do at point A in life doesn't necessarily lead to point B. You may go to the gym and be super healthy and then get hit by a car. You may eat like a pig and be overweight but yet live a full happy life. Nobody knows for sure if we will truly benefit or be hurt from the choices we make. So as long as we are not hurting anyone else, lets all live our lives the way we want and be HAPPY doing it. Our future will play out on its own.As of 2 years ago I came down with a progressive neurological disease.

Thank you for your concern. I will admit, I am angry, but it doesn't help that the cause of the disease is still unknown after decades of research. There is no effective treatment for it, nor are they any closer to finding the cause of it.JusticeCause said:Hey Mike, I'm sorry for your condition brother. Seriously I am.

This is where you are wrong, obesity/being overweight is proven to shorten your lifespan.You may eat like a pig and be overweight but yet live a full happy life. Nobody knows for sure if we will truly benefit or be hurt from the choices we make.
I know you're being sarcastic, so this isn't directed at you, but the people you are mocking:Rollo Tomassi said:They should all see an empowered woman for what she is and be immediately attracted to her by no other criteria than the virtue of her independence, intellect and business savvy.
Thats the key. As long as someone isn't hurting anyone else. If you go out with a girl who is physically attractive and healthy then she makes daily choices to eat junk food and after a year or so ends up getting fat then thats a problem.JusticeCause said:So as long as we are not hurting anyone else, lets all live our lives the way we want and be HAPPY doing it.

Why is that a problem?
Because she hurting someone else, namely her man. I can guarantee he isn't happy about it and that hurts him as the days turn into weeks, turn into months, as he watches her go from attractive to repulsive.
Most men who like big women and go after them, like them because that is the only type of women they can get. I never seen successful men with women who opt for a fattie instead of a size slim weight woman. Being overweight for a woman is unattractive quality and most men on this planet agree with it.JusticeCause said:There are lots of dudes who like big women.

I don't think for a minute that big women think that they are sexy. What they are trying to do because they are now the majority is to convince other women that staying fat is 'empowering' and its good to be who you are instead of striving for a higher and healthier goal such as losing all that extra weight.JusticeCause said:I feel they don't have to please anyone.

That is not the major issue here. Due to the increase of overweightness in women in North America the healthy pool of slim women to choose from is shrinking. Which causes the following:JusticeCause said:If your not attracted to them, don't date them.
"Female obesity is not just bad for women; it’s bad for men, too, who have to wade through tons of sunbathing walruses before finding the lean babe on the beach, competing furiously for access to her overpriced vagina. (Fat men are no great shakes either, but due to the nature of sex differences in attraction, fat men don’t suffer the same penalty in the dating market that fat women do.)"
You did a disservice to these women who were on the right track in handling their chunky friend growing problem D) through the act of shaming.JusticeCause said:This thread reminds me of a discussion I had last year with this chick and her 4 friends who were all in their early 20's.They were going on about how fat women should be ashamed of themselves for being overweight and how they were disgusted at the thought of seeing these women and sitting next to them. One of the girls was a little chunky herself, she admitted. Listening, I kind of felt that their words had a little bit of hate and prejudice in them and I argued with them for like an hour about it. I tossed it up to them just being immature haters.
