Fat activists protest diet industry

[Puma]

Well,

I would have to say that coming from a family of fatties, I have absolutly no sympathy for these people.. My family eats like shit, they always eat like shit, and that's what they get.. They never exercise, and they just roll their fatasses from one meal to the next. Its disgusting just to watch them eat.

However, my mother and father and both very average weight, so I don't want to hear about genes making my other family members fat.. They chose to be fat..

I honestly think that they should just give DNP to anyone who wants it. Sure, some of the fatties would kill themselves with it.. But, it would be an end to the obesity problem, one way or another.

Fatasses..

It's also about priorities. Most Americans are not willing to spend the amount of time it takes in preparing healthy foods and train like we do. I'm guessing an average of 2 1/2 to 3 hrs. a day is devoted to this lifestyle for me, between preparing meals, eating them, driving back and forth to the gym, training at the gym, and doing extra laundry and packing the gym bag. We give up a lot of free time to do what we do. Combine the time we spend on this with the fact that we actually know what we're doing so we see results. There's so much misinformation out there, bad training advice, bad diets, etc. that many fat people just give up thinking they can never change.

Our insurance premiums are going to be going up now to make up for the money companies are going to be giving to the fat asses.

Well, there is only one thing for us to do guys...we must beat the system. My goal is to be obese on a BMI and let my insurance company know. I will only be 260lbs at 12-14%, but they will never know I am muscle. I wonder what kind of benefits I will be able to get?

the only disease these 90% of these people have is lazyness. I realize some have thyriod and othe problems but most fat people do not. Most of these fat basterds do nothing physical and thus they have the matabolism of a tomato. add to that if they eat 3000cals a day and only burn off 1000, they are going to get fat. its not a disese spidey its simple science. i would think you of all people would realize that.

I second that!

Obesity is a disease is the classic sense of the word. That it is caused (sometimes) by voluntary behavior does not make it any less of a disease. I might add that all obesity is not caused by overeating. I know several people with thyroid deficiencies, some of which are hundreds of pounds overweight, and they eat like birds.

In America, 2 out of every 3 people are over weight and 1 out of 3 is considered obese. It is estimated that 400,000 people died last year in the US alone from obesity related illness. It is the second leading killer behind heart disease, a condition that ironically can be caused by obesity.

I don't care who you are, what your genetics are, or what deficiency you may or may not have. If you don't eat, you can't get fat. They let the problem get out of hand. If I even began to develop a gut, or love handles, I would begin cardio, 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. If the problem did not disappear I would start cutting carbs from my diet, and calories, until it equalled out.

Obesity may be a disease, but it's caused only by laziness, lack of will power, and ignorance. Unless someone actually chooses to be fat on purpose. I used to work at wendy's. I would have people come through drive-thru that were so fat that even with their seat all the way back, their stomachs still went around the the sides of the steering wheel. And that did not stop them from ordering a classic triple with extra cheese and bacon, biggie size, with a coke......and a double stack.

The only fat people I feel bad for are the kids. Their parents should get jail time.....their own ignorance is shortening the life of their kids. And the kids are young, they don't understand the concepts of calories, carbs, and exercise yet.

What's even worse is that 30,000 kids die every DAY from starvation but there are 500lb people out there eating enough food to feed 5 of them.

If a fat person wants to be declared as disabled or handicapped it should be like welfare. They can get their handicap parking and stuff like that for a few months, meanwhile they should be dieting. If they choose to stay fat, they lose their benefits and it's their own damn problem.

Sorry if I've offended any obese people out there....ok, I take that back, I'm not sorry, I've spoke nothing but the truth, and you're only where you're at from your own doings.

We should toss all of these morbidly obese tubs of goo down a mine shaft...and let them brew for 25 years or so with some digestive enzymes. End result: an oil well that would put any in Saudi Arabia to shame. Cheap gas for everyone!

That's a bunch of horseshit,fat support groups give me a fuckng break I'm tired of these fat ass sorry good for nothing blubber heads calling this a disease and excepting this like there wasn't anything wrong with them,let me tell you what being fat does.

1.It makes you look unattractive and ugly
2.It increases your chances of developing diseases like cancer,heart disease and diabetes
3.You have 0 energy and the simplest things become a chore
4.In worse cases you can't even get out of bed so now your bed ridden and can no longer see or interact with the free world.

Tell me this how can anyone except those conditions above,you got to be stupid and fucking lazy to except those conditions.

How do you deal with being fat,first stop eating crap,second start exercising and third start excepting that you are in an a unhealthy situation and start doing something about it before it's too late.

I had to stop reading b/c my eyes were watering from laughing so hard....Bouncer said they have the metabolism of a tomatio!


I too come from a long line of the *insertlastname* shape. And when I FINALLY started to get fat at age 26 they were actually happy. Hmm...wtf is that all about. My family does "struggle" with weight...and a few of them could qualify for benifits...but my dad (who is one of them) knows that being an alcholic for the majority of his life and the fact that he would eat a TUB of ice cream if my mom would let him is what makes him fat.

Me, comminng from the "fat gene"...I say Ummm BULLSHIT. Maybe I was brought up eating "good food" or maybe I thought I was too cool for cafiteria food in junior high and had a vending machine cinimin (OMG how do you spell that) roll for lunch EVERYDAY. I do know that there are different Body types and some of us have more trouble losing fat, or gaining muscle or getting pussy....the point is that I became out of shape after my senior year in HS just like the rest of the FB Team...until I started cheering in college and began taking fitness seriously! From there I went from 205(fat) down to 176 (just plain skinny) all the way back to 240 @ 9% BF over the next 4 years.

I finally have convinced my parents that they CAN lose the weight if the actually WANT to.... and have hooked them up with a Graduate-level study w/ Texas Tech's Medical center in Ama...they are participating in a comparasion in low carb/atkins type diets vs. just eating healthy(their group).

I insisted that they participate as the "control" because I am trying to make them believe me when I tell them that the word DIET has NOTHING that indicates term...it is simply what they put in their bodies to maintain life. Soooo many people start "diets" .... I always scratch my head and wonder if they have survived from somthing other than their diet...It is just like when some one tells me that they quit this or that (i.e. smoking, drinking) for a while...I want to slap them and tell them NO DUMBSHIT you just stopped for a bit...because your ignorant ass started/plans on starting again!

You guys will from time to time hear me say that I'm not drinking....or that I have stopped...or even "i'm on the wagon"...When I know that I have QUIT...I wont have a need to constantly tell every one just ot reassure my self...BACK ON TOPIC--fat people that "are on a diet" and they poor misguided people are eating a letuce only salad with RANCH or some shit like that thinking that they are doing somethign GOOD for themselves...normally eat like that for OUR benifit....b/c when they go to the car/house/bathroom they cant help but make up for lost time and KILL a box of chochlate or some shit.


I agree with whoever (thing sc) said "I dont care if they do ****whatever**** I just dont want to pay for it"

I would like to take that a step further...I not only dont want to pay for it... I dont want it to FUCKING bother me either...smoking is obvious. Do you remember the "Lawsuit" from the fat people against the airlines??? It almost floped over to movie theatres and other "standard seating" type buisness...I AGREE with the fat people...make Fat Friendly seats...but while their at it...make WIDE BODY seats...for those of us with a rather large lat spread...hmmm...it's late, Im tired --ha and hungry--- so now I will put an end to my aimless rant!

me: Hey random fatperson...why dont you go to the gym?

RFP: Because everyone in there is in such good shape .

(we all know that @ the gym a WIDE variety of shapes and sizes attend...but isn't it funny that their excuse holds the answer?)
