Re: Obesity: Why are we getting fat? :epizza:

you seem a little harsh and judgemental towards obese people.
You don't know what has driven them to over consume, if genetics was not a factor. A lonely child without friends or a parents concern may find comfort in chocolate and chips in front of the TV. There are many possible scenarios that could come into play, but disdain and contempt is not a good motivator for someone to change their eating habits and lifestyle.
Yes, burn more calories than consumed, but do it moderately to avoid risking a heart attack. Different types of bariatric surgery can certainly help, but there can be complications and side effects as well. If the symptom is out of control pie hole shoveling, then counseling and professional help would be a good idea in addition to a quality diet plan with exercise
