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

With poor people, I take it you mean those who are not poor enough to be actually starving. They tend to have diets consisting mostly of starchy foods, which are cheaper than the variety of healthy foods stocked mostly in upmarket shops. Also, they are less likely to afford gyms or health clubs, or to buy workout apparatus. It has also been found (surprise, surprise!) that less attractive people (including many obese people) are less likely than their beautiful counterparts to find wealthy partners - even though they are not markedly less likely to get married.

You are being one Racoon, it's so easy to say don't do that but it's much more difficult to impossible not to. Until you've walked the walk don't talk the talk.

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

you don't want to be an asshoole? no problem, i can help you with that. First, take that predominant thought in your mind and contemplate life without ashoolishness....with me so far? good,
now, look at yourself and determine how you can modify that genetically engineered orifice. Unfortunately, eating less and exercise will not help, may i suggest surgery?

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

there is no excuse to be horrifically overweight.

A specific instance comes to mind, there was this cleaning lady working at this casino I worked on. Typical loud voiced whining that could be heard 20' away. While I was working I hear her complaining to her co-worker

"I can't believe that they expect me to push this vacuum all the way over there"

the casino wasn't that big, maby 400'*400' including the walled-off sections. This fat lady was a lazy sack, I have and had no qualms about telling such fat lazy people to shut their mouth before they stuff another cheeseburger in it or complain about having to walk around with a 30lb vacuum ON WHEELS.

I don't know why the hell those people think I or anyone should pity them. EVERYONE has problems, EVERYONE has a messed up family, an NO i will not pity your choice to eat and sit on your butt.

"poor people can't buy a workout machine or go to the gym" is faulty logic; manual labor PAYS you to work out and is something you need NO QUALIFICATIONS for. Walking instead of driving saves you money And gives you a workout (especially if you're carrying extra weight).

There is NO excuse. and frankly there should be NO PITY.

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

If you're over 35 and works hard at maintaining a well-proportioned body, congratulations. If, however, you're in your teens or twenties, no kudos - at that age, most people still have reasonably good figures without effort...

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

well, I do pity people who suffer from health conditions that have led to obesity. How hard it must be for them, when they are ridiculed by thin individuals .All too often, have I seen this and it is heartbreaking and not kind or respectful to others.

I do NOT pity lazy people who over eat and expect the world to kiss their rotunde derriere. Unless you know the difference, how would you judge between the two? fat looks like fat-it does not easily distinguish between a thyroid disorder and way too many Walmart donuts.
