[QUOTE=Bobie;37349059]yeah man addictions are always a choice im agreeing with you dont raise your tone to me!!![/QUOTE] If you're addicted to fatty foods, then you need to break that addiction. You need to make the choice to get help, and most people don't do it.
If you have any addiction you need to get off your ass and take control of it. "I have an addiction." Is not an excuse to let it take control of your life. Get help.

My med school buddies (thrustworthy source amirite) say that 95% of obese people do not have an illness and that they can fix it with diet & exercise. It's true, just try to count how much sugar you eat a day. One coke is already 1/3 of what you need daily, and that's just one drink (same with orange juice, that shit is sugary as fuck). People don't realize how much excess calories they take in. And the fact that we're not designed to live a sedentary life.
[QUOTE=Bobie;37349967]you understand how addictions work right "YOU KNOW WHAT, TODAY I'M GOING TO [I]CHOOSE[/I] NOT TO BE ADDICTED! :)"[/QUOTE] That's not what I said at all but okay.
[QUOTE=Swilly;37343714]You're a douchebag. There are plenty of obese people who eat right, deit and exercise and never get anywhere.[/QUOTE] Let me guess you are fat yourself and trying to justify your cognitive dissonance? There are plenty of obese people who *think* they diet right and exercise and never get anywhere. AGAIN: explain to me how you possibly think you are exempt from the laws of thermodynamics? If you are in a caloric deficit you will lose weight. I'll say it again for effect: if you are in a caloric deficit you will lose weight. It's literally impossible for you not to. There isn't some magic obesity magic keeping people fat. It's their excess consumption of food that keeps them fat. I can fully empathize with the fact that there are co-factors that make it [B]harder[/B] for people to change their lifestyle, but saying "lol fat people are just unlucky" is not only utter bullshit, but it's utter bullshit that just serves to further reinforces what is becoming a huge problem in western societies. The unlucky people are the ones who have legitimate medical disorders I would not wish on anyone, people who are bedridden and disabled. Not the people who go "abloo bloo im so fucking depressed I'll just eat this family sized pizza and wash it down with a 2 liter bottle of coke"
[QUOTE=Bobie;37349967]you understand how addictions work right "YOU KNOW WHAT, TODAY I'M GOING TO [I]CHOOSE[/I] NOT TO BE ADDICTED! :)"[/QUOTE] You sure are defending these people pretty hard. There is absolutely no excuse. There are tons of institutions set up for this, and it's not exactly the hardest addiction to break because you can still, you know, eat while breaking it. [editline]22nd August 2012[/editline] And the "addiction" doesn't make it any less of a choice. You can CHOOSE to not reach over and drink your third cola.
[QUOTE=Bobie;37349967]you understand how addictions work right "YOU KNOW WHAT, TODAY I'M GOING TO [I]CHOOSE[/I] NOT TO BE ADDICTED! :)"[/QUOTE] oh so I guess you're just stuck in the rut forever and there's nothing you can do, the food has your family hostage and if you stop eating they'll kill them or something its impossible to quit [b]Get real man,[/b] it's just food.
[QUOTE=Bobie;37349967]you understand how addictions work right "YOU KNOW WHAT, TODAY I'M GOING TO [I]CHOOSE[/I] NOT TO BE ADDICTED! :)"[/QUOTE] Uh that's exactly how psychological addiction works. Physiological dependance from chemically addictive drug compounds is much worse, don't you dare make that comparison.

I was 240lbs for probably 4 or 5 years, then I went on an exercising rampage and lost about 60lbs in 2 months, then less over the course of a few months. The honest truth is you can't gain more weight than you are eating, it's not physically possible. I was fat because I was playing TF2 all day with friends from school and eating shitty foods :v:
[QUOTE=Clementine;37337094]Fuck if I know, I don't think it really changes anything either way, her lifestyle is her own, not your's. Its funny that the people who generally eat terribly but have a good metabolism are the ones who make fun of fat people, even though they would be fat if it wasnt for their metabolism, they are technically alike, just fat people are unlucky.[/QUOTE] no i have a great metabolism, i just do something we humans like to call being active.
