[QUOTE=NoShogun;39361689]And shaming fat people isn't cool, even if it does help them lose weight. The only type of weight loss shaming fat people will produce will be an unhealthy, knee-jerk reaction. If someone who is obese wants to get down to a healthy weight, I think that's fantastic, but it needs to be their choice, not someone else's.[/QUOTE] someone's health > someone's feelings priorities priorities
[QUOTE=Hellduck;39367618]because food tastes good probably[/QUOTE] Then eat healthy, tasty food?
[QUOTE=Corporal Yippie;39367647]someone's health > someone's feelings priorities priorities[/QUOTE] yea who cares about mental health!!!
A lot of overweight people say that it's just harder for them to lose weight and that they eat healthy but still get fat. For a while I totally believed them and I still do agree that it's different for everyone, but after spending more and more time with my overweight friends I began to realize that their definition of eating healthy is way different from that of the thinner people I know. And more than anything, it's parents. The parents are out of shape and cook unhealthy food and raise their kids on the stuff and they don't know any other way. It's a lousy cycle.

[QUOTE=Proffrink;39364558]Rated dumb by probable fat-kid. The only point I'm trying to make is: It's never been easier to choose to have less weight. Get up, spend copious amounts of money on designer athletic clothing and then go for a run - you'll hate it, but then just do it again a week or so later. At some point it'll all click into place and you'll be running every couple of days. I just can't comprehend people who continue to sit there and eat when they're grossly over-weight. This news comes as no surprise to me. I think society is out of ideas to tear you all you tub-tubs away from your PCs.[/QUOTE] I'm dumbing you because you seem to think you have a right to tell people that they shouldn't be fat also you're coming across as a wanker
[QUOTE=Proffrink;39364558]Rated dumb by probable fat-kid.[/QUOTE] [i]I know you are but what am I???[/i] Has this thread seriously stooped to this level? Basically it's been multiple pages of people who think they have god-given right to be assholes arguing with people who think it's better to keep your stupid opinions to yourself now it's name calling pretty soon it'll just be youtube videos of people farting
[QUOTE=RichyZ;39346760]we should call all anorexic people skinny faggots then they'll start eating lol[/QUOTE] Actually, I used to be underweight and a friend of mine compared me to this anorexic chick in our class. It made me realize how fucking skinny I was and I've gained about 15 kgs since then. I do believe fat shaming would work, as long as they are encouraged to change/aware that it's possible to change. Though bullying someone for trying to lose weight is the worst thing you can do.
