That came out harsh, what i mean is that i hate those sort of fat people that james mentioned, that think its cool to be fat and eat heaps of fast food and shit.
Nothing wrong with that unless they try and force their views upon you, or treat you badly because you think differently. Their body and their life.
My whole family is fat....100kgs +
I'm 55kgs. There's no fat gene. Its lack of diet control and exercise.
FxedNo there are genes that contribute to making it easier for some people to put on fat rather than others. Most people are fatter due to lack of control but this also comes on top of genes that enhance appetites, enforce emotional eating, lower metabolic rates, thyroid disorders etc etc.
Uneducated generalizations like yours do not help those who do actually make excuses .
I am yet to see a fat person who eats healthy, drinks water.
I'm 100kg and eat 1500 calories daily. Its pretty sad when you dream about bread.
Agree to disagree, I've been on both sides of the fence.
I gained from unhealthy over eating and no exercise.
I lost from diet control and exercise.
I only need to look at family parties I go to where they go back for multiple plates of food and shovel the lot in with 2 helpings of dessert. Then sit on the lounge all afternoon because theyre so full. Watched this my whole life.
People who look into fat genes and produce scientific evidence that explain obesity, are people making excuses for people making excuses.....
Calories in = calories out.
Actually, folks, it's not just about genetics or poor choices.
I have two friends who eat really healthy, workout 4-5 times per week with good programs and drink plenty of water. Both of them will never lose weight and be slim.
One has a thyroid problem for which she will be on medication for the rest of her life. As a result, there is a limit to the weight loss she has achieved. She is both fit and very healthy but would be classed as overweight, technically.
The other has another condition regarding protein enzymes (i have no idea how to explain it) but same deal essentially. She works out like a machine and eats even healthier. She is super healthy and fit but will always be overweight because of her condition. There is no medication for her to take. All she can do is keep up her good lifestyle choices.
So generalisations about fat people being lazy or uneducated are rather uninformed. There are lots of reasons for which people struggle with weight. it's not always about excuses. Some people work really hard to stay fit and healthy but will always struggle.
I have a lot of empathy and respect for those two gals and anyone in their predicament.
Why wouldn't somebody with a Thyroid disorder lose weight with a controlled diet and medication?
