i think usually when you are obese at this age youve been obese/overweight for most of your life, and its usually not your fault. when i was obese at 6 years old was that my fauly or was it the way i was raised? im just now 21, out of my parents roof and majoring in nutrition, and there is SO much im learning about childhood nutrition that my parents did not know.
Hey. Stop it. People can work out and eat healthy, and still be fat. People can be fat and healthy. And someone being fat does not mean they’re lazy or unproductive. Also, someone being skinny does not mean they work out, cuz I’m skinny as fuck and I sit on my ass all day eating snacks. You are the problem because you don’t understand that it is normal for people to have different body types. “Fatphobic society my ass”, motherfucker you ARE the fatphobia
if you were formula fed you have a significant increase of childhood and adult obesity as opposed to an infant that was breastfed. that is something you cant control right off the bat. i believe weight has a lot more to do with hormones than meets the eye, calories in/calories out seems seems oversimplified and doesnt always work. those with thyroid issues and pcos cannot simply do that as they have a hormone issue that prevents that. i recommend the book “the obesity code” by jason fung
very very interesting stuff, he talks about how calories in/calories out is outdated because your body doesnt want to use fat for energy, your body will slowly decrease your BMR to match your calorie deficit. (meaning if you calculate your calories and -500 you should lose 1 lb of fat a week according to cal in/cal out but that doesnt always happen)
anyway, i also actually also believe its the food we eat and the way we eat it that plays a big role in obesity as well. some foods can really alter your hormones (seed oils, soy, etc). similarly, eating while watching a show can also alter your hormones (im guilty of this) watch a show while you eat-> attention on show, not on satiety-> leptin (satiety hormone) ignored-> done over time turns into overall decreased/delayed leptin response and increased ghrelin (hunger hormone)
bro no matter how much i eat, i never gain weight, even if i’m not working out. it’s not a one-size-fits-all issue. pretending that it is is simply unintelligent. there are genes that play part, people’s family habits growing up, peoples personal insecurities and everyday struggles. i’m not saying you’re wrong, exercise and good eating it’s important, but you’re being too insensitive and ignorant ab other issues smb may have going on
