A lot of these figures are hype I think.
To classify as overweight really doesn't mean any thing.
I'm 5'6" and weigh 137 lbs. I'm skinny as hell. And yet, I'm a mere 15 lbs or so short of being considered "overweight" by the medical definition of it.
Also a difference between being overweight and being obese. Add on another ~15-30 pounds(just estimating idk the exact ratios for your height/weight) ontop of the 15 you need to be overweight. Also have to factor in BMI, bodyfat% etc.
And Absolutely Virtue the GOP has claimed to be the party of personal responsibility since like 1964? It's a big part of the mainstream GOP arguments against welfare, abortion(besides the right to life shit), crime/death penalty, small government, etc etc.
It means you have a significantly higher risk of developing weight-related medical problems, such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, etc.
That's what it means.
I'm 5'10.5 and 180 lbs. I'm borderline overweight. I'm fairly strong, and my body fat % is under 15%, so I'm relatively "in shape" - but still. The heart has to work harder to pump blood into my extra tissues than it would if I was 160. Carrying around extra weight just isn't a good thing, even if you "look good". There's plenty of big strong dudes who are significantly overweight (like most NFL players for example - and I'm not just talking about linemen) who die much earlier than they otherwise should. They aren't "out of shape" in the slightest - they're just overweight, and the weight alone takes a toll.
I need to start eating more lard like those fatsos to gain a couple of pounds... UNLESS it was genetic predisposition (!)?
I admit it. I discriminate against fat people. Sorry (not really), but get off your asses and take a walk you fucking downsy ponies.
I walk a mile (at a brisk pace) every morning to school and work, and another mile back home, and I look fucking great for it.
Pro-tip: nothing tastes better than being thin.
15 pounds is a lot indeed on a small frame. I'm 5'7 and 142 atm. I used to be 137 and that was a bit skinnier than I wanted to be. I didn't need to bulk up, I swim/bike/run alot, and I just needed to eat more. That being said, I've hit 150 after holidays and I feel like a completely different person compared to 142. All that isn't even a 15 pound swing over a decade for me.
I think we need to form a Fat People Hater's Anonymous group. we can lobby for maximum weight restrictions on entering a fast food restaurant (no sense denying that greasy goodness to those of us who can handle it).
also, what the FUCK is this shit:
www.naafa.org- We Come In All Sizes
size discrimination? fuck that. the proportion of people who are uncontrollably obese due to medical reasons (and there are some, who deserve respect) is very small compared to the proportion who are just plain fucking fat.
and LOL @ the part where they bitch about doctors who tell them that being fat is unhealthy. oh god this is rich.
I point and laugh at fat people all the time. What are they gonna do, run after me?
Probably all that fried chicken and shit them Mississippians be eating!
^ LOL. Bacon cooked in lard and shit too probably? Mmmm.
All jokes aside, I have alot of family in MS, Alabama etc... my aunt deep fries Bacon, livermush and sausage on the regular and Im talking just after breakfast alone, you can feel the diabeetus writhing and coursing through your veins. Yet it tastes like heaven and you seem to not mind when its all said and done.
I guess something that good gives solace to people who know it's literally the death of them.
I mean don't get me wrong, I love me some Chitlins and pig feet and shit, but I eat that stuff once every year if that. We eat different down here, just how it is for some. One guilty pleasure is scrambled eggs with canned pork brains with cheese gritsI can't break that habit, that shit's just plain good.
canned... pork brains?
WITH cheese grits?
you sir just ruined a fine meal of scrambled eggs.
Okay what the FUCK is livermush?
People are fat cause it tastes good.
