    Diets don’t work for me. I get hungry before bed time. My body doesn’t tolerate healthy foods. I can’t lose weight because I don’t have time to make it my No1 priority. Losing weight isn’t as simple as “just eating less” , , ,

    I love fat people excuses, just admit that you’d rather have an unhealthy body than put the effort and self control in to gaining a healthy one. I’ve heard literally every imaginable excuse except “I’m being force fed!”

    Some overweight people pretend that they are happy at their size, but give them a magic button that will turn their body fit and healthy in an instant and see how many of them refuse to press it. They literally can’t not just delay the gratification of excess food now in return for a healthy body that could months or years away.

    Whilst I do have sympathy for people with severe medical or mental issues which are a primary cause for their excess weight, these causes are just not applicable for the vast majority of obese people.

      I don’t really understand why people get so aggro like this and start fat shaming. Like, do you react this way whenever someone smokes cigarettes or drinks alcohol? It’s other people’s bodies. I have honestly never heard anyone say these excuses. I normally see fat people shaming and beating up on themselves. This kind of shit makes them feel like it’s not even okay to be seen because of this shit. Shame is not the answer.

        People love to seek flaws in others so that they have to see their own flaws. Or shame others because they can’t fathom that those are happy how they are while the shamers are constrained in their own thinking.
