    Have you guys heard of the "Fat Acceptance" movement?

    Apparently there are organizations that their sole purpose is to brainwash people into thinking that its completely OK to be a fatass, and that all of the medical evidence linking obesity to cancer/heart disease is false... They also hate doctors because doctors always tell them to lose weight. They have tried crappy diets, failed, and gained more weight so they convince themselves that its impossible to lose weight and try to be happy as a whale.

    One of these groups even sued Southwest Airlines because they made a massive woman buy two seats on an airplane... last I checked the fuel cost was directly proportional to weight being moved through the air... not to mention the poor sap who would have to sit there with her fat sweaty rolls spilling into his seat.

    What do you guys think? I think theres a very very very tiny percentage of people that it is impossible to lose weight, but the rest of them are just lazy asses who want an excuse to eat like shit and be ignorant about exercise and diet. They always say "Ohhh waaaah its genetics, I can't lose weight", you know what if it was genetics there would have been just as many fat asses 50 years ago as there are today... the human race doesn't evolve in 50 years.

    I think whenever I'm discriminated against I'm going to say "Oh it's because I'm obese!!!"... its funny cuz I am.

    What happened to PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY??

    This movement is already apon us. It has been for a long time. The ultimate step in this is for obesity to officially be called a disease instead of a state of being, if it hasnt been labeled as such. As far as I know NIH still classifies obesity as a state of being. What will ultimately happen is when it is classified as a disease everyones health insurance will go up to cover these "Disease" among many other things.

    I've heard of an organization like this, it is just stupid as hell. Oh I love that one excuse I've heard before from some fat people about the genetics thing, look at the kid hes fat just like the parents it must be genetics... Or maybe its cause the kids eating the same damn crap as the parents and living the same type of low active lifestyle.

    Jesus... I am just going to snap if I have to pay for people who can't stop shoveling big macs... I love it. They eat a shitload, don't exercise, get health problems, and then BLAME the health problems for their figure.. priceless. How can you give yourself a "disease?" Apparently alcoholism is a disease, wtf, I don't understand it, just like I wouldn't understand it if obesity was a disease. OK E. Coli is a f.ucking disease, not being a fat ass

    Fat discrimination runs rampant throughout our society and it is accepted by people who would scream bigot if someone made similar comments about race or sexual orientation. The bottom line is you may tell yourself you are happy with being a whale, but it doesn't make it true. Society isn't going to change and as long as the fat is there it is impossible to ever be happy with what you see in the mirror or how others perceive you.

    I hate to disagree with them, but they are wrong. When you eat a healthy diet and consume less calories than you burn, you lose weight. It’s basic physiology. There is no way around it. Fad diets typically don’t work, but a healthy diet does. I hear stories about people who insist that they ate correctly, but still didn’t lose weight. I think if someone had followed them around all day and kept meticulous track of what they ate and how they exercised, I’m sure they could have found the problem. When we are truly honest with ourselves, we know when we are cutting corners.

    Fat acceptance is that it is akin to smoking acceptance or alcoholism acceptance…to a point. It should be called the fat denial movement.

    So true... people would rather lie to themselves than fix the problems with their diet and lifestyle.

    Yeah my training partner and I want to go to the next convention because we're obese.

    I think walking around the swimming area, shirtless, eating a gallon of ice cream would be good.

    I have major fatty aggression too..

    If you take up two seats on an airplane, you need to pay for two seats.

    I guess the seats are pretty small, my shoulders go way over the imaginary line Then again, its not like I have huge fat rolls that pour into the seats next to me

    I could go on all day about these fat movements..

    +1 its not that i hate fat people, its just that i hate when they complain about it. You are fat, you are going to be made fun of and thats society. People wouldnt get Gastric Bypasses if it wasnt to help them live longer. People have a choice to be fat and lazy or look good. All the fine ladies and gents of this site chose the latter of the two. BEING FAT IS NOT A GENETICAL DISORDER, YOU ARE NOT BORN FAT. I hate when im walking behind a girl going to class and they tell their friends to wait up because they cant go that fast. I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE GO TO THE PRINCIPAL OF MY OLD HIGH SCHOOL AND COMPLAIN ABOUT THE MILE RUN TEST AND HOW IT IS UNFAIR TO HEAVYSET PEOPLE ! THE FVCKING MILE RUN. you gotta be kidding me. The good thing is that we live in america and we can eat what we want, when we want, and how we want. THAT IS YOUR CHOICE. but dont come crying to me when people yell shamoo when you go to the community pool. Thats your fault. and dont bitch at me and say i only look this good cuz i have no life and im in the weightroom all the time. U think its easy to be in highschool and college and not drink. I scarafice alot for my body and its worth it. Cuz when i walk into the community pool, all the girls stare and all the guys automatically hate me because they wish they had a body like me. I know there are alot of people on these boards that feel like me. Im done ranting. FVCK

    I had the opposite problem, I went into highschool 98 lbs. I'm about 172 now... You can change anything about yourself as long as you're willing to put forth the effort.

    I was over a fat friend of mine's house, and he was putting mayo on buffalo wings lol.

    Last night on tlc was a show called "The man who eats 33,000 calories a day," they talked about how fat people under report how much they really eat and showed 3 or 4 shut in cases and their daily diet of what it takes to be that fat. It was ranging from 15,000 cals for the 350lb british lady to 33,000 calories to a 700lb man.

    What I found so funny about the show is the fat people were so out of touch with what they really eat. This guy sat there and told the camara he never ordered food at night, then that night they caught him ordering from his bed. He dials with a cell phone and lowers a bucket down to the street. Bucket goes down with money, food comes back up. Nobody that lives in the house with him finds out.

    I saw that too... they lie to themselves and everyone else to make themselves feel better. The 700 lb black dude said he probably eats 2000-3000 calories per day... and it was actually closer to 14,000 when they totaled it up.

    I wonder how many people are in denial about this shit.

    Side note - why the FUKK did they show that british lady in her underwear in front of the mirror, playing with her fat? I about threw up.

    Did you catch the part about the fat black dude hadn't left his room or walked in 3 years. When she wouldn't bring him his food in bed, he got up and walked out to eat it lol. He was just that lazy.

    That is funny. Hear that ignorance still all the time. I know this young girl that has fat parents and now shes in 6th grade and fat. One day I went over there after school and she was stuffing her face with candy bars and marshmellows and they were having shells and cheese for dinner. NOT ANYTHING ELSE....(the mother used to be my childrens babysitter..not anymore)

    I dont think they have ever heard of vegtables.

    It is complete bullshit. I hate getting called to a home where some morbidly obese fat ass falls outta his bed and we gotta pick him up. Me and the 4 other men with me. We had a 650 pounder the other day. It is bullshit. It makes me sick. What a waste. It is sad really when you think about it. No motivation, no drive to be better?

    I also think that the pervasiveness of advertising for fast food is a contributor. 50 years ago, TV was a new thing, with less commercialism. Now, everywhere we go we are bombarded with messages to consume, whether it's food, electronics, toys, or f'in pepto bismol. i honestly think the obesity today is partly due to a mass movement to just consume more - of everything. Advertisers are discovering how to trigger hunger/want/need receptors, and making advertising harder to just ignore. At the end of the day though, people have to want to do something about it and get off their fat asses and do something about it.

    I have pretty major fatty aggression, especially on airplanes, but learned my lesson. One time, I was travelling with my brother on a domestic flight and in the waiting area saw a 400lb fatty, and said man, can you imagine sitting beside him? In line to check in, and a guy with the worst breath I've ever smelled was behind us. I get on the plane and am sat between the fatty and the dragon-breath... I vowed never to make snide remarks about people again - I think it was karma

    Americans above all are no longer expected to have "Personal Accountability". Instead they point the finger at something else. It is always someone elses fault.

    America ****ing disgusts me and it will never be the country it could have been.

    A population brainwashed to be good consumers, buy this, eat that. A land where "bigger is better". If you really think about it, it is sad. A country so young as ours and ****ed up beyond repair.

    Look at all the drug commercials on TV. A population that is kept sick and has drugs pushed on them constantly. The FDA are criminals that are making billions keeping people addicted to their drugs.

    I could go on and on.

    Is it truly any wonder why health care costs are sky high? The TV has got to be the number one brainwashing tool ever invented, and most Americans sit in front of it on average 6hrs47m everyday. We have become a nation of over consumption and have forgotten how to take things in moderation.
