The fattest among the fatties, obviously. Even the mildly fat can join in on ridiculing the true porkers.

Originally posted by Jon_Snow I was reading an article lately that said actually a small percentage of the calories you burn is through exercise. While it wasn�t advocating against exercising it pointed out it�s more effective to lose weight by not taking the calories in the first place.

I hear this a lot. "You'd need to run for an hour to burn off a burger", or whatever. Your body has a base amount of energy it needs to maintain its current weight. Even fat people are probably only 2-300 calories over their maintenance intake per day on average, but that is still enough to gain 20+ lbs a year. Running for an hour might only burn off the calorific equivalent of a burger, but if that takes you from 200 calories over your requirements to 200 calories under, it will result in you losing weight over the long term.

Another often-overlooked factor is that vigorous exercise suppresses hunger. If you run at lung-burning intensity for an hour, not only will you not eat for that time, but you won't feel like eating for quite a while afterwards. I used to have a regime where I'd get home from work and go for a run immediately, even though I was hungry for dinner. By the time I'd got back, warmed down, showered and cooked it was much later in the evening. I would eat a filling meal, and by the time I'd digested it and was ready to eat again, I was already in bed and asleep. I lost quite a lot of weight during that spell.

If you want to actively lose weight, it's always better to burn the candle from both ends: diet and exercise. The single biggest challenge is tolerating hunger, and I think this is the thing people struggle with the most. We're affluent First Worlders who are used to immediately suppressing any kind of physical discomfort, and we live in an environment where high-calorie food is available almost constantly and instantly. Put any animal in that kind of situation and it will over-eat unless an active degree of willpower is exercised.

Good point. It does remind me that we also eat for a whole host of psychology reasons. Everything from I need sugar to give me enough energy to accomplish this task, or when I�m bored I snack, get boost when depressed, rewarding yourself for an accomplishment, etc

I definitely eat bad food if I have access to it so I don�t bring home anything that I will be tempted

Except children

Yeah, a funny thing about this is that one of our local annual races (Urban Bourbon half) has a host of bourbon distillers at the finish line where you can use your "drink tickets" (I think they give you like 4 bourbon tickets and 2 beers, as well as a couple food tickets) and one year I had some of my favorite bourbon after the race. It didn't go so well. I normally love it but right after finishing 13.1 miles in under 2 hours it was the grossest thing ever. I wanted nothing more than a gatorade at that moment. I gave all my drink tickets away to other runners and vowed that I wouldn't mess with alcohol until I was home and settled in that evening.

Originally posted by ziptnf The 90's were really miserable for the American diet. I know a lot of the obesity epidemic falls on Americans (we're #1 woo!) but it's rampant elsewhere too. Brazil's obesity rate is growing rapidly along with countries like Mexico and the United Kingdom.

True, things have changed a lot during my lifetime here, and this is one of them. We went from fighting malnutrition to fighting obesity and then to fighting both

Fat shaming? can I play?

food was my only friend for awhile , thats all i can say about that.

I just saw a commercial for one of those meal delivery programs, and all the actors playing the family, including the kids, were fat. The whole normalization of fatness is out of hand.

These pictures reminded me of this thread:



There, all fat threads need a chonker.

dicks out for harambe

What the fuck in God's name is that??!!

They see me wobblin', they hatin'

What the fat?!

Our cats are on the left of this chart (my cat is a fine lady and my wife's cat is a chonker in training), but our fattest cat is totally on course to becoming Hugh Hefter.

We're thinking of buying an automatic feeder because he eats way too much when we're not home, but they're too expensive

I see someone has been browsing r/absoluteunits

if telling someone they're skinny is okay then so is telling someone they're fat

I don't think it's okay unless you're a concerned close friend trying to help and think that telling them will be a wakeup call
