Pretty weak excuse tbh. You don’t need a gym membership or a scenic park across the street to get enough exercise into your day. There are valid reasons to reserve judgement, but this isn’t one of them. Mental health arguably is. Poverty can be in a couple of ways. The cheapest food is often very unhealthy, and if you’re working for 16 hours a day then you likely have less opportunity to eat healthily (for example look at how ~60% of nurses are overweight, compared to ~40% of the general population). But for most cases, the key personality difference between an overweight person and a healthy weight person is laziness.
