I am somehiw overweight. This is because I do not make the small effort to eat less. That's as simple as that. On top of that I have medical issues that make it difficult to control weight. But I am not trying to hide behind this: I should just eat less (as I have done, losing 16 kg at some point) I am luck enough to live in a country where access to vegetables and fruit is easy, so no whining about that either. My blood tests are good, I am just carrying an extra 20 kg because of perdonal choice (which I do not like, but this is still a choice) To the 0.1% of people who have a medical issue that prevents them from controlling weight, I am truly, honestly sorry for you. To the x% of people who cannot for a reason or another afford/get healthy food - same. To the others who theoretize on the philosophic aspects of them being overweight: eat fucking less, drop the heavily processed food and sugar. Yes it is hard but it is not going to happen spontaneously. It is tiring to see people who get out of MC Donalds or have a gargantuan portion size to say that they suffer. It is painful to see that in the US morbidly overweight prople drive in a shop, getting more sugar or bad food. The US already suffers from all alien invasions (at least this is what I get from movies), no need to be the country bringing the distopia of WALL-E in real life.

> I am somehiw overweight. This is because I do not make the small effort to eat less. That's as simple as that. A causes B. You are saying B thus A. This is incorrect reasoning. It's like in medieval times when someone had a toothache, the tooth was pulled. Because nobody with pulled teeth has a toothache. Then at some point, someone said: wait, perhaps we can be smarter than this.

  I do not understand. When I eat too much I gain weight. When I eat less I lose weight. This is not theoretical - I eat half and lost 16 kg. I let myself go and gained back. This is that simple, no need to say how the world is against me.
