why are you lecturing somebody on the internet about personal lifestyle choices? as if the whole world doesn't know what they consume can negatively affect their health...

  Right, because assuming people willingly get fat as fuck and die early of heart failure is not lmao

> as if the whole world doesn't know what they consume can negatively affect their health.. Most people just don't... my 60+ father in law was trying to lose weight for years, after a long talk we came to the conclusion that he didn't know what a calorie was, why sugar was bad, why "dried fruits" don't count as "fruits" when your doctor recommends XXX grammes of fruits per day, why starting your day with a liter of tea with 50g of sugar wasn't helping. He went from 120kg to 90kg in a year and is healthier than he was 15 years ago. My mom told me she had enough protein for the day after eating a single chicken thigh. My dad says he's active enough even though his phones counts about 2k steps per day on average... What's your view ? People get fat, age terribly and die as a result of a conscious decision process in which they arrive to the conclusion that losing their limbs to diabetes is OK because Coke tastes good ? It's even more condescending than my take because it makes them plain dumb instead of simply ignorants

  thank you for your outlier anecdote. i don't know anybody who doesn't know sugar is bad for them. i've been sitting on a sidewalk smoking a cigarette and a stranger told me that it will kill me. the fuck? like i don't know that. > What's your view ? People get fat, age terribly and die as a result of a conscious decision process in which they arrive to the conclusion that losing their limbs to diabetes is OK because Coke tastes good ? that's crazy anybody would ever think that, let alone me, who never said that.
