Fat People

Nice logical fallacy there. Because you say its so, it must be so, eh? But then again that must be how things work in your world, as evidenced by your posts.

LOL Kids are so funny. How does that make US shallow? Obesity is a growing problem but to say a fat person is fat because they choose to be, is just typical of someone brainwashed by society and the media's perception of attractive. I feel all the dumber just having replied to the ignorance flowing out of your mouth. If you think every girl should look like Christina and Britney, your too shallow to even bother hurting your brain trying to explain life to you.

Someday, you'll grow up and have an awakening as to the reality of others around you. Oh, but wait I guess the world is revolving around you right now so never mind. Enjoy your little world while it lasts.

What am I supposed to wake up to? That a 400 pound woman is sexy? A person's body reflects something about them. Someone who lets their weight get out of control has no respect for others or for themselves.More to the point I have woken up to the fact that lack of exorcise and over eating are a national problem. Why don't you face reality and recognize that obese people are masters of self-deception and look for any excuse to shift the blame away from themselves.


The body is the eye of the soul. A person is manifest through their physicality.Finally, your stupid comment about the media brainwashing people is laughable. What should the media portray as an ideal...someone who is so grossly overweight that they cannot walk on their own?

Like I said boy, some people don't choose to be fat. Not all, but SOME allow themselves to become obese. And it's becoming more of a problem now. I didn't disagree with that. But NOT ALL people have a choice. You judging a large person as "letting themselves go" at first glance, is shallow, and typical of little brats like you. You don't know them or their situation. You are an idiot, as you've made obvious with your mindless babble. I'm done trying to show you any truth behind your nonsense. Good luck in life little boy.

if some one cant see someone for who they are inside they are shallow hey i am over weight not because i wake up in the mornings and say wow i love this fat around my waist its not like that. i will give it to you that some people just let them selfes go but thats because they dont have the motivation. i am a very active person but it never seems to help with weight loss. but if u come on here and complain about how someone looks just think what if u were that person.

I always hate seeing this kind of stuff.

There are a few people out there that don't have a choice.

I'm one of them.

I'm seeing specialists, and continue to have blood work done. They think it could be one thing...or maybe it's another. They want to test for things again, just in case....you get the picture. I probably eat better and work out more than people who are in fantastic shape...and yet I remain quite large. (170+ lbs on a 5'3" frame is...pretty harsh.)

Reading this kind of stuff makes me ill. I have a severe phobia of needles...yet I have to undergo tons of blood tests. I spend a lot of spare time making the right meals and working out. Oh - and the same thing that makes me fat...makes me infertile. I will never have children.

And yet people like the thread starter will look at me and judge me like that, when I probably mind my health and appearance more than they do.

Oh - and even though I'm large, I'm not afraid to post my picture. Quite frankly, though I may not be attractive, I've got nothing to hide.

i agree with you on one point , grossly obese peope that wear skimpy clothing disgust me . now as far as your other points ... im a big guy 6' 295# . i ws thin all my life then i lost my knee and quit smoking at about the same time . i didnt start grossly overeating , i have alwasy eaten alot . but i used to also participate in all kinds of sports and now i was forbidden to so much as climb a flight of stairs . within the next 3 years i gained 100 pounds . now you may say 295 ! thats as big as a house ! heh , most people that look at me would guess my weight at closer to 220 . i may be big , but im not flabby . the biggest down fall is now peopel look at me and expect me to be as strong as i have alwasy been . i liked it better when peopel grossly underestimated me . thats my 2 cents worth

OK, I am going to need to sound off a bit on this one. My little brother is 6ft4 and called about 3 christmases ago to brag he finally got over 150 lbs. My little sister is 5ft8 and 115 lbs and can eat whatever she wants. She has worked in a fast food restaurant since high school and eats a lot of fast food, but never gains weight. Meanwhile, I am 5ft6 and abuot 150 lbs. I eat healthier than my sister, yet since the age of 15/16 I have struggled with my weight. I have been as light as 120 lbs, but when I wighed that little people were fussing at me to eat more or go to the doctor because I looked ill. The same thing happened during my tour in Iraq, when I went down to at least 125 lbs and came back looking similar to a holocaust survivor. I just don't look right below 135 lbs because of my body structure: wide hips and large breasts. At 150 lbs I eat better and mind my diet much more than I did at 120 lbs, so it is not always a matter of willpower or attention to detail as some posters have suggested.

Now here's an interesting twist: prior to being deployed I was riding the "overweight" line on purpose! Yes, I purposely went up to 160 lbs, 25 lbs over my "ideal" weight for the simply reason I know I drop weight fast in field conditions. I even called it "deployment insurance" and my sgts laughed at that idea until about 6 weeks in the sandbox when they saw me again and saw how much weight I had already dropped. A lot of people dropped weight over there, including those who didn't have the pounds to lose.

Now, since the division got back early this year, there has been a "problem" with overweight soldiers. Are you aware that large weight loss will trigger a cellular response to gain weight faster and keep it on longer no matter what because the body went into a "depravation" mode? Apply that theory to all of these people who do these unhealthy fad and crash diets. If you talk to alot of these people who are overweight and/or obese, you'll hear how they have tried diet after diet, only to gain the weight back AND THEN SOME when they switched to a "maintenance" diet. After so many diets, the body will simply refuse to lose the weight. For some reason medical and health specialists disregarded that for years, and only recently has it started to get attention in publicized studies.

As for J Tyler's comment about fat WOMEN who are out walking around...all the power to them! They are out moving around trying to get some exercise. Should they stay in their rooms until dark so they aren't seen and don't offend him? No, let them get out, walk around, then jog if their knees are able to take it, then maybe even run later. It all starts somewhere. As for how the fat women dress, they have every right to dress up as he does. I am not fat, nor will I ever be thin again, but I dress to suit myself and my mood. If I want to put on a miniskirt and midriff top, I will. If you don't want to look at me when I dress up, that is fine with me. I probably wouldn't spare you a second glance either, as I would consider you "too young" and "still a kid" probably too young to buy me a drink legally Besides that, I prefer my men to do their thinking above the shoulders most of the time.

I just came across this thread, and I must say I was somewhat appaled at the choice of wording the young man who started this used.
Yes I am a large woman, I am 41 years old and have given birth 5 times. No that is no excuse however. The fact that my entire maternal side of the family have struggled with obesity, for 4 to 5 generations is a major factor.
We have very slow metabolisims, and the fact that we have all tried to conform to "normal" peoples ideas of what we should look like we have dieted and dieted some of us to death, has in turn caused our metabolisms to decline even to a point of not really working at all.
I have done alot of exercising and am an active person, I am very carefull of my eating habits however I remain at the same weight give or take 5 lbs. I have done so for 20 some odd years.
As for the way "these" people dress I say " if you are big dress big" do not try to wear something designed for a 110 lb person. Some clothing is just not designed to be made in a 3x. Just because the store sells it does not mean you or I should wear it.
You CAN dress for your size and feel comfortable, sexy, professional, sporty, or what ever you are looking for, you can show your "style" without showing your A**. and if it is as big as mine then believe me the world is not ready to see that. LOL
Look at others beyond the outer covering, you will usually be happy you did.

I just saw this thread and yes I am overweight. So, anyone who doesn't like it can kiss my generous ***

At the risk of getting a second warning point to add to my collection of one, I think this is the stupidest, most shortsighted, least intelligent, most tactless comment I have seen on here for a while.
With that kind of attitude, any really sexy woman would run screaming to get away from Mr. Tyler.

Sexiness, by the way, is not directly related to size. I have never had ANYONE express dissatisfaction when *I* got through with them.

OK, I'm finished for now......
