I say that all the time. People look at an obese person and thinks “that’s disgusting yiu should be ashamed” and the same person will look at a anorexic and think “oh poor girl hope she can recover from her eating disorder”
They are both eating disorders!
Let’s try to go pass our biases and see obesity for what it is, a eating disorder, not with disgust or shame.
The problem is people spent years trying to push a narrative that fat people are beautiful and we all need to love and worship how amazing it is.
No one ever says that shit about a meth head.
You took this to a whole other discussion. Yes there are some people that think fat “should be beautiful” and those people are fooling thenselfs more than the others.
But this is not the majority a neither has been pushed “for years”. This began with the woker culture trying to humanize fat people exactly because of how bad people are treated just because they are fat. But I can tell you I don’t know any fat person that thinks like that. Like most (not all) very skinny people have some eatibg disorder, most (not all) obese peoole have some eating disorder, this can be in consequence of depression, addictive personality or even in conquencence of medication that they need
That is why is so important to no judge someone without knowing why they are in this situation.
You’re telling on yourself here.
At least he knows what his biases are
What am I telling exactly?!
Apparently overeating/obesity has been categorized as a chronic disease since 2013. I was just talking to a weight management doctor who was explaining that there’s actually hormonal responses that differ person to person that play a huge role.
That’s what happened to me. I’m overweight myself and my doctor is a wheight expert too and In my case I was able to change my life with depression treatment but also with some hormonal replacement.
So remove sugar, oil and salt from the diet? That sounds to easy.
Seriously, that’s a horrible ending, with no advice on how that might be feasible.
And it sounds worse to me than just being overweight and eventually getting diabetes and dying early.
I think that what you will realize if you do it is that other tastes become far more pronounced and you start to enjoy the medley of tastes that are inherent in food. And feeling better all of the time is a far bigger reward than a salty, sweet, oily taste just some of the time. At least that’s how it’s been in my life as I’ve improved on this continuum.
Yeah I was like… And end up with an entirely different set of health issues?? These things are necessary for a healthy diet
Not to mention whether it’s even possible to avoid sugars, fats, and salt.
It isn’t.
I have struggled with weight my entire life and it’s very much San addiction and not something you can just fix or stop doing.

Important to note that the doctor is a chiropractic doctor, a practice based in pseudoscience, not a medical doctor.
