>>10218173As an obese person I do not "feel good" about being fat, the tumblrina lardwhales claiming that BS are young and haven't reaped the consequences of their poor decisions, the woman who originally campaigned that vile agenda died a couple years ago in her mid 30s from heart failure. For myself and many others who became obese the problems were mental, whether it be due to natural mental illness, child abuse, sexual molestation, bullying etc there was a driving factor to our over eating stemming from PTSD. So yes, in almost every case morbid obesity (350lb+) is related to mental illness.
>>10219446 is right on that.
The individuals in the webm posted are not "obese" btw, the classification for whats considered obese is skewed from the perspective of someone whos at a small weight and has an ignorant understanding of actual obesity. Currently as a 400lb male, somebody weighing around 250lb would be considered just fat or chubby depending on their height to me. Real mobility obstructing obesity doesn't start til someone hits around that 350-400lb margin, but to get to that point of immobility you'd have to be purposely lazy while somebody else feeds you, which in all cases leads to people seen on 'my 600 pound life'. Despite being at my heaviest weight at 540lb I could walk 6 miles a day easily from my house to work and back, so that is one thing people criticising obesity get wrong. The people in the video at not yet at that mental & physical sync'd breaking point that is true obesity. At my current weight of 400lb I'm at the gym 4 days a week and continue to walk to work instead of driving saving money on gas in the process lol.
