People who are very overweight seem to be allergic to any kind of discomfort. Kind of like those tumbler kids who can not stand anything that makes them slightly uncomfortable. A noticeable overlap between the two.

NomChompsky posted:a normal healthy person who lives a regular lifespan will consume about the same amount of healthcare particularly when they get old the difference is obese people tend to die earlier and the lifetime healthcare costs get compounded by that This is true, but more often than not, the gentle approach only works when it's coming from close friends and family; anyone else and it's through one ear and out the other. Shaming probably only gives a similar reaction. Besides, people almost always gravitate to the path of least resistance. I think what really matters is getting a person to look inside and finally hit whatever proverbial wall gets them to finally say "Ok, enough is enough. I want to change, and this time I mean it!" It's all a question of how to get someone to that point.

This, this, this, etc. Trying to combat bad eating habits with extreme exercise can be very off putting to people that don't really understand weight management. You gotta work out like you are training to be in the Olympics to negate and overcome a poo poo diet. Barring a serious preexisting medical condition, you won't die from going a little hungry now and then. But nope, STARVATION MODE! GOTTA AVOID THAT, *munch*.

henpod posted:I was fat as a teenager, very fat. I sorted myself out and now am healthy and look alright. That's why I don't have much sympathy for really fat people as it does take discipline. Sure, mental illness and despair make it difficult to take action for some, but a lot are just lazy and in denial that they are unhappy. Always good.

NomChompsky posted:people who used to be fat and aren't anymore generally are the ones who are the most vocally hateful toward currently fat people because they now can poo poo on someone who was just like them and it's socially acceptable and also because they just fling all that self hatred they had at that person which is kind of hilarious and far more pathetic than someone who is fat imo It usually sounds more like their angry because they KNOW the excuses are bullshit, and even admit as such.

runupon cracker posted:Yeah, formerly fat person here. I think it has a lot to do with why the person lost weight to begin with. I think a lot of people who lose weight don't like themselves, and think that if they lose weight they will suddenly like themselves again. Then, when they become skinny and still don't like themselves, it causes cognitive dissonance and they project their self-loathing onto what they used to be. Seriously though, this is why it is so important that the public as a whole needs more education on both basic nutrition and the mechanics of weight management. And us Americans are usually pretty miserable on average, so better mental health and awareness as well.

If you ain't got the 'beetus, or some tricky preexisting medical condition, you could go about 48 hours with only water without any harm while taking a good chunk of calories out of your body. Even the hunger isn't that bad after the 18+ hour mark. Just remember to eat sensibly on the other days. It wouldn't hurt to take a multivitamin with a glass of milk each day to make sure you're not COMPLETELY devoid of nutrients.

runupon cracker posted:fasting is a great way to lose weight if you don't mind losing muscle while you're doing it If you are exercising, specifically strength training, and getting an adequate amount of protein, muscle loss should be minimal. Especially if we are just talking 2 days tops. You shouldn't experience any kind cataclysmic break down or whatever from that. Not a crazy amount of protein, just enough so you aren't totally deprived. Might not count as a true fast I guess, but if calories are kept relatively low your weight loss will be pretty quick.

lazorexplosion posted:Getting obese is super easy because all you need to do is eat a bit more than your required calorie intake for a few years and you'll get there without even thinking about it, losing weight is pretty easy because all you need to do is eat a bit less that your required calorie intake for a few years and you'll get there pretty easily too. For someone very obese who's probably got other health issues going on, I don't recommend that at all. My fault for not specifying that.
