Im an emotional eater, and the cravings are so intense it really is an addiction. I also wonder as I see bigger people if they're on meds that make them gain weight, because I understand that too.
Sometimes they don't, though. Sometimes there's only one viable medication for a patient, either because no other safe options exist for their condition or because the patient hasn't responded well to other treatments. It's not necessarily the doctor's fault, since physicians don't have the power to make alternative medications get discovered faster. Sometimes gaining weight is a necessary sacrifice.
Well it shouldn't be to an asinine amount because that puts pressure on society to tolerate such nonsense but doctors need to find alternative therapies because we lived as human beings for thousands of years without weighing over 300 pounds.
is it normal not to feel sorry for fat people?

Medications that cause weight gain should have an alternative to them if it causes this issue, doctors know better than this.

What? Cures don't just present themselves in the face of intolerance.
