To distrust obese young people

frozentadpole, your insecurities are showing.

It's a lot of work and effort to eat so much and to maintain and gain that much weight. It AIN'T genetic, unless your studies can prove that the psychiatric component is genetic.

These people are disgusting and increasing healthcare costs for all of us. And instead of addressing their problems...lack of exercise, intake of too many calories...they have people aiding them and giving them a shoulder to cry on.

The Scooter Store...don't walk and lose weight...get a tax-payer funded electric scooter.

Sue the airlines if they want you to buy two seats because of your fat ass.

Obesity is NOT a disability. But having to take care of these fat monsters while their lounging in ICU beds CREATES disability for the poor nurses who have to turn them and lift them.

Don't cater to deviant behaviour. Acknowledge it and address it.

I gained weight at 19-20 by having such a busy school schedule. My days started at 6 and ended at midnight. Yes, i was sitting on my ass, but I was sitting on it studying physics, Chem, and calculus.
Working hard can cause weight gain too. I care more about my intelligence than my looks. More people should, really.

People who are fat suffer tremendous amounts of shame and self-loathing...they feel very self-conscious and the hell they go through living in a world full of trim and fit people is probably more than you can imagine. So grant them your condolences if nothing else. Have some respect for their feelings; they are human just like you and cry when they feel bad. They are not all a bunch of jerks; in fact, quite a few of them are probably cooler than you are, with your one-dimensional mindframe.

ever seen obese people at a restaurant XD if you do check if there salting their child XD :3 XP ♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪

binge eating disorder..my sister has it and she hates it, shes been in and out of therapy for it for 4 years, and shes really depressed. and yes, obese. but im proud of her for trying to stop her compulsive binging and trying to get her life under control.

People like you are why they are so angry. They clearly have emotional issues and you are feeding into their self hatred. No, it's not your job to solve their problems and some people are sensitive. But if you want to live in a world where people hate for no reason, continue to do the same. However be prepared for how it comes back to you.

kkkkkk....

YES, health problems cause weight gain. In my oppinion and in my knowledge there's no direct link between obesity and genetics but there definately are heridatry diseases that cause weight gain.

Umm okay this comment is to whipit don't try and tell me that there is not a genetic code I am eighteen years old five foot eight and i weight two hundred and seventeen pounds. I excersise daily which is cardio weights running outside or biking I do it anywhere from one to five hours a day. I eat chicken and fish no red meat salads once sometimes even three times a day and I do bot have a thyroid problem. Try explaining that

i have respect for fat people as much as skinny people and more than vain people. i mean obviously fat is just excess weight and that's not that big of a deal. But obesity is not usually related to genetics at all. its very rare for it to be the result of a pituitary issue. there are other serious health problems that can cause weight gain like diabetes and hypertension. but there's just laziness too. i think obesity is a pretty strong indication of a lack of self control and habituation. i don't empathize with that; its everyone's burden. in young people with no health problems its more likely that the cause is the result- lack of self control leads to excess. and people without self control usually suck in a lot of ways.

Frozentadpole sure isn't Twiggy is he? Or she?

Genetics won't make you lift a fork or put one down.

You voted for Obama too.

Look it up, it has been proven that weight is related to genetics and epigenetics,you can type it in google and see for yourself denying it just proves that your stupid and to danm lazy to even pretend to be halfway inteligent.

frozenanpole, its NOT proven at all and its fucking stupid to blame obesity on genetics. Thats even weaker than blaming obesity on a drugs or illness.

where the hell is your compassion they have a problem it's not like they woke up one morning and decided they wanted to be obese, there is something seriously wrong with you, and for your information genetics does affect you body weight it has been scientifically proven, if you passed ninth grade biology you'd know that

And my expierienced doctor told me that and I have an amazing diet

What is the deal with people making judgements about other people? Humans need to be more tolerant of each other. Fat, skinny, asshole, sweet, it does not matter if you are tolerant and accepting of people. The world would be a much better place if we did not hate or judge people that have not done anything morally wrong (killed somebody, for example). If you do not like fat people, then don't talk to them; don't focus on writing about how they do not deserve your trust. That is not normal.

First weight is affected by genetics and epigenetics it's been proven, if you don't believe me than look it up. Second you can't judge someone based on their weight you have absolutly no idea why they are the way they are, what your doing is stereotyping it would be the same as saying all skiny people are control freaks.and the most likly reason their rude is that they we're made fun.because if your diffrent your bullied and picked on and as a defense mechanism they became mean to avoid being hurt more than they already were. It may not be right but it happens all the time regardless of who you are.

You do know that your genes contribute to your body weight right? If someones parents are over weight then their offspring will be prone to gaining excese amounts of fat and can have a harder time at lossing weight and The reason most of the obese people you've met are rude is probly because they've had to deal with being made fun of their entire life, how about you actualy get to know someone before you judge them and maybe you'll have a diffrent opinion about them.

Maybe they got to be ***holes because it's their defense mechanism. They could have been bullied. That's how young people cope. Adults probably also.
