Their choice. Wanna be fat? It’s okay you can be fat. Don’t want to be fat but you are still fat? Well it is often what happens.
Does this sound reasonable in any way? It’s really hard to formulate simpler sentences with altered brain by chemistry 🧾
I guess my point is that someone being fat doesn’t involve me in any way or affects me negatively. Like it makes me feel better actually if anything
Because if everyone was fit then it would be nothing special. It would be not an accomplishment at all if you could just take a pill and become fit or smh.
No it requires some special attitude and willpower. Focus, dedication, concentration. The kind of which is required for quitting cigarettes cold turkey and that is another challenge under my belt sorry for boasting a little but I like such things. I like quitting things randomly and feeling the pangs of hunger for that addiction and yet stopping it. It is satisfying to do and a source of certain sense of worth. I don’t even feel hunger for vodka anymore though I must admit that it will never stop to be seen by me as a miraculous substance and a liquid ambrosia
Quitting alcohol is strange in this way that it never stops being alluring but you get used to denying this allure just because of your sheer force of will. The more you deny yourself the stronger your willpower
Sort of nitpicky but obesity does affect you in aggregate because of increased burden on the healthcare system that is more or less subsidized by healthier folks. It's never really better to have more people subjecting themselves to avoidable health problems than otherwise.
Maybe so but I am not of such mindset that everything I do is dictated by the wellbeing of the collective
If I want do drugs or drink booze I am going to do it. pay up
Truth to be said my taxes are set up in such a way that they are maybe 1/5 of usual, some pennies because officially I am a farmer for all legal intents and purposes
Apparently I grow some wheat or something, never seen it but hey
