We treat our material possesions better than we treat ourselves. We have folks who know more about viscosity rating on oil, but no zippo about nutrition. I have obese friends who lost their minds when I gave table food to their dog. He only eat “Snob Mix Dog Food”.
Excuse me for not taking the Richard Simmons approach. While their are medical conditions that make staying lean more difficult than for others, the simple fact for fat america is that they lack:
- knowledge of nutrition
- desire/will power
I know fat people who have diabetes, and have eye sight problems and other health problems associated with obesity. They are eating themselves out of kidneys and eye sight.
A high school friend engaged a diebetic girl who chose to be an obese diabetic and gradually lost her vision to her poor diet.
How powerful is the desire to eat and eat? People are willing to be blind for it…or DEAD.
Sorry, I’m not Oprah…I’m telling it straight. 99% of the reasons people are fat amount to nothing more than cheezey excuses. If you want to be obese - god bless you. If you want to be in shape, and make excuses, don’t cry around me.
