What do you think about the problem of obesity in America? For me, I think it is so messed up how people keep eating and eating and eating without any form of exercise. I really don't like it when obese people say they want to diet, but then go to McDonalds and order a Large BigMac meal and a diet coke because they are on a diet . . .It just aggravates me how they feel like victims, when in fact they are the ones hurting themselves.

You probably just have a very fast metabolism.

If you're still a kid, then you have a high metabolism, which burns off fat much faster than for an adult. Your metabolism slows down as you get older. Some kids don't have a high metabolism, but most do, which prevents them from getting fat.
If you're an adult... maybe you're just lucky.

If you ask me, obesity is born of weak willed stupidity. If you love Burger King and have a metabolism like cold molasses, then you are responsible for exercising and avoiding being a scourge upon humanity. It is person's own responsibility to take care of themselves, and everyone suffers when they're to lazy get off their ass long enough to exercise. Very few have an excuse to be obese (because of a glandular disorder or whatever) but everyone still manages to come up with excuses for it anyway, and it sickens me.

why does everyone suffer? it is only the person concerned who has to suffer. if there is suffering at all. i know a lot of overweight people who are perfectly fine with themselves.
they know the risks they take and its cool for them.

Fun Fact: Muscle weighs more than fat.

My dad is all muscle and 6'1 and weighs 230.

I got a cousin who is 6'6 and is all muscle and weighs 240.

Don't ever trust the BMI. It's a total joke.
