The fats are angry that scientists say not being fat makes you live longer

Quote of the day:

“Simple” and “slimming down to a healthy weight” don’t go together for most obese Americans

Have they tried eating less?

Or... the root causes of type 2 diabetes also result in weight gain.

I'm sure that's how it works in the vast majority of cases.

Also, yo-yo dieting can actually make diabetes worse, so trying to lose weight and gaining it back over and over is actually worse for a diabetic than never losing any weight.

:marseyakshually: I'm healthier by not trying to lose weight at all

That is some high-calorie coping in that comment section, and in /r/science of all places which is usually very thoroughly :marseyjanny:'d. Great find.

Yoyoing is also because people don't understand that you have to permanently make changes to your diet. Yes it will suck because your idea of full is permanently thrown off, but you cannot go back to how you were eating before and expect to stay at the same weight.

I honestly don't understand how it even happens. When I started eating less, my previous idea of "moderately hungry" became content, and what would have been"full" made me feel sick.

You should check out the intuitive eating subreddit. It’s full of fatties that also eat intuitively.

Yep. Except it's feeling sleepy and like shit all the time because 1) they're always eating and 2) obesity fricks every other bod system up

I still want to eat like a fat butt but it's better feeling that than being fat.
