I do not have any ‘fat friends’ only ‘pathetic fat friends’. Why would I say that ? Not to be unkind but because I find that they fail to comprehend that “You are what you eat”
Unfortunately too many people eat only to satisfy their taste buds whereas eating should only be to gain the necessary nourishment to survive healthily for today. It is almost appalling the amount of food ingested by most North Americans on a daily basis, sadly believing they might die if they go hungry.
They will not die if they choose to go hungry. They might die if they do not have food to eat but choosing not to eat the wrong food or choosing to eat only sufficient for nourishment will ensure that your body is and stays lean.
It is sad for me to hear people make excuses for being fat. If they choose to eat the wrong things or over-eat or are lazy then they choose to be fat and then should ‘Claim it’ not make excuses for it and certainly not be proud of it unless, perhaps, they are Sumari Fighters but even then it is questionable, to me because I am convinced they could wrestle without so much fat. However, they then must accept the criticism which comes from people who cannot help but see them as they are ‘fat’ just as people see me ‘thin’ and who might well criticize me for that ‘condition’ . We as humans must learn to take responsibility for our own actions and not look for excuses. That is not to say that sometimes ‘things’ are not beyond our control because sometimes they are but most times they are not and we must make the right choices. It is asinine not to expect people to make judgements , whether their judgement is justified is another matter but that is a subject for another day.
