Obiesety Pisses Me Off to No End....

[Phil]

See its threads like this that make me despise sports.
I havent played a real school sport in 3 years because the coaches hate me, and they make me feel worthless.
Just because you'd rather play a video game rather than play a sport doesnt make you lazy
It means that you value video games over something that makes you feel like complete and total crap.
I'm not good at sports, and it isnt beause I don't try. I tried. Really hard. And ya know what, I didn't make the team this year when I decided to give it another shot. Ya know why? I honestly can't tell you. I played just as well as the other guys and better than some and they still even made the team. So please dont come in here with your "sports good tv bad" agenda. I dont need it.

Oh and by the way- maybe some people that are fat are actually trying to get slimmer and have a bad metabolism problem. Way to judge everybody off of a few people you know.

I'm starting to wonder if you're serious or not JaytodaP...either way I think you're hilarious.

Hey, no one blames you for that. I feel the same way. I'm complete crap at sports, and I hate doing them too. I've been insulted before, and I know it's not the greatest feeling in the world. But I've found other things to do, and that helped when I needed it. Sometimes just eating better does the trick. Play all the video games you like! I know I do.

but i like to play a nice game of footy cricket and i try to run though i exhaust easilly but it doesnt stop me from having a good time.

You think people don't realize obesity is a problem? Of course they do. But saying it pisses you off really isn't going to help anybody. If they're a close friend or in your immediate family, perhaps it's appropriate to say "I'm really worried about how overweight you are. How about <insert advice here>." But it's ultimately someone's life choice. We can't tell everyone to stop smoking, and we can't tell people to stop eating fatty foods. It's the American way of life (not to say obesity is only a problem im America, but it's definitely huge here), and many people value the freedom to stuff themselves.

I know that and respect those people. I used to be fat. But I noticed and dropped ten pounds and now I'm average. I'm not saying you have to be the world class athlete; I got cut from the soccer team, and the football team, so now I play pickup games with my friends who actually want to play. I just hate whan i hear that someone died over obiesety

I was watching the news the other day and some wicked fat lady sued Mcdonalds because she went there every day and ate enough food to fee 5 people. She won the case even though it was her fault, not McDonald's fault. Oh yeah, Our school cant sell fudge rounds, zebra cakes, chips, or gushers anymore because of Child Obiesety.

Should the schools really be selling all that unhealthy crap in the first place? A lot of childhood obesity is the fault of schools who sell nothing but chips, crisps and cheeseburgers. What child is going to choose something healthy like salad or pasta when they have all that unhealthy junk food in front of them? Maybe the schools should stop selling all the unhealthy things and provide things for children that won't cause them to gain wait unnecessarily.

Intresting... But I've got a point for you:

You're being aggressive and there is no need really, just cause YOU think the problem is annoying doesn't mean the people are. Your attacking a fault of human nature and there is no need. Perhaps you should be suggesting a positive way the people who are indeed obese can cope and change, because you assume that they can stop like cold turkey.
An awful lot of obese people are insuecure and they find comfort in food because they can control it. You slagging them off is going to drive this problem deeper, not make it better. It was probably people like YOU that made tghem that way by slagging them off when they were fat "LOOK AT FATSO.Heres an Idea: Put down the fork! HAHAHAHAHA"
Plus, you DO sound like a "proper" American by suggesting people should suffer for their mistakes. People make mistakes, and you going "It's your own fault" solves squit. THEY KNOW IT'S THEIR FAULT. As for the McDonalds suit, that is simple psychology/philosophy about the concept of "self" and how people will always blame others to protect them"selves".

It's like saying:
-Thin people piss me off: "GO EAT YOU STICK"
-Weak people piss me off "GO LIFT SOME WEIGHTS YOU PUSSY"
-Strong people piss me off "GO AND BE NORMAL YOU SAD WEIRDO"
-Lung Cancer paitents piss me off "SHOULD HAVE STOPPED SMOKING YOU WEAK-WILLED FAG-HEAD"

I think you should relax and stop venting your aggressive views. Your views are fine, just the manner you deal with them is arrogant and plain nasty. You're not a reality check, you need the reality check.

(And before you say it: I am not Obese)

Yeah, see, you have to make that effort. I do, and I feel so much better after having a turkey sandwich, a opposed to having what else is there: burritos, fried chicken, cookies, etc. But then that brings me back to what I first said; to amke that effort, you have to re-evaluate yourself, and what's making you so unhappy that you're eating. Take it one step at a time.

Plus you need acceptance. The overweight perosn needs to know that they'll be loved no matter how much weight they gain, whatever. That's a huge part of it, I think.

Of course, this is all assuming that you want to lose weight in the first place.

[Phil]

I know that and respect those people. I used to be fat. But I noticed and dropped ten pounds and now I'm average.

So basically you just told me that you have the right to pull out and catagorize all the overwieght people you know, as if your opinion actually matters. I really wish people would stop judging others based on what they look like or common stereotypes. And please- dont be the person to come back after I say this and be like "lol omg he waz teh judging him! lol!" No. I'm not judging anybody. I'm saying that I'm sick of stereotypes. I'm under the stereotype that I am a looser at school because I suck at sports. Thats why I make friends online like the people here. They're great people, regaurless of how much the weigh. They dont care that I suck at sports. Honestly, if you are going to come in here making accusations at overwieght people, this really may not be the place for you.. and thats just my opinion.

i couldnt be arsed to read more then the first 3 posts. but being fat may not be because of being lazy OR having a bad diet. i far from eat healthily and im not an overly active person either. by all rights i should weigh 20 stone but my metabolism is fantastic and i couldnt put on more weight if i tried (and on top of that i look like i work out on a daily basis) so some-one being over weight means most likley they have a sh*it metabolism and probabley dont eat much more than you

[Craig]

I have the luxury of a high metabolism, so there.

But I don't see anything wrong with wanting to play a computer game on a sunny day, it being a nice day doesn't mean you have to go out, there will be plenty more.

And I sure as hell don't see anything wrong with being overweight, my Mum is, but the thing is every women on her side of the family gains weight real easy, and all the men on her side of the family are like me.

For some people it's hard not to gain weight.

In other words, what the guy above me just said.

[Shoden]

high metabolism here aswell but im slightly underweight im 7 stone and should be about 8-10 XD but i dont care if i was fat i wouldnt be able to do my stunt things
