Was talking to an obese friend and when the subject of his weight came up, he gave me the "I get stressed and I eat" excuse. It's a versatile excuse as it can always be used and it turns the perp into a victim.
I told him everyone has stress and that he's gonna have stress his whole life, but he came back with studies about stress levels and overeating.
The truth is that he's a "gourmand," the type who watches the cooking channel and always talks about food and restaurants. The bottom line is that he's fat bacause he loves to eat.
Is there any hope for people like this?

There's no hope in fat. Severe ties immediately
-
why the hate?
if he's a good cook ask him to prepare something for you and your wife
-
Break his wife's hip.
-
hm usualy stress makes you like not feeling hungry.
its all just excuses.
fatness comes from long term permanent glutonic diet habbits.
x2
when i go through a strong stress i don't even care about food
-
I do not think its an excuse. When I get stressed out I DONT eat. So its possible that people may overeat when stressed out.
The excuse is not, "I eat when I am stressed out." The excuse is, "I know I eat a lot when I get stressed out, I just dont want to figure out how to change that behavior and work around it."

I can't stand the fats of the earth....they disgust me.

if he's a good cook ask him to prepare something for you and your wife

Most people rely on something when stressed but there's way better options out there than food. Sex, cigarettes, drugs and alcohol are far better options.

safety fat.

He is correct. There different types of stress that the body reacts to. It's how you handle the stress. Before anyone starts with "His lack of willpower is sickening" although thats a huge factor, there are still a lot of reasons of why people are overweight or Obese.

Horseshit. Some people can't help it.

Maybe in some exceptional cases eg those with medical problems.
99.9% of fat fucks just need to eat less and move more.

relative wealthyness of society fat
True, but it's also a Basile meme. ;D
-
Lazy, self indulgent nation.

A little exercise would alliviate the stress.

ahhah
We should be using this one more often. ;D

point blank, people don't want to change their behaviors, but they want the body..which is why that stomach stapling/lap band surgery is becoming popular. People want that magic pill and are too lazy/hard headed to change their eating behaviors and to be active. Hell, it even costs less than the surgery!

I'm sure you've had experience with clients giving you this excuse. So, your opinion is appreciated, but, if he knows the problem, doesn't it still come down totally to willpower? Just because you eat when you're stressed doesn't mean you HAVE to do so.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but...
Extreme stress makes you not hungry, and just a want to sleep feeling ...
Plus...
Exercise lowers stress levels and increases appetite, while making one look good.
People and their justifications... ;)
Men seem to get stressed and stop eating, women get stressed and comfort eat.
Seems to be the way

Yup, changing behavior is very difficult. Surgery is easier.

Almost reminds me of that Ronnie Coleman quote...
Everyone wanna be a bodybuilder, but no one wanna lift the heavy weights!
Or something like that...
;D
Ah, the Ronnie quotes, Just like anabalochalo.
Jeez what a lightweight, the mask has slipped already.

You should fit right in then. ;)

No tits and a fat ass happens near 30 unless a girl trains.

This does not, in any way, excuse his crimes against the visual and olfactory spectrum.

I just sit in a chair and drink Diet Dr. Pepper when stressed or call up a whore.

Maybe that could explain why some men do this as well. Low test count, or a higher estrogen levels.

Ha! That's the first thought that came to mind when I read that post as well.

He finally found out what it's like "being a black man in America" ::)

At a certain point the task of losing weight becomes so daunting people just give up. I feel for them but you have to keep it real. Overweight people constantly underestimate the amount of food they eat. I repeatedly hear from my fat relatives that they barely eat but watch them at a family BBQ and you quickly realize this is not true.

that's an excellent strategy, expecially the second part!

Why don't you tell him the truth and see his reaction? If he vigorously deny it, just give up. But if he slightly agree, there is a hope and you might need to help him out and support him to start working out.

Been there. Done that. I'm going with giving up. The older I get, the less I believe anyone can influence the behavior of anyone else.

haha@"gourmand" ;D
Yes, it's a euphemism for "Fat fvck who can't stop thinking about food for more than two minutes."
-

Yes this problem needs a just/thorough/rapid solution.

Yes this problem needs a just/thorough/rapid solution.
There needs to be a state where no man above 15% and no woman above 20% bf is allowed in.
-
20% on women is fairly low actually but yes your point is a good one.
