PM, Fat people will never win, its just the way it is. Honestly they lack any discipline, they eat themselves to a heart attack and i mean that literally, they know about heart disease, liver problems etc yet they keep eating.
I train 4 days a week, i know if i took steroids there will be side effects,so i dont do it.
Not every fat person is fat solely because they have no discipline. If getting fit were easy or even possible for all people, there would be far fewer people in the world who are not fit.
A friend of mine was diagnosed with MS about twenty years ago. Today, because of her disease she gets around in a motorized chair. When I first met her, she was mobile and fit looking. Today she is not fit by any standard and somewhat fat. It wouldn't surprise me if strangers seeing her get around in her chair, don't come to the wrong conclusion that she is in this situation because she is overweight. I know this to be true, because I have seen large people in motorized chairs and thought this very thought. It is called stereotyping. We all do it. That does not make it right.
My wife will soon be 70 years old. She has congestive heart failure and uses oxygen all the time. She got gestational type II diabetes when she was pregnant with our daughter nearly 40 years ago. She was an active and involved person who ignored her illness largely because she is so selfless. She also developed a thyroid condition decades ago. Her kidneys are failing. Often when we go shopping, she will use one of the motorized chairs at the store mainly because lugging around her oxygen tank is too taxing. Although she isn't particularly large, she is hardly fit looking. I've noticed that while many people are very kind to her, there are some who shoot her an annoyed look....passing judgment, while not knowing anything about her or her poor health, which by-the-way is not of her making.
I already mentioned my former co-worker and friend who has been obese since childhood. What strangers who judge him don't know about him is that he isn't happy being large. If he had the capacity to change this, I know he would. To think someone being fat is simply always the result of them having no will power is plain ignorant. To pick on them for being fat is simply cruel.
