If You Weren't Obese Young, Why Accept It Now?

I don't look at it as maintaining vanity, but it's been known that obesity isn't healthy for decades. As a person gets larger and larger, don't they see the changes on the outside, and that it's harder to walk up hills, carry stuff farther, and the expense of changing clothes before they properly wear out, or go out of style? (i.e. I know that many have to buy new pants because the friction in the thighs wear out the upper part of the inseams) Not to mention the friction of those legs rubbing against each other changed the color of the skin. Or thyroid changes and other related, avoidable diseases occur. Why let those things happen to you?

I'm bringing this up because of some I know, and how the comedienne Mo'nique has lost weight for "health reasons" but she used to berate "skinny" people.

    Well don't people realize that black people have the highest high school dropout rate and criminal actions? Don't people realize that the bible specifically states homosexuality is wrong and that's the reason we don't except homosexuals. Don't people realize Obama has ruined and changed everything in America only to make it worse? .

    Source(s): The answer is the same for all these questions: Of course people realize this stuff, but its pretty damn apparent that no matter where you go, you have to accept anything in this world nowadays because people are to ignorant to keep society how it used to be.

    The problem is not *fat* but lack of proper exercise. People were not designed to spend 8-10 hours a day in a cube, And at 65 I just can't do the things I used to, and despite the charts no one could look at this 5-10 210 frame of me and call me fat.
