> science is wrong when I don’t like the result

>I didn't read this but I disagree with it

>highline.huffingtonpost.com/articles/en/everything-you-know-about-obesity-is-wrong/

my friend summarized the article badly, ive read more of the article and it seems slightly better than his horrible summary, just seems like doctors fat shame patients and that doesn't help them or something. i just opened it and the first 10 paragraphs are about the 16th century

THIS ARTICLE IS ACTUALLY PRETTY GOOD SO FAR

" As early as 1969, research showed that losing just 3 percent of your body weight resulted in a 17 percent slowdown in your metabolism—a body-wide starvation response that blasts you with hunger hormones and drops your internal temperature until you rise back to your highest weight."

" For 60 years, doctors and researchers have known two things that could have improved, or even saved, millions of lives. The first is that diets do not work. Not just paleo or Atkins or Weight Watchers or Goop, but all diets. "

WELP

"Keeping weight off means fighting your body’s energy-regulation system and battling hunger all day, every day, for the rest of your life."

WHY BOTHER EVEN TRYING

"Diets" as usually understood (caloric restriction) are a meme. Get your calories, but do intermittent fasting & keto. Not only will you burn fat, you'll bulk up by raising growth hormone levels.

American genes cause fatness. FACT.

IT'S OK TO BE AMERICAN (FAT)

>but do intermittent fasting & keto.
If you are overweight you don't have to do either. You will lose fat like it's nothing just by eating less. Zero need to overcomplicate your life with such restrictive habits.

>“It’s always hidden,” she says. “I buy a package of ice cream, then eat it all. Then I have to go to the store to buy it again. For a week my family thinks there’s a thing of ice cream in the fridge—but it’s actually five different ones.”

LOL!!!

the irony, the exact next line as well:

>This is how fat-shaming works: It is visible and invisible, public and private, hidden and everywhere at the same time.

DONT EAT 5 TUBS OF ICECREAM HOLY SHIT

Did you read the article?

It's women who are mistaking healthy with looks

Healthy is about fitness. If people are left on their own in a jungle and they die because they're too fucking fat and dehydrate after 2 miles of walking and can't make it out alive because they're too slow and heavy than the only reason they're alive is because society provides them a safe environment to exist and be fat in - if you took away all comformities, cashiers, shops, cars, scooters they'd die a miserable death.

Is the growth hormone thing for real? Like is it always elevated or are these just pulses?

The article has a point.

To put it shortly:
>chubby =/= bad (which is true)
>most of diets suck (true)
>there are no good treatments to lose weight without surgery/extended fasting
>MOST important: doctors fail patients to live with their weight, letting them sink into depression and risking wording it

This said, the article won't change anything as most of dietologists suck at helping to fix lifestyles of fat people, asking the to add stressful diets on top of stressful jobs in usual scenario.

Who cares. Healthy or unhealthy fat people are gross.

Obesity rates are just a barometer of general degeneracy.
The more obese a country, the more degenerate it is.
Obesity is nothing more than simply being a slave to your immediate desires opposed to your long-term goals.

>DONT EAT 5 TUBS OF ICECREAM HOLY SHIT
This. Every slim person knows most fatties are fucking pigs. The don't need to diet. Just eat like a fucking normal person for a while.

They're full of shit.
t. formerly obese

You're wrong.
Historically, fat people were always associated with wealth and respect as they had means to get by which surpassed those of an average skinny peasant.
Nowadays, obesity is a result of free market filling people so that even poorest could buy food. It's bad, but in the end it is better than starvation.

It's incredible that people get paid to pump out such inflated garbage. It's so long and stupid. I'd bet that most of the husk people that shared/agreed with this article didn't read it either.

Fat people are unhealthy. That's the bottom line. It's really not that hard to swallow.

>17 percent slowdown in your metabolism
What metabolism? Which one? Where?
"Metabolism" basically means "the sum of all chemical reactions within your body"
Are they referring to anabolic metabolism? Specific processes that uptake or favor certain macromolecules?
Oh right, they don't fucking know what they're talking about.

Why would I? I hope you didn't.

They are referring to basal metabolic rate.

They are right though, metabolism does slow down unless you diet properly and don't support it.
The problem of many 89iqdiets is that they fail in long-term or are too stressing for the people trying them.

The article begins with a lie.
>From the 16th century to the 19th, scurvy killed around 2 million sailors, more than warfare, shipwrecks and syphilis combined.

cause huff writers are fat

LOL

Can we remove weight related health issues from social healthcare coverage then? Why did shaming bad behaviour become a bad thing?

>17% slowdown of your metabolism
>increase in hunger hormones
>lower internal body temperature
Oh hey, all the markers of caloric restriction.
>link it to body weight
This ham planet is so dense shes got an event horizon.

Indeed. The idea is that fatties are mentally weaker and talking down on them makes the core problem worse

YASSSS

SLAY QUEENS

BIG BEAUTIFUL AND HEALTHY

FUCK DRUMPF

>an extreme minority of fatties are healthy, all fatties say they're healthy
>an extreme minority of darkies are honest, all niggers say they dindu nuffin
how is this news?

Why do other people deserve healthcare they didnt pay for?

I just made an appointment with a neurologist. The first 6 arent taking new patients and this one happend to have a free one in 8 months

Fat people do deserve the service they worked for and nothing else, just like every other person. The issue is marxism and socialism as always

Also eat less sugar and carbs though. Our diets in america are waaay too carb heavy. Carb cereal for breakfast, or carb toast and bagels. Bread for sandwiches at lunch, shitty bread usually at that. And throw in all the soda and sugary snacks and its a recipe for heart disease and obesity. LEss carbs, more animal fats and proteins.

For any fat anons looking to lose weight.

over fed and mal nourished.

>story by
>story

this article is some kind of record for most consecutive emotional arguments made in a single document

The problem is fat people have much higher appetites and get addicted to food easily

Low carb diets help a lot in curbing their appetite

>better than starvation.
(checks flag) He would know.
CHECKED!

People in medieval times and antiquity ate almost exclusively bread and fuck all meat. You have to go back to pre-agriculture to find a time where carbs weren't the vast majority of our diets.

>what is sugar

They also didn't have cars or drive thru McDonalds or 780 calorie ice cappucinos.

I study cardio vascular biophysics. this is literally impossible.

IT'S ALL BULLSHIT

You know how you get disgusted when you see a morbidly obese person? That's your body warning you that person is sick. It's the same response you'd have if you saw a leper.

please elaborate, i want a good clear takedown of this bullshit

I mean it's sort of true that modern medicine will keep you alive almost as long whether you're a small fat or at a normal weight.

Lifestyle changes that result in successful weight management are absolutely possible, it's just that Jews don't want you to be healthy so they'll fuck you at every turn to drain your wallet.

If there won't be social security when I'm old and the country will become third world why should I live healthy just to see more decline instead of just enjoying the now? Anyone born after 1975 is doomed to live in Mad Max if they get old.

Somehow, I am the fattest man in my medical school class, and I weigh 185 at 5 foot 10 inches. It's almost like if you are about your health you can keep the weight off...

The problem is how much sugar we put into everything. Fat, carbs, and protein are all good in moderation. Copious amounts of sucrose are bad. Copious amounts of HFCS is terrible.
