Obesity is NOT a disease, you can't "catch" obesity it's poor lifestyle choices, Look at any video of the population 40+ years ago and almost NO ONE is obese. I went to the pool today and EVERYONE I saw was obese with the exception of 1 woman who looked pretty fit. I'm 60 and look like a fitness model compared to these people and many are in their early to mid 30s. Lay off the sugar, corn syrup, seed oils and processed carbs, hit the gym and do RESISTANCE training (lift heavy weights) cardio is less effective at weight loss. Learn to do time restrictive eating and do a 24 hour fast every month or so. Or be unhealthy and enjoy limited quality of life and die early.
@@amialal4510Almost nobody was obese 100 years ago. That indicates a systemic issue when almost half the population is obese today. Addictive, calorie-dense food is cheaper than healthier alternatives. Sugar and corn syrup are added to many grocery items unnecessarily. We've structured most of our transportation infrastructure around the car, so people are naturally moving less because walking places is inconvenient or outright dangerous. Some people don't have the time or money to work on improving themselves.
@@6393dude I honestly disagree with the statement, that some ppl don't have the time and money to do something about it. Not putting garbage in your mouth, does not take time.
I agree I'm obese an ppl keep looking for a a miracle cure but a majority of ppl need will power an I'm not saying it easy to gain such a thing its very hard as a bigger person like me say if you never been fat STFU cause you don't know nothing about beating ur self down day after day thinking ur never good enough.
Yes they do but I’ve lost 40 pounds on my own. I have 20 pounds left and no matter how much walking or watching what I eat I do I can’t lose that last 20 pounds so it would be nice to have something that helped with that.
I just can't get behind the "personal responsibility" argument for obesity. Obesity was rare 100 years ago, and people didn't have to go out of their way to avoid it.
@@lisab5716 Some people do need medication or surgery to lose weight. There are medical conditions that really affect weight loss. He’s not misinforming people, you’re just not educated enough to understand everyone’s bodies aren’t the same. Sometimes diet and exercise don’t do anything when your hormones are fighting against you.
@@lexiiluthii7513 I am someone who has low thyroid issues (how the low thyroid started in the first place could be up for debate, I think, but I digress), and I was told by society that I would naturally have a harder time losing weight due to my low thyroid condition. That was too easy to latch onto and use as an excuse for bad choices going forward, in my opinion, leading to more weight gain. I agree with @lisab5716 and @espada9 with regards to that being overweight is a choice, not a disease, and agree especially about doing resistance training (because I've done it in the past with GREAT results) and not taking drugs or surgery.
You guys don't want that in your system . If you calculate in pounds, let's say a body weighs 160 pounds, for example, we divide the 160 by 16 that gives you 10. That 10 represents the number of 8-ounce glasses of water daily that a 160-pound person needs. If you were a much heavier person, weighing 240 pounds, when you divide that by 16 that's going to give you 15 glasses. You will say, “But so much water!” Let me tell you, you are not going to drink all that water in once , You take it during the day. Now, for those of you who are in countries where weights are calculated in kilos, let's do it in kilos. In kilos it would be divided by seven. Let's say you weigh 70 kilograms, so 70 divide by 7 and that gives you 10 glasses again. These 10 glasses are calculated in milliliters, we are talking about 250 milliliter glasses of water, which is the same as 8 ounces, per day. Also know that 10 glasses are generally going to equal 5 bottles. The most common bottles sold on the market are 500 milliliter bottles, or 16 ounces.
