Why do people struggle so much with this concept?

Why is that when I try to explain this to people, they give me replies like "It's not that easy, I've tried it!" or "I don't have time to make healthy food!". First of all, if you had time to make SHITTY food, you had time to make good food. It takes all of five minutes to fry a two or three chicken tenderloins in a pan using only a teaspoon of olive oil instead of the deep frying or microwaved shit you made. Second, if you're really pinched for time, go to Subway or get the grilled chicken sandwich at fast food with a side salad instead of the fucking Double Whopper and fries.

The worst one I hear is from female friends who haven't seen me in a year (I've since lost about 60 pounds). They always say, "Wow, you look so good. How did you do it? I wish I could lose weight!". I mean, fuck, even when I was fat I KNEW how to lose weight, I just didn't commit myself to it. Eat less calories and exercise a bit more.

So many excuses, so little time...

Not ever fat person knows, when I was 13-16 I was trying to lose weight but I didn't know how. I would eat the same and exercise. I got Healthier and stronger but didn't lose my fat.

Started reading and found out why I didn't lose weight started eating smaller portions and finally lost the weight.

Because I got misinformed by other retards, at the time I thought you could eat what you want and just exercise it all off.

I was hugely overweight maybe like 30lbs I lean't everything about weightloss here.

weight loss is fucking hard, ok? I went through 60lbs of it myself (hardly record breaking, but notable).
Diet?
The human body is designed to seek out and eat any and all food and store the extra as fat because it doesn't 'know' that there's a grocery store around the corner, and that there won't be a famine next week.
Exercise?
Again, the body doesn't want to exhaust itself hoisting about some metal for no reason because there *might* be a cheetah or a bear or something just around the corner.

Small 'lifestyle changes'?
People are creatures of habit. "If I do something this way and nothing bad happens, I don't want to try it that way because something bad might happen and I am already secure."

Yeah the concept is so fucking simple, that the inability to comprehend calories in vs calories out should be used as a litmus test for breeding purposes, but even if people understand it, they are fighting millions of years of evolution that tell them to keep doing what they are doing.

So you just admitted it's a willpower issue and has nothing to do with biology.>>310889is now irrelevant and you are a contradicting dumbass.

Because certainly one wouldn't need a great deal of willpower to overcome one's biological urges.

Your existence is now irrelevant and you are a dumbass dumbass. Yes, that's right: your dumbassedness is so great that the use of any other adjective besides the redundant "dumbass" would not quite reach the level of dumbass that you are displaying.

I did it, anyone can do it.

And there is no biological urge to stuff your lardface with Triple Whoppers. The only biological urge that applies is "You eat when you're hungry, you don't eat when you're not."

It's woefully depressing that you seem to think "biology" is some kind of shadowy hand pulling all the strings in your life and forcing you to do unhealthy shit. Excuses, excuses, excuses, excuses, excuses.

Stop being a pussy and a fatty. You're the worst kind of scum to walk this Earth.

OH SHIT I LOVE YOU, exactly what I did ate when I was hungry and didn't stuff my face in just enough so I wouldn't be hungry.

Didn't even change my diet really just ate smaller portions

I find it hard to lose weight because I'm on the rugby team, do running for personal fun and do strength training for rugby also.

I eat a fuck ton because I'm fucking starving and need the energy/protein so unless I want to feel light headed and like a weak anorexic fuck during my rugby games I'm gonna eat a fuck ton.. the thing is I eat healthy as FUCK.

as for the obese whales that eat ANYTHING and EVERYTHING 24/7... answer is simple LAZY FAT FUCK WHALES ARE LAZY FAT FUCK WHALES.

It's a personal and lifestyle change not an overnight thing, so they choose to try and complain about it. They fail at life.

I got so much of this shit before I lost 60 lbs. I would fucking rage so much when people would try to be coy in their sabotage attempts by asking you stuff like 'why would you want to lose weight?' or 'why do you care what people think of you, that's dumb'. Being made fun of because you chose to eat salad instead of a greasy ass food item when you go out with people was the fucking worst.

I can't wait to get to your stage of post-weight loss where I turn into a colossal, egotistical asshole who turns his anger at himself for becoming fat on those who remain obese.

Seriously. I'm not being sarcastic.

What I hate more are the people trying to sabotage my steady weightloss. My fat roommate is always like "Durrr it's 1 am but lets order a pizza!" or "I insist you eat half of this fucking plate of cookies!" Sorry but I don't want to be fat with you.

Sounds like my mom. When she drops by my apartment, she brings me bread and cinnamon buns she bought from an Italian bakery. 'Ohhh I thought you'd like them honey', she says in her foul Jewess twang.

They do it because they're trying to manipulate you. It's because they know that people are easier to control when they have less confidence, and by keeping people fat, they're more dependent and less able to assert themselves. Most people who are natural manipulators instinctively know this.

In my mother's case, she's always tried to keep me at an unhealthily close distance. Clingy and debased, and really creepy. She's fought me tooth and nail on my weight loss, trying to give me cakes, bringing me boxes of chocolate, etc. anything she can do to fuck me over.

It IS more complex than that. You have to exercise, you have to know what foods to eat when (no breakfast + big dinner = no weight loss).

I mean I don't know where you've been, but I'm on 50lbs of weight loss and I still struggle with the ideal diet.

But I'm probably just bitter today because my metabolism is like at a fucking standstill.

Also, you have shitty friends if they keep making you eat. I mean, fuck, nobody I know is shoving food in my face. They're usually asking for advice or being silently jealous (which feels so fucking good)

I was born into it. She's my mother, after all.

I didn't know for most of my life. It took years of wondering why I was trying to lose weight and failing, why I was lonely, why I didn't have a social life... I finally moved out and it gave me clarity to understand my situation now that I was no longer living with her.

My mom is going to rot in an old folks home unvisited as a result.

>'why do you care what people think of you, that's dumb'.

The best answer to this cliche actually comes from Futurama:

Fry: 'You shouldn't care what people think, just be yourself. You don't need the operation.'

Leela: 'You're right. I'll START by not caring what YOU think. I'm getting the operation.'

Basically, do shit for yourself. When I was fat, I didn't care that people made fun of me for being fat. Just like the Star Wars geek didn't really care that people made fun of his Darth Vader bedsheets or the skinny ass kid always got called "boney" or "pencil neck" or whatever.

Most people don't care about getting insulted. EVERYONE gets insulted. People want to change to better themselves. The fatty loses weight for health reasons usually, the geek grows out of it or cuts back on his gaming/nerd addiction because it gets in the way of his future career, the skinny kid realizes he's just as unhealthy as a fatty and starts bulking up.

>>311667

Been there. Dealt with a fat ass who always ranted about how unhealthy vegetarianism is. Dealt with "nice" friends who try to convince you you're fine, despite them all having SOs and you being so ronery because you're fat. Dealt with the coworkers shoving leftover donuts in my face on break. Etc.

Just gotta keep your will and remember it's about YOU.

I got brutally fucked over as a child when my entire family turned me into one of those 'adorable fat kids'. I was fucking loved by everybody. At family gatherings, everyone wanted to pinch my cheeks, give me hugs or kiss me because I was the cute little tubby everyone wanted to cuddle with. Of course, once I hit my teens and acne, a bad voice and greasy hair set it, NO ONE wanted anything to do with me and I was forgotten for all time. It didn't take until my freshman year of college to start on a journey that would end 60 pounds and a girlfriend later. I paid for it dearly with junior high and high school. Now whenever I see them fattening up nephews and nieces because they want the next ewok to cuddle with, I just facepalm and pray that those children manage to break out of that hell they are being put through.

only read op's post.

and have similar views. if a person is unfortunate enough not to be naturally skinny, and they want to be skinny, there is nothing stopping them. if they start coming up with excuses then they are fucking bitches and dont deserve to be how they want to be.

this is why i respect anorexic people (who arent attention whoring), they see how they want to be and they fucking do what it takes to get there, no whining, no bitching, they just do it.

Anon, we have a similar life experience. I had the same childhood/adolescent experience, and I've also lost 60 pounds (I have 25 more to go though).
