MundaneFinality
Notice how none of this has anything to do with appearabce or value as a human being. This is how obesity should be treated.
SexPiss
The diabetes one is a tad misinformed. The likelihood is at that age he'd have type one diabetes, if at all, and that'd be genetic.
Bonnyy
Type one doesn't have to be genetic
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
We've reached the point where some children suffer type II diabetes brought on by their high-sugar diets.
CharliePapaBravo
I think it implies that he will have Type II eventually.
ZarabethLanger
It's amazing how the world seems to need an underclass to persecute. Blacks, Hispanics, Gays, Transgender, I guess it's fat kids now.
DelightfullyOdd
Was a fat kid, became a fat adult. Was tired of being a fat adult, became a less fat adult. Wish I'd done that as a kid.

I know the feeling, but it's good that you're looking after your health. Things can only get better, keep it up!

I'm trying to lose weight by eating less and exercising. I'm so hungry all the time.
mariposademuerte
I cut down on calories by reducing portion size. Trust me, you eventually get used to it and feel full on less

Low carb. Giving up the sugar is hard but you will never be hungry

Can we maybe shame only the parents, encourage healthy practices and not put down these kids?
DarthClitoris
Plus I went to public school and lunch was expensive
DarthClitoris
I've never felt more uneducated on a topic, I brought whatever gross healthy lunch my mom packed me and ate it.Always jealous but not hungry

As far as I'm concerned your personal health is your business. I don't care. However, if you have obese kids under 10 I'm judging you hard.

Fat kid now fat adult. My fault. I avoided exercise because I was bad at sports and participation meant getting made fun of in PE

43rdpresident
I'm definitely all for what your comment says, but feel like this kind of abuse is accepted.
MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
Do you mean the shaming for things they can't control even with activity or do you mean feeding your children only junk food?
EpicPancakes
Sorry, but 99% of fat people are not fat because of circumstances out of their control.
SpringToMyWinter
They mean abusing their kids by allowing them to become obese
EmoryToss17
Muh genetics!
joeyjojosharknado
wheresurgurl
Shaming kids is morally wrong, but telling they are only obese because of genetics or factors out of their control is factually wrong
MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
That's my point. The poster is claiming that all obese kids are abused. I'm saying it's not always just habit that's the deciding factor.
pipicacaboudin
Things they can't control? Like eating like a garbage truck?
MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
like genetics moron.
MioriYamaguchi
Becoming fat is not genetics. That is simply eating more than your body needs.
Tokipudi
Being fat is nearly never cause by genetics, it's mostly because you don't eat right and / or don't exercise enough.
pipicacaboudin
I'd bet you have big bones
EmoryToss17
Kids can't really control what they eat. Blame the shitty parents buying them shitty food.
Plorkindorkin
I don't know. Hypothyroidism exists. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome exists. There are many reasons people pick up and can't lose weight.
CharliePapaBravo
There is one reason. They consume more calories than they burn.
destinoz
Yes disease and genetics that contribute to weight gain exist, but while they are exceedingly rare, obesity is not.
primarian
Those conditions only make it (much) harder. They’re still subject to the laws of thermodynamics.
TheDreadPirateRobots
We shouldn’t fat shame people, but we also shouldn’t use fairly rare medical conditions to justify all obesity.
Plorkindorkin
I agree. Some people are obese because they do eat too much and are unwilling to lose any weight, which sucks.
sureasyourebornyourenevergoingtoseenounicorn
Remember when Michelle Obama tried to get school lunches healthier and people freaked the f out? I ‘member.

Yeah I worked in a school, ours partnered with a local farm and had great food. Each school decided how to implement it.

My school partnered with a local farm and had amazing food. Each school decided how to implement it. Some really fucked it up
OdinYggd
Healthy food is expensive. Schools can't afford the good stuff. Neither can most of the parents.
Treblaine
It's a catch-22, half the kids are so poor the school lunch is their only good meal, the other half are better off fasting through lunchtime
Treblaine
I know that's sacrilege, as if you don't eat every 3 hours you'll enter "starvation mode". Eating triggers insulin, which blocks fat burning
geauxaway
As someone whose never experienced a school cafeteria: why is this a gov issue? Bring food from home, and maybe the gov can use that $ (1/2
geauxaway
for low income families who cant afford lunches? Over simplistic I'm sure I just don't understand why your first lady is involed
Attacker732
That's where the program originated more or less. The government organized a program to feed public school students, who were generally 1/2
Attacker732
2/2 only from low-income families, who generally couldn't afford to feed their children enough.

Treblaine
I couldn't lose any weight until I ditched the mainstream dietary advice which everyone needs to accept simply does not work.
twinmama85
It's really about the S.A.D. -- standard american diet full of sugar and over processed foods that leads to this.
Treblaine
Sugar is everywhere now, it's in Canada, Australia, Europe. Everywhere it's widely used, obesity follows.
Treblaine
And treating sugar as just any other calorie, jesus christ, that's no good, learn some biochemistry, fructose is metabolised like ethanol.
Treblaine
I'm talking about shit like 3 meals and 2 snacks a day but "healthy" snacks it atrocious advice, makes a calorie deficit too hard.
PeopleSeemToHaveLongNamesOnImgur
What do you do? I eat a big meal at noon (600-700cal), a big meal at 7 pm(600-700) and a protein shake before and after working out 380cal.
Treblaine
I've found myself far less hungry and with higher energy levels, probably because my insulin levels have a chance to fall over 23 hours.
Treblaine
I have one meal which contains 5 portions of veg, outside that meal ZERO calories, not even milk in coffee/tea and NEVER any type of sodas.
DarthClitoris
Whatever you do, do not mix sugars with processed carbohydrates, plus the laws of thermodynamics, burn more than you take in.
Treblaine
So even eating the exact same amount/type but spread out throughout the day, thermodynamicaly weight loss is limited by limiting fat burning
Treblaine
Every time you eat, your insulin goes up and persists long after digestion. Insulin blocks energy from leaving fat cells.
Treblaine
Of course, thermodynamics, but it's easier to have one satisfying meal than 3 unsatisfying meals/snacks.
Treblaine
I quit sugars a while ago on advice of my dentist. I get my "five a day" from veggies.
Treblaine
Realise I had - in the past - consumed sugar in excess, I can't necessarily eat the same as YOU and have the same insulin response.
PeopleSeemToHaveLongNamesOnImgur
You went straight to 23 hours fasting 1 hour eating? I was scared to try that. I do 17 hours fast 7 hours eating.
Treblaine
For a few years I had no breakfast and tended to have a later lunches and earlier dinners, so effectively 18:6. The problem was snacking.
Treblaine
I suddenly found it much easier to go 23:1 when I really would totally fast, I'd find a sip of milk or a bit of candy would set off cravings
Treblaine
Though I didn't go directly to black coffee. I just steadily used less and less and less milk until it tasted indistinguishable from black.
Treblaine
The trick is, I think, to really avoid even 1 gram of carbs in the 23 hours, so not a drop of milk in coffee, also no artificial sweeteners!
Treblaine
Even 100ml of milk in a coffee can trigger an insulin release that can leave you craving something to spike your glucose levels again.
orangecicle
I started eating my emptins as a young kid because of abuse and bullying. I've never learned to cope and... Continue to ear my feelings. >

waitingtofly
Yeah, it's unfortunate. I used to do that too and still sometimes do it.

True. Treating obesity as a disease-both physical and psychological- rather than a character flaw would help.

DarthFutuza
If you don't have parents, you don't even have to worry about that! problemsolved
theboned1
Kids are literally completely ignorant from birth. If they arent taught health and healthy habits they wont learn it on their own.
destinoz
The challenge is to find the healthy foods they will eat because you can't teach taste. That and keep the added sugar out of the house.
theboned1
Totes Ma'goats!
orangecicle
Parent buys cheese. Cheese is fine if you eat a serving. Kid who sneaks isn't eating once serving. Problem not solved dumbass.
LearnSomething
Eating a bunch of cheese is not going to make you fat, who are you kidding? Kids eat a lot of food, they metabolize a shit ton while they're
LearnSomething
Growing at such a high rate. It's the sodas and juices and candy and everything else that's making them fat, not sneaking cheese.

Same. My parents tried to motivate me, tried to explain about healthy food; but still became fat. Lost a Lot of weight a few years ago, tho

Good job.

Me too brother. Luckily now I am trying to fix what I fucked up

I grew up obese. I've been out of the house since August and am now beginning to lose weight. It feels great.

It's never too late to start

What if you already skinny after being phat
JustBarelyTrolling
Except if you already died from a heart attack. Then it's too late.
IOnlyFavouriteDogPictures
Pfft, there's always the afterlife. Get ready for the skeleton wars.

NANI?
CyanideBreathMint
Were your parents also heavy set?
Samsquantch82
No. My dad was a Marine and my mom was a little thicker but never obese.

Its NEVER the childs fault!! EVER!!

This is my son, I worry all the time, he asked for locks on the fridge we hardly keep anything in the house it hasn't helped breaks my heart

Low carb diet. Will stop him being hungry and allow him to lose weight.

Therapy?

Whats his diet consist of? Better food is a better place to start, then he can work his way up to less food. The body needs proper nutrients
Wolvenlight
or it will store as much fat/sugars for energy as it can, despite less overall food. Consult a dietician or three (not nutritionists! They-
Wolvenlight
generally aren't certified or medically trained) for proper diet, and check to see if there is a vitamin deficiency/thyroid issue as well.-
Wolvenlight
And of course remember exercise, which is a whole other discussion. (Hope this helps, sorry if I'm repeating stuff you've already tried).
Carefuler
No, all imgur says it was your parent's fault, they were awful parents, same as child abuse, and you should have been taken from them.
RoseTheSpecialEdTeacher
Believe it or not, the blame can be on both parties.
GuW69
I was a skinny kid, and up to 30 I was fit, up to 40 I wasnt overweight, after 40 *BOOM* now I'm fat and unhealthy
whatupmyknitters
i was a skinny kid and became a fat adult. i snuck food too. idk about you but for me in my home [tasty, satisfying] food was heavily tied--
whatupmyknitters
-to shame, which is why i snuck the "good" stuff or gorged when i was at friends' houses.
JadeMcLeod
I relate to this way too much, I'm not overweight yet but my diet isn't sustainable without a lot of exercise. Do you have any advice?
whatupmyknitters
Iamabigdogthatwantstobesmall
I can relate to this hard

You should eat as much as you can, but only real food, that is how you get lean and strong.
gamerely2718
One could argue that instilling a desire to exercise and not stocking the house with junk food could have prevented that.
BigRedMonkeyButts
I had old parents that didn't want to play. Was kind of a bummer. Am an old parent, trying not to repeat the cycle.
ZKrock
While you're at it with your sage advice, tell the bulimic to stop throwing up, and the depressed person to "feel better."
BigRedMonkeyButts
My mom was a terrible cook so I had an affinity for bad fast food and such. I do blame her for that, but not my sedentary lifestyle.
Treblaine
When parents are told junk food like breakfast cereal is "the most important meal of the day" what can anyone expect?
Wolvenlight
To be fair, breakfast is important. Its what the breakfast consists of that matters. Granted, I think that's what you meant.
Treblaine
Why? Where is the evidence you need to spread your eating throughout the day in many eating sessions?
gamerely2718
There are a few articles that say eating every 2.5 hours is ideal for metabolism. But it's been a while since I've looked into it.
Wolvenlight
"Breakfast is important" =/= "spread out your eating sessions." I'm having trouble figuring out what you're getting at.
potshot
Maybe, but at what point is it enough? Some kids are different, and react differently.
IOnlyFavouriteDogPictures
It's difficult to force someone to exercise, especially if they don't like the sport. I hate football/rugby and that's practically 1/2
lauraInternetJunkie
In addition to the other comments, having parents exercising is a great inspiration. At early an early age kid's brains are sponges.
IOnlyFavouriteDogPictures
Yeah.. Neither of my parents exercise :/
lauraInternetJunkie
I went to a nutritionist / sport doctor who did her thesis on the influence of parents. She told me most people whose parents were not activ
IOnlyFavouriteDogPictures
all my school did, so I hated P.E. and that led me to hate exercise.
ariafiresong
I'd like exercise a lot more if I hadn't got asthma early on and we played more dodgeball. Always had an asthma attack playing dodgeball.
ariafiresong
Worth it tho. I sucked at it but it was fun.
gamerely2718
It really depends on how you are with your kiddos in their developmental stages. Run around and play tag vs sit and watch tv kinda thing.
belgican09
Not necessarily. My parents were super active with me, huge yard, pool, wasn't allowed more then 1 hr computer a day, still struggle with 1/
belgican09
Exercising and eating right as an adult. And they were healthy w/ food - planted a garden every year I'd eat raw veggies from for snacks 2/2
IOnlyFavouriteDogPictures
I'm not a parent, so I've no idea, but yeah I would imagine so. No idea how "active" my parents were with me as a baby.
briham86
My mom kept healthy food around the house, so I bought junk myself. And how do you get a kid to exercise without resenting it?
azarza
I really hope the answer is exercise with em.. any other ideas?
crispygrapes
PLAY. If you pose all of the exercise as play, it won't seem so foreign to MOVE their bodies, become out of breath, play so hard you sweat.
crispygrapes
Play. It's not "let's go exercise," it's "let's go to the park, to the pool, for a hike; let's play some soccer, wanna try tennis?"
swatz
That's great, and I agree; however, I do find it hard at times, with our work schedules. :(
crispygrapes
Yep, it can be really hard. Some days we don't get outside at all, due to weather, work, etc. But 60 min of rough-housing is good too! 1/2
Trvekvltarsehole
It's mostly diet related...source: I ate shit but was an athlete
gamerely2718
Where is the money coming from, how are you getting to the store, what are you buying, there are small pieces of interaction that can help
whatyoulurkingat
This, as a kid I was lucky if I had $5 a week. Which I saved for video games.
AmHumanNotLizardMan
But then money saving ability varies between children as well. I saved £500 of birthday and christmas money for a PC, my bro spent
LearnSomething
Exercise with them as children so it's not some foreign concept that they hate when they're already fat.
sunyudai
I think iit's less about what's in the house and more about how it's presented. Don't treat junk food or candy as a reward.
treyryan3
How do you get a kid to exercise without resentment? Live far from the school bus stop. Pay the neighborhood bully to chase your kid home!
TheLetterKay
My kids don't get money from me except for like school trips. They can eat what's in my house. Which is nothing junk. Snacks are for special
AmHumanNotLizardMan
Not even anything for christmas or birthdays? Or are they not old enough for stuff like that yet?
TheLetterKay
Oldest is 8yo. And family tries to give her money. But she doesn't understand the value of it yet, so it's in savings we buy her appropriate
TheLetterKay
Events like holidays and birthdays. We also have only 1 tv and it's very limited. No cable. So play is a must to not be bored.
bunnyrut
I was the fat kid too. My siblings are all skinny. I played sports, I went out to play, I was just chubby. Still am.
waitingtofly
Same here! I used to go out playing till the sun went down playing all kinds of sports but I was still fat, still am.
Imnotverypopular
Have you checked your diet? 90% of weight issues are caused by excessive eating. If you eat like a 400 lb person, you are gonna end up 400lb
bunnyrut
Grew up in the same household eating the same food bud.
Imnotverypopular
A lil pain rn will save you in the long run
waitingtofly
That's true. Honestly my mom made me and my siblings eat a lot of rice (lol), but I was the only one gaining weight. 1/
waitingtofly
I lost some weight after lifting, but still have a long way to go though.
bunnyrut
Thanks! I never considered changing my diet. Wow what a revelation! /s
secretsaiyan
My dad would comment on my weight and then I'd spitefully eat McDonald's in his chair when my parents were out of the house.
BigRedMonkeyButts
Did you wipe the grease from your hands on it?
joeyjojosharknado
You should get diabetes and have a heart attack, that'll learn him.
secretsaiyan
I was young and had low self-esteem. I really bought into the body positivity crap.
Rifneno
And yet, I've seen imguretards frontpage the opinion that obesity in children should be considered child abuse multiple times. Part of the
Rifneno
reason I consider imgur's opinions worth less than confederate money.
BigRedMonkeyButts
ha
equityforpunks
Me too. Or more like it was due to school health system, which was unable to point that 5 snickers is not a good thing to eat every day 1/2
equityforpunks
2/2 Luckily that same system showed how narcs inject heroin into their penis, bc they can't find veins anywhere else so I have used 0 drugs.

Bunch of junkies from where I live refer to that as cornflaking.
filben7
These are the same schools that always had chocolate milk and ice cream and a slushy machine and little debbie snacks and chips...
BigRedMonkeyButts
Man we didn't have any of that shit. Just gross square plastic pizza.
filben7
All that shit cost extra(except the chocolate milk and little ice cream cups). We also had that nasty "pizza", I always hated it.
