Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Fat Shaming? Fitness Dude's Rant Against Fat

This guy is causing a lot of waves for this rant against fat/diet/laziness. Sounds like truth to me and I ain't the pinnacle of health. What say you?

I don't disagree.

Becoming/being/remaining fat is a choice, just like (starting) smoking, IMO. If they haven't already, I would not be opposed to insurers increasing premiums on the fatties out there or at least those deemed clinically obese.

Is there any argument a fat person can make that justifies their current physical state? Perhaps there is something out there that I have not thought of, like some bizarre medical condition, but I doubt it.

Doc told me I was obese - 6'1/2" - 196# (clothed) - and 11" around the wrists. I wear 35" waist Wranglers and 17 1/2 X 37 denim shirts.
The educated idiots must speak.
My main concern is who draws the line defining obesity, mental illness, or any other touchy subject?

Good point on the kids.

If you mean each wrist is 11" then you probably have the world's largest wrists.

I was thinking that too. Checked mine, and they hit 9 inches. I'm not a small fellow. 6'2", 235.

Yup. If someone doesn't care enough to take care of himself, that's his business. With kids it's not.

I'd say he should be more concerned with himself and not worry about others, but he's obviously as into himself as it's possible to get.

He'll have a miserable life.

I attribute the cause of a lot of obesity to laziness and unwillingness to watch what they eat. I had not been paying attention to what I was eating and had gotten up to 311# a few years ago. A morbidly obese guy who had to weigh over 500# told me that once he passed 350# that no matter what he tried he could not lose weight. I decided that was not going to be me, I spent some time with a dietician and by following her advice have lost 50#. I continue to lose and am now within 15# of my goal weight and have set a new goal. I walk 3-4x a day and feel great at 65, my BP and blood sugar have shown improvement since starting daily walks.

Good job, I've got to get on the stick as well.

I've seen a couple gym rats like that that dropped out after 3 days on a wildland fire. Get them away from all their supplments and protein shakes and they folded up like cheap suits on base camp food.
There probably is some truth in his message though.

I don't care if someone's a fat roll unless they are a cop, fireman, EMT, school teacher...
If you have kids who see you Dailey and you supposed to be an example, you should look at least healthy.
Ripped isn't possible for some folks. But having a 30+ BMI is killing you.
As well it destroying everyone else's insurance rates.

I bet his boyfriend is happy with his health.

I love when virgins make youtube videos.

The extra 30 pounds I'm carrying may stop a bullet.

[bleep] him.

For those that don't read Japanese, his left shoulder reads:

I think it's funny how small he is. If you're gonna go on and on about how fit/buff you are, better get some size. He DOES have a point about fat lazy people, though. My daughter is fat. She is fat, because she eats too much. A 4.0 in college, success in the business world after that, and she cannot figure that out.

I didn't listen to the inked up gym rat for very long. He has stupid signs all over his body, cannot communicate without dropping f-bombs, and my vehicles are older than he is, so why should I bother? However, I did read the thread.

Long story shorter, the simple fact of the matter is that if you are like most people (there are exceptions) and eat a lot of refined sugar and carbs, they are going to spike your insulin and make you hungrier than if you had chosen to eat something else. So, it is not a simple equation of calories in and out. I can eat a healthy bowl of oatmeal or a "healthy" muffin for breakfast at 6:30 and by 9:00 be hungry enough to eat the bark off a tree. If I eat equivalent calories in eggs or some walnuts swimming around in butter, I am good till noon or later. So I eat fewer calories in that day. Sometimes I forget to eat if I get busy.

A low carb diet with plenty of non starchy vegetables, a little fruit, meat, and no processed food will make calorie restriction and "moderation" more doable for most people. It kills the cravings after a few weeks. It ain't the easiest way to live.....that would be to eat processed food and fast food like the majority of sick fat people in the country, but for me it beats the low fat diet(which is a disaster), as well as "moderation and will power". I simply cannot consume sugar and refined carbs in moderation and don't think many people can, which is why we have the problem with diabetes and obesity that we do. All processed food is loaded with them and all processed food is concocted by scientists in a lab and laced with chemicals to make you addicted to their products so the big food companies can make their wall street quarterly numbers. Yet we are told to eat right and being fat is all our fault. I call BS.....it is just another way that the public is getting raped by corporations. Leave that crap on the shelf if at all possible. They sell us crap food that we eat for a lifetime which sends us to the medical industry which causes us to have to pay ridiculous insurance rates. Notice a pattern?

If you are fat, materials by Atkins, Weston Price, David Perlmutter, and William Davis are your friend. They are all variations on the same theme....just don't eat any processed crap that they may sell....especially Atkins. Eat whole foods only. The only thing left to say is that if you think you can run or walk enough miles or lift enough weights to make up for a poor diet....well, you can't. Exercise is great but you will simply be a fitter fat person....been there done that.

Didn't listen. The pic screams douchebag loud and clear though.
