Everyone just stop stuffing your fat fucking faces. Someone very close to me has spent her entire life trying one fad diet and weight loss program after another. She can never lose a pound for the simple reason that she has no eating discipline and has not really exercised in twenty years. If you ask her why she's fat she'll have ten different reasons including her genes, her significant other, depression, etc.. but I call bullshilt. The reason you're fat is because you eat too many calories, and you don't exercise.

Everything else is just bullshit (except for the 0.5% of people claiming it who actually do have a gland problem).

Sending this video to Beggar's Canyon to plea for a little attention - beg requested by original submitter Trancecoach.

When I was young, about 3rd grade, I was taught about the population influx and the proportion on men/women being 49/51% and the amount of 'women surplus'. I decided to stay available. This is not what I had in mind...

Small town Pennsylvania - Last parade here had a HS band that had a total of 3 kids that weren't overweight.

Then a guy walking out of a grocery store gave me crap for smoking, saying I was losing years of my life. He was so big he needed to use the shopping cart as a walker to get to his car.

It's gotten disgusting here.

This attitude does more harm than good. Of course overweight people need to cut down on calories and increase exercise. Of course!

But it may be the most difficult thing in the world to do! If you quit smoking, you just stop. Yeah, it's hard, but if you go to pick up another cigarette, you know that's going to lead to starting the habit again. If you are an alcoholic, you know that you need to stay away from alcohol completely!

But you can't just stop eating! Imagine if you were trying to quit smoking a pack a day, but you needed one shallow drag off a cig every 4 hours, or you would die. Imagine you want to quit drinking, but you need one sip of whiskey every four hours or you would die! It's not enough to satisfy you, but you can't have any more! Day after day, after day.

That's what it's like trying to eat less. Every cell in your body is screaming at you to eat more, eat fatty foods, eat sugar, drink soda. And you have to resist. Every second, you have to resist. And then every three or four hours, you have to eat something, but not too much! And it has to be healthy, even when all your skinny friends are binging on pizza! And if you lose it once, eat too much, give in to the pizza, sleep in instead of exercising, or whatever, the depression hits soon afterward, making it that much harder to start the diet again.

If you haven't guessed yet, I'm going through this right now. I'm about to cook a Jenny Craig dinner, and all my co-workers are eating pizza around me. There's a candy jar not three feet from me that my co-workers "can't find another spot for". Lunch outings to fast food restaurants happen daily, and they talk about their many choices for at least an hour before going.

So yeah, it's not exactly like heroine withdrawals, but at least a druggie doesn't need to shoot up the weak shit to survive every day, constantly reminding him that the good stuff is out there, easy to get.

I've lost 30 pounds in the last few months, and I have another 40 to go. My goal is to run in the LA Marathon next May. So I have to deny my deepest instincts every moment if I even want to dream about achieving that goal.

So yeah, less calories, more exercise. But if you think that just because it's simple that it's also easy... just shut the hell up.
