[Jintor]

Speaking as an average high-school student... i don't see to many obese people who don't have big parents. And i don't see big as fat, i mean, big. large. Whatever.

[Zeus]

Grr I hate little fat kids....LIFT SOME WEIGHTS AND DO SOME SIT UPS/PUSH UPS!!!


Stupid rolly polly I just want to roll them down a hill!

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

A lot of people who don't look fat, have less lean mass (muscle basically) than compared to their counterparts 40 years ago. Its sad that his geneation of children is expected tod ie before their parents...

So much for longer living in the 21st century.

 

[ríomhaire]

They key is balance. I eat a good bit of sugar but I do Tae Kwon Do

I blame technology. Humans were meant to spend their days hunting and foraging for food and procreating. Now we sit in front of a monitor for 12 hours a day typing on a keyboard. Humans weren't meant to sit at a desk all day. Children weren't meant to be babysat with a television and video game console. Some people's only excercise is taking the elevator down one floor to go to the vending machines.

It's a sad state of affairs. My kids won't own a video game system until well into their teens. I'll substitute weekends in front of the TV with a weekend camping in the woods. I'll make my kids real food instead of taking the easy way out and getting them McDonalds for every meal. Any hour of TV they want to watch will be a reward for equal time outside.

Life is just too simple anymore.

It's hard for me to get around the fact that most obese people could do something about it. Believe me, I know about the exceptions to this rule - my mum has ME and can't do anything other than brief aerobic exercise every day or she collapses. The majority, however, aren't stuck with obesity, and this is what pisses me off.

You can call the ' some skinny people are lazy too ' argument in if you want, but to me that's a pisstake in itself; there are some things in life you have to work at, it's no good sitting back and eating a burger. Some people are dumber than others, but the less intelligent ones who work hard get better grades than the ones who sit back and resign themselves their fate.

If you want to resign yourself to a lard-filled life of fatness, that's your choice, I guess, but the strong thing to do is to ask yourself what you can do about it, and then f'kin do it.

( right now I cycle 70m a week and swim everyday before college to keep lard outof my system, just to put this rant into perspective )

It's a sad state of affairs. My kids won't own a video game system until well into their teens. I'll substitute weekends in front of the TV with a weekend camping in the woods. I'll make my kids real food instead of taking the easy way out and getting them McDonalds for every meal. Any hour of TV they want to watch will be a reward for equal time outside.

Well I spend quite a lot of the time in front of the monitor (I'll admit probably more than I should) but I am not a fat tub of lard.

We need to face it though, obesity sucks. It is unhealthy and disgusting and we need to end it now before it gets even more serious.

 

[Direwolf]

The one thing that drives me nuts is that almost anything I'd rather do for exercise can't be done during the winter around here. For about six months I've got no problem getting out and doing stuff, but for the other six I have to consciously try and find some way to get some exercise done.

 

[ríomhaire]

Fat people don't have fat children (unless it's the rare case of it being genetic). They children are fat because the parents eat crap and feed the same crap to their children.

 

[Direwolf]

Maybe its just around here, but I've known lots of families with perfectly healthy diets that are still all overweight. Genetics doesn't have to be the reason, but it can make you disposed to being overweight.

I certainly didn't mean to imply that everyone who uses technology is overweight.

When kids (6-16 yrs old) are inside playing Xbox and eating junk food all day they aren't outside getting excercise or participating in sports. Technology is a cheap babysitter. Parents' lives are becoming more hectic and they need ways to keep their kids busy. Tv comes to mind immediately.

In the 1800's obesity wasn't a problem because there wasn't the technology that took the work out of everyday life. You didn't hop into a car and drive to the drive thru for food and then go home and sit inside playing video games all day.

j00 stoled Jamie Oliver's lin3!!
He said that in some program anyway...
Also, doesnt metabolism have a part to play? I mean two kids can eat and do the exact same things, sit on a computer for hours etc, yet turn out completely different because of their metabolism?
I eat loads and dont exercise and Im still underweight. Hell, Id have to TRY to get fat, and Im probably extremely unhealthy, just not fat.

 

[el Chi]

What are your thoughts? Is there anyone you blame?

Themselves and the parents.
Sure, the companies are to blame in many respects, but at the end of the day it is up to the parents as well.

But I don't believe this; everyone on Neighbours is so thin and healthy - how can this possibly be true!?

 

[ríomhaire]

Do know that a mother sewed McDonald's for making her daughter fat?
It's not as if Ronald McDonald tied her up and force fed her!

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

This is what happened to the Combine, when you think about it. Perhaps we will become the Combine of the future universe..

 

[Orcone101]

People choose how they want to live. There's nothing that can be done to stop them.
But when they're only 40 and having heart problems and realising their lives have been dramatically cut short because of their lifestyle, only then will they wish they had exercised and eaten right.
Cruel form of Karma happening here.

 

[Mattigus]

Australia's children are now around the fattest in the world.

4 out of 5 are classed as obese... It also is a risk that the parents will outlive them.

So America doesn't have the fattest kids. ALRIGHT!

USA USA USA!!!

 

[eatbugs]

All i can do is laugh at the aussies.

Hey, I'm a kiwi!

Uh, generally then the parents are fat because they eat the crap they're feeding to their children.

I just feel good that we're kicking of smoking and obesity at the smae time.

America! **** yeah!

STOP FEEDING CRAP TO KIDS! "SFCTK"

i really should sleep. 19.5 hrs awake is not good.
:rolling:

 

[willyd]

but where do we draw the line as to who is fat? i mean... i don't want to be responsible for killing any skinny people... :|

I think most people use a BMI of 30 to define obesity. So a person who is incredibly strong can be misclassified as "obese." But fortunetly there arent too many little kid body builders.
