Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health. In adults, a body mass index (BMI) over 25 is considered overweight, and over 30 is obese.

I maintain the bigger problem is people not moving, not their diet. Think about your grandparents, the 3-4 hours people spend on their phones/computers today were spent outside in the yard/garden with light to medium work back then, plus the mostly sedentary jobs these days, everything is submitted electronically, you dont have to "go" anywhere anymore. Housework is automated or outsourced. Easily an extra 400-500 calories you could eat per day.

Golf simulator mind you but I just did a 5 over at Quintero

Simulator? and where did you putt? Anyone that shoots in the 70's knows that the short game and putting is where you score. And add in bad lies, buried trap shots, a bad bounce, etc.

You pick a radius. I actually putt okay, but I don't want to fuck my game up so on the simulator I do a 10' radius one putt. Golfing tomorrow (amazing for IL) but the simulators have gotten really accurate. Use it more for keeping the swing in tune and approach shots in IL winters. Would I have shot 5 over.... probably not. But for a simulator it was a good score for me.

I'm a mid 80's-90's golfer. I'm mostly playing scrambles at this point and doing a little gambling here and there. Otherwise I'll go solo and rip out a round in 2-3 hours. Half the time I don't keep score. I can't stand golfing on the weekend when Joe Retard comes to the course. So most my buddies are at work the days I want to go. We have 3 groups tomorrow.... By default the play is gonna be slow which kills my game.

Maybe for most people. I used to run 7 miles a day and when I didn't run like that, I bike 100 miles a week.

If I want to be in good condition, I can't drink beer, I can't eat processed foods, I can't eat out all the time, I basically don't eat carbs other than vegetables and beans. When I have a salad, I have to make my own damned salad dressing, I can't buy anything in a jar unless it's something like "tomato paste", I cannot buy pasta sauce, I can't consume ketchup unless I make it, I can't eat anything preprocessed.

When I do this for long enough, a soda is sickeningly sweet, a single beer gets me tipsy, ketchup becomes disgustingly sweet, I will feel nauseous when I eat out - it's too much food.

The problem is food in the United States is junk.

You can eat ice cream all day and be hungry because although you've consumed 5000 calories, you didn't get any nutrition.

I've fasted before for 2 weeks. Day 1-3 suck, but after that, you're no longer hungry, you got into ketosis, and although thinking isn't the easiest and you're tired, you will start burning all your fat. You have to get electrolytes meaning salt and possibly potassium salt. If you're already thin, doing this could kill you, so I don't recommend it.

No. Running that much was destroying my body and I pay for it now.

I used to bike quite a bit, and may get back into it.

The food our grandparents ate wasn't any better or worse. But they moved all day. No smart phones or game consoles and for the most part no computers. You can eat all the shit you want on top of a run of the mill diet as long as you work out all day. And probably easily consume 3000 calories without gaining weight (depending on how tall and/or muscular you are).

Running that much

Who says you have to run that much? I run a little over two miles, once every other day or so, depending on the weather. On non-running days, I use the elliptical. I’m working my way up to 3.1 miles, but no hurry. I currently do much more elliptical than running, which has helped with developing aerobic capacity. No huffing and puffing when running.

I have absolutely no respect for fat people. Especially young fat people. WTF were you thinking?

First off fuck O'hare. And the 2nd first off, give me a god damn break fatty. I'm fucking 6'3" in modern planes. I get one seat. I'll admit it sucks, but I'm not fat. I hammer some beers in the airport and then sleep on the plane so I don't have to deal the blubber hitting my arm. Buy a fucking 2nd seat land whale, don't expect to get it for free.

Us taller people should bitch with the leg room. We have zero control over our height. You do fatty. I don't get people that bitch about things THEY can control. I can't control my parents. I can control my activity level to not be fat.

Imagine your friends setting you up on a blind date and they prep you by saying that your date just won a respected, well known beauty pageant in your state ...

I know a young woman who is a bit chunky; she claims it's something to do with her hormones.
"Which hormone makes you eat a pizza?"
I lived once with an overweight woman; she was constantly in the kitchen, making food, eating, etc.
She'd come back from a night out and put shit in the microwave at 11:15 pm for a late night pig out.
Don't let them bullshit you; fat people eat a lot in order to maintain their huge size.

I know a cute girl but she's chunky.
She claims it's actually because of a hormone imbalance or something.
"Which hormone causes you to put pizza in your mouth?"

Tell her that your semen contains a chemical that will correct that hormone imbalance. Semenal Oxychloride that is produced naturally in the prostates of men of {your ethnicity, age, dietary habits}. Requires daily doses.

Women are more alarming in my opinion. A lot of men are just taller now, hence more mass. My 13 year old is 6' already. Sure some are fat, but even if runner type fit at 6'3" you're still going to weigh around 180-200lbs or probably more if you lift even light weight.

I haven't notice women getting taller. Depending on build and height a woman shouldn't weigh over 140. I also think the black community tilts the scale (pun intended) towards the uptick for women. I'd never date a woman that's weighs over 150lbs. Fortunately I don't have to worry about that.
