I just thought, what if a teenager sees this? That would be really hurtful to see a message like that.

Childhood obesity is an epidemic. So many kids under 10 that look like little Michelin Men.

The good thing about fat shaming people in the gym is that, like making fun of the Amish on the internet, they'll never know.

There's no scientific proof that you can't be healthy and obese. a lot of it is genetics

I was fat shamed as a kid. It worked. I lost a bunch of weight and have never looked back.

Possibly, but it's definitely not good to let kids drink chocolate milk and coke 24/7.

Stop blaming your own lack of self control on "genetics". Sure, some people are naturally larger and hold a little more fat, but not genetically morbidly obese. That's on them. No way around it.

Actually, this is completely false. There is abundant scientific proof that obesity leads to a plethora of health problems from diabetes to cancer to high blood pressure to poor wound healing.

There is also scientific proof that it is easier to prevent obesity than lose weight once you are obese. We need to be attacking childhood obesity head-on, not enabling it to prevent hurt feelings.

Two in five Americans are obese. You wanna diagnose two in five Americans with a genetic disorder?
