It’s really sad to see obese kids

If they went outside to play an hour everyday it would probably make a big difference

If there’s a takeaway from covid, it’s that being fat is bad. Really bad. Covid didn’t kill these people. Years of fast food and soft drinks and sitting around doing nothing did it. Fat is bad. Don’t be fat. The old people needed to be quarantined and that’s fine. Nothing they could have done. Pneumonia could have killed them at their age. But the younger people who are obese need to get their shite together.




Survival of the fittest. GL to all!!

Literally any major illness is a high risk for elderly and unhealthy people

Covid is being used to control people. Covid in 1965 wouldn’t have killed many people

What about the not fat people who died?

A buddy of mine who was a marine died the other day. Pretty good shape. He died 4 days after symptoms. Has me taking it more serious now.


That's horrible, no one is saying it's non existent.

However, it was more likely he died driving his car everyday than in the matter in which he did.

Im still going to get in my tin box and drive back and forth to work everyday, despite it being "dangerous."

There's risk associated with everything we do.

blood clot?

because most people dying of COVID die after like 2-3 weeks, not after 4 days

It’s been over a year and no one got healthier. We locked them up and closed the gyms.


Very counter productive for sure. Disease attacks unhealthy people yet we close gyms, put millions out of work and ask them to stay inside. Yea, that’s gonna help our obesity problem not to mention the stress it causes led to increases of alcohol and drug abuse.

There are grocery stores everywhere these days. Ease of access isn't an excuse anymore. I'm with you on the laziest of us using the laziest ways imaginable to get their super sugar over portioned meals. Drive thrus, WAITR, UBER Eats, etc.. These aren't cheaper by any stretch. Even with the dollar menus you don't have people buying just one or two items, they get 5-9 items and wind up spending $11-$15.

People are lazy, selfish and addicted to sugar. If you were obese and the last year and a half didn't change your perception on your health then you want an early grave.

Ummm they may be fat but they could have lived another 20 or so years if they hadn't got Covid.

Much easier. I try to convince people that they will love the way they feel eating responsibly and exercising and they all agree. They just can't muster the "time" to do it. bullshite, make time. IF you've given up don't expect me to feel sorry for you or foot the bill on your health choices.

Growing up there was maybe 10 really fat kids in school.

Now it looks 50/50
