..you see overweight people making bad food choices? I know this is really wrong of me, and my diet isn't perfect. But every time I go out to eat at a fast food joint, or when I'm at the grocery store and I see some overweight person with a cart full of junk food, or ordering a large #1 with some extra nuggets on the side I think to myself "damn, you're overweight, why the hell you eating that?"..I know food can become addicting, but if I was really overweight I would really change my diet up for health reasons alone. Do these people not care about themselves?

I get what you're saying. One time I was running back from the park from playing basketball and I see this really big dude with 2 huge bags filled with cookies/candy/etc. In my mind I was like come on man, I wanted to steal the bags outta his hand and make him run for em but I think that's OD. I think these ppl care about themselves since some of them eat for their own reasons all we can do for them is tell em to stop but then they'll reply it's my life I can do what I want.

I stopped reading after that. let them kill them selves.

insurance companies shouldn't cover them let them get diabetes and other diseases.

Yeah but at the end of the day taxpayers are paying for programs etc to get these ppl in shape...which doesn't sit right with me.

What is the reason?
 
my obese high school math teacher was always eating donuts and downed them with diet pepsi

I'm in the process of slimming down right now so I know both sides of the story..

It pisses me off when I see my mother making bad food choices (which is pretty much everyone she makes) but with randoms..ppl are going to do whatever they want regardless of how I feel about it

Soon, there's gonna be Checker's opening, in addition to McD's, Wendys, Popeye's, and Dunkin Donuts within a block of each other, not to mention the KFC two blocks away.

That pisses me off more than individual's food choices. These corps are making the decisions for most ppl, because there's no dollar or value menu at the supermarket.

Ppl want fast food, and I don't see that changing.

I also think it's sort of elitist to look down on ppl if you're in that same restaurant eating the same type of trash. It's not really cool for anyone to be downing double cheeseburgers and such.

Fin.
 
Same could be said for those who choose to smoke, knowing the cancer risks.. Or for those who abuse alcohol and potential liver damage, or sun bath or use tanning beds without sunblock. Or people who don't use their seatbelts.. Or any number of things.

Free will exists and people know the risks when they use and abuse certain items or choose not to follow suggested guidelines. And while I understand addiction can play a factor, a lot of times that isn't the case and its the individuals decision to face the consequences.

Maybe you should stay off my testicles since you always seem to bring it up in every post. You remind me of a broad I turned down in high school who stayed butt hurt (and made it obvious) until we were seniors because I wouldn't go out with her...
 
I remember one time this contractor worked with us and dude was over 350+ lbs EASY.. well our team went over to Bennigans for lunch one time and this dude ordered a MONSTER ice cream sundae and told the server to bring it out with his lunch...which I think was mini burgers with fries. Dude demolished that sundae in under 10 minutes WHILE eating his lunch.

Everyone at the table was in shock

I don't really care about other people like that. In fact if I feel any emotion when it comes to other ppl's actions when they're harming themselves (smoking cigs, eating their way to diabetes, etc.) it's probably happiness.

I mean if you choose to destroy yourself who am I to judge? Maybe you feel you have a good reason to do so. What you eat don't make me +!!%.
 
Sometime it bothers me. I used to be obese and I remember buyin 2 big bags of chips at a gas station and the cashier was kind of hesitant... lol. Most of the time it only irks me when they buy junk food and they say they're tryin to lose weight. People used to get irked and treat me like @#%# for no being obese..
 
It bothers me when it's people that I care about
They complain all day about their weight while eating some greasy $%@ food
