I know this is fat cope bullshit. But we didn't originate from tropical islands. We originated in somewhere around South East Europe/ Northern Africa/ Middle East.
You know some people have actual serious health conditions (including psychological) that makes it extremely difficult for them to lose weight, right?
Also, have you ever tried to go on a diet, regardless of health issues? Even though I'm already skinny I did a "cutting" phase once because during "bulk" I put on a tiny amount of belly fat, and it's horridly difficult. I consider myself very strong-willed and stuck to it for quite some time but progress is *extremely* slow, plus it makes you tired and weak, so it's demoralizing as hell.
Similar situation with my dad. Always used to be skinny, and complain about fat people who just "can't hold their throat," but since he stopped smoking and started taking anti-depressives a couple years ago, he's bloated up quite a bit. Now he keeps saying "this time I'll go on a diet FOR REAL" (like he used to do with quitting cigarettes, which he tried a dozen times before it finally worked) only to end up all meek like: shit I never knew it was this hard, I'll give up for now.

That is the problem. We do know that we get fat because our hunger grows, but noone asks why does our hunger keep growing. And the common societal anwser is only the basic "eat less"
Only recently have some theories come into the popular culture on how to actually cut hunger. Keto diet being the most common one, but the way I understand it, it still is a mystery, that does need a few more decades to find an optimal solution.
That being said, I still see most fat people as too lazy to do actual research into the topic. My first step in getting thin was to turn to the only people I know of capable of actually loosing fat on command (actors). And all of them recommend to eat mostly chicken.
So immagine my shock, when most of "fit oriented" people eat 3 salads a day, that they do top of with fried cheese and cola, because they deserve it
