    The one time I won't make fun of a fat person is when they're excercising. Good on them for trying to get in shape. I kinda liked it.

    No one is criticizing the ad or the kid in it,it's the fat that wrote this article that needs to be ted on.

    Gah, why did I click the link? I want to give the woman the benefit of the doubt and believe that it's just a plan to write something intentionally grating to rile people enough to go to the page and drive up her unique viewer count and she's really not that dumb. But seriously? Year after year various groups gripe over the body image issues coming from companies advertising using nothing but the finest and fittest bodies they can get. They finally made a commercial featuring someone who looks like half the guys you see buying running shoes at Academy on January 2nd and people still ?

    For my money I thought the commercial was a brilliant piece of work precisely because it was unbelievably simple. Any message that it sends through to the viewer is mostly on the viewer. If you look like that kid maybe it comes across as a refreshingly honest take in an ad campaign. They aren't promising the moon, just showing what you could be doing. If you're someone who could probably stand to drop 15 pounds or so then it can be equal parts inspiring and challenging. The downside to that simplicity is that it's just as easy for an idiot to project a victim status all over it as well.

    It perpetuates this damaging, condescending fantasy that some (SOME!) thin people love—the idea that they're thin because they worked hard, because they're somehow better than other people. "Well, fat people just need to get up and run. If fat people just worked hard, they could become as thin as me! They could achieve greatness! LIKE ME." No. It is more complicated than that. Some thin people work hard to be thin. But many don't. Lots of fat people work hard to lose weight, but fail. Many fat people go running. Many thin people don't. Many fat people are disabled — physically incapable of running.


    "A lot of skinny people don't work hard to be skinny"

    Yeah, , there's a reason the thin, attractive girl in the cubicle next to you is thin despite never going to the gym. It's because she doesn't hoover 4000+ calories on any given day. She skipped lunch because she wasn't hungry. You weren't hungry either, but instead of sitting that one out, you convinced yourself a "snack" would boost your already non-existent metabolism. You know it wont, but you'll find any reason to get food in and around the bottomless pit you call a mouth. So you "snacked" on a Snickers bar, a banana nut muffin, and half a box of Wheat Thins -- because Wheat Thins are your go-to health food. Then you washed it down with a 20 oz Mountain Dew. You just managed to gorge yourself to the tune of 1500 calories and 250 grams of carbs all in the name of "snacking". Once your blood sugar drops from the "ungodly" level down to the usual "unhealthy" level, you'll be back at the snack machine and soda machine for another sugar re-up so your body can continue functioning with diabetic-level efficiency. Go ahead and mark that down as a "skipped lunch" and make up for it by eating big with a clean conscience at dinner time.

    Just imagine if you hadn't eaten "light" today, then you'd have 3000 excess calories to burn off as opposed to only 2000. Yes, fat people can and will work themselves up enough to go for a walk or a light jog. But even if they were knocking out 10-15 miles a night, they would only be burning the excess calories and carbs they consumed throughout the day. They wouldn't even make a dent in their fat stores.

    Cardio alone will not get a person into good shape; diet determines a person's shape. Cardio determine's how healthy the heart is.

    rofl the writer of the article does sound like my aunt and uncle making excuses for why my 12 year old cousin is so in fat.

    she does dance and cheer leading (lol fat cheerleader) for exercise, but she has a thyroid condition

    Yeah, her "thyroid condition" must be why you let her douse everything she eats in ketchup.

    The fat people belief that eating "speeds up your metabolism" is one of the funniest excuses they make. Those diets geared towards speeding up your metabolism with frequent eating are diets that have 5 meals at 300-400 calories a meal, not 5 eating binges where you eat till your pants feel tight.

    Sons the cure for obesity in this country is simple. Round up all people who are morbidly obese in each individual town and cram them into shallow, olympic size swimming pools and let them sit there together in their own filth for 24 hours and think about what they have done to themselves. No food, no water, no bathroom, and let them see what its like for others to be around them.

    So you treat over weight people poorly, simply because of their weight problem? You really don't see anything wrong with that?

    I don't and never have. I look at druggies, atheists, smokers with disgust. They made those choices, fat people usually can't help it. Even if they can they aren't doing anything disgusting.

    I'm an addict to food, who doesn't love to eat? There are some who blow up with the same caloric intact a slim person takes in, we all know them. That guy who eats like a horse...skinny. That guy who eats anything at all he ballons up.

    When younger had to eat like a pig to stay over 240 (football) now I'm 280 and eat one meal a day, except on the weekends when it's... it!

    I didn't say I treated anyone different, I said what disgusted me.

    if calories in are less than calories out weight is lost, it's physics.
