The people who post about how fat loss is harder than just eating properly. Apparently people are insensitive to their mental state?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7iTP-HaoFg <-- excuses about why he's fat
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dR7LEQYP4rA <-- getting mad at fat shaming
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoTQ3aOEz54
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ1cUup0ATg <-- his drawn "life story" (a sob story again)

This guy has at least 20+ videos dedicated to talking about his mental state.

It's *almost* as bad as modern 'feminism', this whole "positive body image for all shapes and sizes" movement.

It seems like modern feminism, positive body image, etc, etc, all stem from the same problem: Desktop intellectualism. My definition of "desktop intellectualism" is pretty straightforward: Reasoning at one's computer, and ignoring the real world (not putting anything into practice). This often comes with a significant lack of empathy, due to extreme introversion and selfishness.

This interests me since my little brother suffers from mental illness, and he demonstrates similar thinking patterns. All internal reasoning, no doing.

Fat loss is hard because I don't want to eat properly lol.

I should probably start complaining about that.

I feel that fat loss is hard.. It's hard because of a few things..

1. Once you add adipose tissue to your body, you don't get rid of it.. Causing major weight gain after initial loss, and diving back into food/laziness
2. Its hard to move when you're fat.. Seriously, I will never forget the first time I ran on a treadmill when I was 320+ lbs.
3. You find any coping mechanism possible before finally owning up to being a lazy fat fuck.. Literally any, its everybody elses fault but your own.. Oh fuck off fatty and eat a piece of broccoli
4. It takes time.. And most larger people aren't notorious for being patient people.. They like the instant gratification you get from McDonalds and 7-11 slurpees.. If you don't see instant results, you're discouraged.. It's still true for me today.. It pisses me off when I cant add weight to a squat after a fucking month of lifting.

but srsly the only person he is directly effecting is himself.. It's going to be his problem when he has myopathy, diabetes, peripheral vascular issues and all other kinds of shit because losing fat is just too damn hard.

fat loss is the easiest concept to understand
most people don't have the drive or discipline to apply it.

anyone who says its hard though is just a lazy fat sack of shit.
no sympathy for overweight people who complain about being overweight and won't do anything to change it.

thats if they are unhappy with themselves being overweight.
if they are content with it, well then good for them.

same view applies to any aspect of someones life.

have a job and hate it? leave it.
with a partner that you aren't completely happy with? leave them.

same basic principal applies, you can change your life for the better in a matter of minutes even seconds with the right kind of thinking.

as you said, I'm with this 100% of the way for all facets of life

I've gained more weight than I would have liked, but I'm not complaining about it. As soon as I care enough to do something to change it, it will fall off. But, for now, I am taking advantage of my love for cooking delicious food lol.

I don't know how many times I have said what you said to other people in regards to money/career though. People are always bitching about how they hate their circumstances in life - like, fucker, take action.
