Wake up an hour early for a morning jog? Out of the question I'm sure that would involve going to sleep a little earlier, and if they did that how would the spend all night in front of the TV?
I like how you suddenly started assuming I was talking about a friend. Where do I mention any of my friends? Oh, my friends don't do sports? Thanks for telling me. They watch TV during the night? Wow! Thank you for your valuable information. I'll be sure to bring their bad habits up next time I see them.
To the point now: so you think healthy food is cheaper than McDonalds? For so far my assumption that you knew anything about anything. You can get a McDonalds burger for 99 dollarcents. You can eat dirt cheap fast food. Why would you eat healthy food that takes knowledge, time to prepare, effort, ... if you can get delicious, fatty fastfood for a fraction of the price? Especially if you live in relative poverty the decision is quickly made.
As I said, your weight depends on your metabolism.

arglax, if you are taking in more calories than you burn, you will become fat. if you eat too much, you will become fat. metabolism affects how you gain weight waaaay less than you think. peoples' metabolisms generally only differ by about ten per cent
i have a disorder called "supraventricular tachycardia" which makes my heart beat way faster than it should, and my metabolism is only slightly faster by maybe 10-15 per cent.
keep in mind that this is a serious medical disorder that could potentially kill me (but i'm not stupid, so it wont)
nobody is fat because of a medical disorder. any disorder can only add about 10 pounds, and most of that is water weight
if a fat person tells you that, they are lying. besides, since when do fat activists know anything about the human body?

Correct. Where did I state otherwise? If you are taking in calories, you have to either lose them or they will turn into fat as a way of storage. It's the taking in where people differ. Your body won't "absorb" (bad term, just to illustrate) everything that goes in it. Some of it comes back out as waste. With some people, everything is waste. With some, there are still nutrients in the stool. That's where people differ.

Read please. That was obviously a response to Thellian's post. Lets keep up on a the discussion there is more than just me and you, apologizes for not quoting him too. I thought peoples comprehension skills were higher.
Ok well we will start with 99 "dollarcent" hamburgers. If that is all you're allowing for your budget to eat, and you're not homeless, you're an idiot. Put that on top of the pile of poor lifestyle choices made by fat people. Also if you only have 1 a meal for all 3 meals of the day(Don't start a new argument about 5 meals a day and all that bullshit). Chances are with that 1300~(Based on .99 mcdoubles with cheese) calories you ate you're probably not gaining weight anytime soon. Oh but of course that's not filling, so lets say you eat 2 for breakfast, 3 for lunch, 2 for dinner, we are up to roughly $7, we wont even factor in the fact you haven't bought a drink, ever. So you're up too 3000~ calories, its bad, but not insanely bad for eating nothing but .99 fast food. You also spent about $50. Should I open up a page on walmart and see what you can get for one person on $50 dollars week?
The only other problem I have with your statement is you said Mcdonalds is delicious. Nope.jpeg
And yes weight loss is dependent on your metabolism, but luckily for every person they can create a diet and exercise plan that will help with any problems you have, and check this out, you can actually increase your metabolism over time through proper diet and exercise *gasp*

You're not getting it. For the money you pay at a hamburger chain you get your food ready to go. Calculate in time, gas & electricity for going to the store, buying your food, preserving it in the fridge, cooking it, doing the dishes. Do you understand what life is about? The price you pay in walmart for the ingredients isn't the price what you pay for the food.

Diets? Are you talking about crash diets? Those are harmful to your system, no doctor would recommend those. Good diets? Those cost money and most of all, time. Not everyone has that. Especially not if you are, in fact, fat because of poverty.

"Increasing" the metabolism (vague and shady term there) would actually be worse for the obese people.
