There is also a vast amount of space between a normal human body and the bodies that most Americans now have. That has nothing to do with the unrealistic beauty standards in media (which is also a thing)
Obesity is bad, and it annoys me when people start defending it as being beautiful. It’s not, it will kill you in loads of unpleasant ways.
Nobody in the thread above mentioned obesity. Nobody is saying you have to be attracted to obese people. Or disputing that it’s unhealthy.
It remains true that there is a lot of space between this extreme and the extreme portrayed in media. Body weight is not the only standard, it’s one of many.
… Nobody mentioned obesity but we’re talking about body weight… I mean, it’s on topic, y’know.
And while body weight is not the only standard, it is a good indication of health. If you’re twice overweight, you will die sooner and likely in a not so comfortable way. Handhaving that away with “well, it’s one thing but there are others too” feels a bit disingenuous.
Yeah, there are loads of ways to die but this one is very preventable
I’ve read that American food is particularly bad, and you are right, but the factor contributing most is the metabolism with which you are born, other things important are levels of stress, ability to sleep well.
Exercise is important, yes. Eating right is as well. Just keep in mind that some things are outside your control, and if you think your health is your own achievement, that might not be entirely correct.
The factor that matters most isn’t your metabolism. If that were true we’d have sever overweight issues since thousands of years but we haven’t. The overweight pandemic is caused by too much food, period.
Want to lose weight? Whatever your metabolism is, eat less, eat healthier. It’s that simple.
Yeah, exercise a lot, that’s healthy and needed. It won’t make you think though unless you really exercise a lot (3+ hours a day, every day)
Easiest way is to just eat less. Eat smaller portions, stop eating processed foods, cut your sugar intake.
There are some super interesting videos of a physicist / chemist going over the basics of the chemistry involved and implications of it, I can send those if you’re interested

Get healthy, exercise, eat less, eat less sugars

Eh, no

Interested.
I’ve met people far more beautiful than most you can see in mainstream media, let alone adult materials.
(And in case one bitch with ASPD is stalking me, no, I don’t mean her ; that is, this is true for her too.)
