That zepplin-like swine’s day will come sooner. Did she join a gym? Join and quit a week later? I’ve seen it a million times.....

I, too, was fat. I ran my keister off, and lifted up a storm. I probably read an hour or more PER DAY for 3 months about little tips for “how to”. A lot of people couldn’t believe it was the same person.

MANY DAYS I didn’t want to exercise —many days I STILL don’t want to.

After years, I have seen MAAAANY cases where trainers encourage these people, and MOST of the session is this Jabba The Hut declaring, “it’s too hard” —super clear how he/she got there in the first place, and yet more clear that THERE is where they’ll stay.

Now we have this miracle surgery, and these “have it all now, in return for zero consequences” people are deciding yet again that THIS is the quick ticket.

It is —for AWHILE. Then, sure enough, things turn around.

If you dig a little, often you find out that they have no idea how to structure their eating decisions, and exercise is “too hard”. That, or they don’t have enough time —they wake up right before work, then work themselves into a good fatigue, then come home utterly exhausted to hungry kids.

HOW ABOUT GOING TO SLEEP EARLY, WAKE UP EARLY, THEN EXCERCISE?

Tooooooo hard....!

“We got some good fascism juice going, I see. Stay classy! Your day is coming.”

And to paraphrase Martin Niemoeller (with apologies, but the principle is the same):

“First they came for the smokers and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t a smoker — let’s judge them, curse them out instead

Then they came for the obese and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t obese — let’s judge them, curse them out instead

Then they came for the elderly and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t old — let’s judge them, curse them out instead, do they want to live forever, let them die!

Then they came for the chronically ill and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t ill — let’s curse them out, they are using healthcare too much, do they want to live forever, let them die!

Then they came for me, and there was nobody left to speak out for me.”
