Why Are You So Fat? I Actually Know The Answer!



Diets - we know they don't work. Your body gets used to the current state. When you starve it, it waits you out - and when you go off the diet it returns to that state with reinforcements to insulate against the next time you starve it. We know this, so why do we keep doing it? Because fat is unhealthy and we know we need to lose weight. Diabetes, all shirts becoming belly shirts, getting your big fat ass stuck in doorways, people saying "awooooogah!" when you walk by, it is stressful and unpleasant to be a lard ass. It's a vicious cycle. But you can't help it, and blame yourself for being weak. Well, you are weak, but not because you lack the willpower to stay on a diet, but because you are not addressing the cause of your obesity. Here is the key - It is NOT overeating and storing your cottage cheese leaden ass exclusively on the couch. The problem is something else, and obesity is a symptom, just one of the results of an unrelated problem.


The diet industries won't tell you what you have to do to keep the weight off, because they need the repeat business. If everyone got slim, they would all be out of business. How, you say? By addressing the real issues. People are fat because they are lazy and overeat. They overeat because they have severe psychological problems that override their self-control. Think about it. The more obese someone is, the more severe their psychological problems. If you want to keep your weight off - you must become balanced, you must face your demons and become secure in yourself - and only then can you make a lasting change. If you are fat, it's because you hate yourself. It's not the outer weight that you hate, it's the person you are inside that you can't live with. Admit what your problems are, face them, and finally learn to like yourself. Then you will want to take care of yourself and be healthy, and you will, and it will be easy. It's all in your mind. So - get confident, stupid!


That's not to say that all thin people are well balanced. Quite the contrary, some of the most psychotic people I have had the misfortune to work with have indeed taken very good care of their apprearance. Many people's psychological problems don't manifest themselves as overeating. It ranges from simple attention whore to severe self mutilation. I'm talking outrageous clothes, to bleached hair, to tattoos and piercings. These people also have many demons that need to be faced. Only then can you be secure in yourself, and not crave the attention or approval of others.


Here's the bottom line: if you are fat, or care what other people think like this little piggy, you need help. So go get it, loser. Don't bother asking me, I will mock you like everyone else does.
