The Picard ManeuverPerspectives keep rapidly changing
OKaybinPeople aren't shoveling foods into their gullets anymore, they're dumping truckloads into it and proud of it.
Alternatively: Capitalism has robbed the working class of any time for exercise while simultaneously pushing food that is dirt cheap to make with artificial additives that leave to excess consumption.
But that doesn’t fit the convenient narrative of “it’s all society’s fault,” which pushes all blame and need for action off the observer.
🇸🇵🇪🇨🇺🇱🇦🇹🇪🇷As a not fat person that doesn’t have time to exercise, it’s not hard to avoid one or two meals a day. Fat people eat too much, period. Don’t blame capitalism.
Food deserts exist, man. I’ve been there. Living in a shithole area with no shops supplying fresh foods, and no convenient transport links to such shops
You’re probably just gonna go to the overpriced shop and buy processed crap, y’know?
Which is fine, just buy less of it. Calories matter. I understand what poverty is, trust me, but using poorness as an excuse to blame capitalism for your bad choices is silly. There’s plenty wrong with capitalism already without blaming it for people’s choices.
If processed food is the onky option, how exactly do you “just buy less of it”? Eat nothing? Be serious, dude.
I’ve had great success losing weight and saving money at Taco Bell.
Reading the calories and reading the body’s signals are key. It took awhile for me to separate the craving for flavors from the pangs of genuine hunger.
Nutrition tho…
The focus on weight, specifically, is a mistake. Health is far more than just weight. Eating junk food is bad, full stop, and will cause issues for health no matter your portions. This is the problem.
Diabetes, risk of cancer, addiction, malnutrition, even mental health problems, all are risk factors on a diet of processed food, even so-called “healthy” diets.
