Yeah well it's not like I love being fat. We all know fat is bad, and I wish I had less of it, but it's not like my adipose is going to go away by scaring it with more bad news about why it sucks to be fat. Once you're fat, not being fat anymore is a really hard problem, which is why fat people aren't really known for eventually being skinny some day again, but there's a high prevalence of skinny people who once were fat eventually getting fat again. I've been fighting my weight for near a decade now, and I used to be a pretty athletic individual in my 20's.
I don't think skinny people understand. Maintaining weight feels like starvation to fat people, for at least some of them, like me. If you only eat enough food to just maintain your weight it hurts just as much as dieting. That will probably never change for us, even if we lose a lot of weight (and I have lost a lot of weight). So fat people have to be on painful diets the rest of their lives, just to not get fatter.
So my advice to young people is, don't get fat. If you're already fat, you're pretty much fucked.
