Of course, since you are an expert and a physician you know it all. Right? Overweight is 'over-weight'. Obesity is 'extremely overweight'.

This thread is all about suggestions for not taking the rather radical route of a new drug which in clinical trials has already proven in the long term a failure unless the patient adopts new life strategies, and instead suggests a more balanced way of life which removes such needs for such measures. Getting to the ideal weight gives you far more energy and makes you feel good every day. He is not stealing your enjoyment, is trying to give you the enjoyment of life. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkramer Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) One of several simple tests I perform just about every 30 days (I'm 75 years old) to confirm that I am maintaing my health. The laggard's will complain that it is not a legitimate test. Go away...! Try the McDonald's/ Pizza Hut test...on your own time. I love controversy...especially with ignorant people...!

Not really - this is part of a long conversation where he has shown that he despises fat people and enjoys trying to shame them... My contention at this juncture is telling him that even if people do not hold his values - there is no reason to treat them in a mean and mocking fashion... Even if people are obese through their own poor habits, they really don't need someone mocking them. Everyone has feelings. I have known some wonderful people who were obese and they suffered from fat shamers... fortunately, they have turned their lives around, but they still carry the scars of people who think they are superior because they don't have that same problem..

LikeItHot Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I dropped 11 kilos in 6 weeks. I eat 1000 calories a day of anything I want and walk an hour a day. The secret is making your own meals. Learn the secrets of tasty low cal cooking and leave the quick fixes to the masses. Delicious Thai pork jowls was in the menu tonight and will be freezer vacuum packed in portion control sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
