There are many ways to speed up ones metabolism. Dr Google can tell you. Basically snack veggies that are low GI every hour or 2 all day and every day that will keep your metabolism ticking over without weight gain.

Key word, "you think"  I've been border line hypothyroid for years.  Wish it was as simple for everyone as you infer. Then we wouldn't have a global pandemic of obesity.  For those who don't know GI = Glycemic Index.  there is also GL=Glycemic Load to consider.

 

Thank you for your well thought out "advice" "Mr Wizard."

My thoughts exactly.....how in any possible way is it any of my bussiness what others do with their bodies. 

   There are people on here I have noticed that like to talk about other people in a derogitary manner...bald, fat old etc., etc.,..I suspect it comes from a need to feel superiour, a lack of security within themselves.

    No one is going to tell me that a person who askes such a question as this is doing so out of genuine concern in order to improve their understanding and be a more compassionet person....it is purly and simply a "put down". 

Might be a good idea to get one's own house in order before trying to straighten out other people's houses.

For the record....I am not overweight myself (although I am getting older and balding).

You sir are a genuine "rocket scientist" and headed for a dead end if that is your take away from this.  IMHO.

Its a bit of a cycle.. you get fat.. less energy eat more get fatter then when you lose the weight you gain energy, confidence and so on. Problem is in keeping the weight off. Because it really takes a permanent change. You can't go back to what you did before because that is the way you got fat. 

 

I got fat by overeating and drinking (I always exercised.. but it just can't correct a bad diet). Once I had my diet in check (already exercised the resulting body transformation was great). Now I am tempted at times to overeat as I do love food however I just think back on how I was and it usually goes away. But if you exercise a lot you get more insulin sensitive and can handle carbs and other things better its ok to once in a while let go. 

 

Problem is we are not all created equal, some lose fat easy others don't (we can all lose it just takes more effort to lose it and keep it off). I have dated petite girls that ate as much as I do and not get fat. It annoyed me at times exercising this much having so much muscle and still can't eat as much as some of those girls. Then again I build muscle easy (ok needs hard hours in the gym but it come easier as for some). We all got our genetics and we have to live with them. But nobody HAS to be overweight (certain sick people excluded)

Man does this sound familiar.   Almost just like me.  It's a struggle but it's worth it.

"Really will anyone give a candid response?  Or perhaps ask a friend?  What does it feel like on a daily basis carrying around a gut like that."

 

I have a friend who is a bright guy, hard working, and 450 lbs, at one time. Of course he struggled with many different diets, failing time and again. He is a big guy and has genetic issues too. Sure, there were emotional problems that led to over eating as well. And if you are genuinely concerned about his pain, which was quite substantial, much of it came from the cruelty of others. So, try and be kind and compassionate to others who are battling with issues you might not face. 

 

There is an epidemic of obesity, and it is saddest amongst the children. If you have a real interest there are some good documentaries on how this all came about, 80% of supermarket items have added sugar and not of the natural type, but that has been produced in labs [fructose etc] - - when the demand came for low fat foods, taking out the fat left no flavor and so sugar was added. This sugar is 8x more addictive than cocaine and it is everywhere. 

 

If you are just taking a shot by calling them nine months pregnant, and then trying to sound compassionate afterwards by feigning curiousity...

 

Well, my 450 lb friend is now under 300 lbs and is working to help others less fortunate in a professional capacity [not weight]. He is a kind, considerate caring human being, and no matter his weight issues, a wonderful person. And not someone who would be mean to others. 

I understand but you did miss/misinterpret my point.  Read through my posts.  I am a strong patient advocate.  I loved them and they loved me, most that is.

Or people don't care what other people think. They are happy with there life style. Who is anyone else to judge how people look and what they eat or how they exercise. 

really if you care that much about other people's choices and how they look you have problem.

It isn't just "the look' obesity is one of the major pathologies that is heading the health care system to disaster.  As well as putting incredible stress on family, care givers and primary care physicians.  Surely you can't be serious?!

I believe you  (i can use google too to prove a point, it all depends on the source. and yours are not really holding up) But why should i prove that to you. Deep down you know it yourself but just don't want to admit it and your looking at excuses. I feel sorry for you. 

 

I prefer real evidence from studies and those have shown fat people die younger. Even if older.. the quality of life sucks, diabetic, ED problems to name but a few.

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2009/mar/18/health-nhs-obesity-smoking

 

Anyway I could care less about fat people, they made their choices and set their priorities. I just have different ones and am happy with my choices. No need to follow what I do because of me. Everyone is in control of his own life and if you want to be fat so be it. Often its not a case of wanting to be fat but enjoying the lifestyle that leads to getting fat too much (understandable). 

 

I prefer to eat healthy and exercise and not be as fat as I was. It sure gives me a lot more energy, and i look a lot better in my clothes then I did before. Anyway as long as your happy with your life who cares. I am happy with mine. 

There ya go rob being rational and straightforward again... What is it with you?

Genetic flaws are just excuses.. we have not evolved a lot in the last 100 years and before the was no obesity. So our genes are not different from back then when there was no obesity. So genetics don't play a part as large that we can't stay lean. Sure it cost some people (me among others) a lot more effort to stay lean then others. But nobody has to be obese (unless you truly have a disease)

Exactly.

Quite often the girls prefer the 6 pack guys who spot a 6 pack don't have to pay for it, those with a barrel can use money to overcome this problem. So if you have money and don't mind being loved for it then sure a barrel is no problem. 

However "everyone" pays for the barrel with higher insurance premiums.  My health care is free being a US Combat Vet.  Fat/lazy people screw everyone including themselves.

You cannot compare the UK and probably the USA with Thailand, where it gets ridiculous here is that so many of these big fat guys go to Pattaya, rent a bargirl dress up in wifebeaters, covered in Tattoos, then stroll about looking like the cat that got the cream, and are so stupid they don't realise that everyone is laughing at them including their rental bargirl.

 

But these girls will soon stop laughing when their big fat Farang gets on top of them.

Hate to admit it but you do have a point.  Money talk BS walks.

My Dad also and he died of it.

 

The biggest single health issue caused by overweight is significantly life shortening, Type II Diabetes whose onset is very, very frequently linked to a high Body Mass Index coupled with a sedentary lifestyle. 

 

 

Thank you.  Sorry about your dad.  Good to hear another post from the "sane minority" though.

Well, any time you head a topic calling men '9 months pregnant', it is going to set a derogatory tone - so, if I got a wrong impression of you, that is where it stems from. I don't know if you realize how difficult it is to lose that excess belly fat and how quickly it comes back... losing it is one battle, but the stats I see say that 90% of people gain it back... if you want to go after a cause, there is a documentary that I saw recently, I think it was called "Fed Up" and it talks about the added sugars that are in near everything in the supermarket. My pet peeve is the misleading labelling, the cereals and products packed with sugar that still have "Nature" in the brand name. 

 

When I was a kid, it seemed that every class had one overweight kid, not more. There are so many now. School lunches are run by McD and pizza hut. Sugary soft drinks are everywhere, even things that sound healthy like fruit juices are loaded with sugar. These people are good at advertising and junk food is in your face. I could go on and on, but if you really are interested, check out the documentary. I have seen a few and the history of it is fascinating. If that is not the correct name for the doc, you can pm me and I will get it for you - - but you should know the facts and understand the battle before being critical...

My best before date has passed along with my desire to diet and watch all my body's intake. I just wish to enjoy the time I have left eating and drinking and doing what I like. I am sure if I took one of those 6,000 bahts promotional checkups the hospitals offer they would find 2 or 3 things wrong and have me placed on their founding membership list for lifetime treatment with bags of drugs. I just keep putting along and strokin the keys. 

Do you do regular maintenance on your cars or just "wing it?"  Do you mind flying on aircraft whose mechanics just do what they like.  Can you see the madness in that?

This reminds me of a stunt pulled by an insurance company some years ago....

 

Insurer: "Our BMI chart says your xx KGs overweight, That'll be £ (twice as much!) please!"

 

Me: "Whaaattt? I neither drink nor smoke! How many of you 'normal' customers can match that?"

 

A kidney prob went undetected for 30 years and lead to unexplained weight gain but is thankfully now being reversed. Cardio vascular wise I'm fine, not least through regular excersise, but I'll always be a tellytubby although did manage to keep it down prior to the age of 40 as I was a soldier and always on the move.

 

Perhaps the OP could answer my question to insurers and also reveal his age? :)

Are you mad?  I've already said I'n 64 if you read the thread.  And my health care is free as a US Combat Vet.

I don't think it would be in any way unfair to reply that for every one person like yourself with a valid medical reason for being overweight, there are probably several hundred or even several thousand who simply eat more calories a day than their body requires and who thus gain weight. The heavier you get the more calories you burn so eventually most people reach an overweight equilibrium state. However there are, of course, those whose weight doesn't settle and who continue  pile on the Kilos; these unfortunate people are the ones who make onto the television and into the newspapers when the fire brigade have to extricate them from their dwellings as no Ambulance crew could safely lift them.

 

As being significantly overweight is known to be one of the primary causes of Type II Diabetes, it is a very serious problem for health providers across the world. I don't think people realise just how serious this illness can be. Amongst others, the "side effects" of Type II Diabetes can be Cataracts and Diabetic Retinopathy which can lead to blindness. Peripheral Vascular Disease is another unpleasant "side effect". That can lead to limbs needing to be amputated, grave chronic ulceration of the extremities particularly legs and feet which can also eventually lead to amputation. It also substantially enhances a sufferer's risk of cardio-vascular accidents (heart attacks and strokes). 

Thanks.  But why screw up the thread with facts?
