Contrary to popular belief, the obesity “epidemic” doesn’t say much about the health of american citizens as a whole. It is not inherently unhealthy to be obese, there are plenty of obese people who are perfectly healthy and in good shape and their levels are fine. But because we live in an inherently fatphobic society we are conditioned to think fat is unhealthy. Although it CAN be unhealthy there are many reasons why someone could be obese; eating disorders, using food as a coping mechanism, overeating compulsively, PCOS and messed up hormones, medication, chronic illness, etc.
Obesity is not a disease, it is not an “epidemic”. Honestly the only thing it really demonstrates is that poor people don’t have enough access to cheap and healthy food and that we don’t have enough support for fat people suffering from eating disorders. I’m not saying “we should all be obese, it’s great and awesome!!” I’m saying not all obese people are these lazy unfit people like you’d see on my 600 lb life
