Although if you were truly and I mean truly committed then could you not spend an hour a day exercising at some point? Or choosing a vegetable or fruit over french fries. It's all about the choices that we make going forward. It might be harder for some people but that's when you really have to look in the mirror and decide what you really want. You have to look inside yourself and make that choice, same applies to quitting smoking and drinking. If you really want to do it, then you can.. it's all psychological. It's definitely harder for some people but it's not impossible.

Exactly....people are mentally soft. They lack commitment. Then they have others enabling them to be that way by coming up with phrases like "Fat shaming" and Thin privilege". You can call obesity a disease if you like but many diseases are preventable with committed lifestyle choices.

You choose to smoke, the diseases you get were voluntary
You drink too much...same thing
You stuff your face with food and never get off the couch, then the hypertension, blocked arteries and such are a choice.

Yes, this is a bit over the top but our society is so quick to jump on things and make excuses for it. Next time something isn't going right ion your world no matter what it is, you should look long and hard in the mirror first.
