I visit family in other states and I get comments like "I can't believe you are so thin." For context I am a healthy weight and I eat what I consider a reasonable diet. I sit and smile while I watch them drink soda and eat pure sugar and salt. I don't care about your life choices but don't act surprised by someone that's a normal weight.

Sorry, but when people complain about obesity and talk about how easy it is for them to be healthy, all I think about is my brother. He eats more than me and isn't any more active than me, but hes borderline underweight and can't keep weight on to save his life. YES, people don't take care of themselves, I know, that's not my point. At my most active, most healthy eating part of my life, the best shape I've ever been, I was still considered overweight, so forgive me for rolling my eyes at this.

Im not trying to be mean or anything, but how active and how healthy were you eating at that time?

[–] ChexMax@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, the skinniest couple I know eats candy and taco bell all day long (they're approaching 30 so that teen metabolism is long gone). They're not unusually active or anything, just thin. My husband is thin and has basically zero regard for his diet. Southern amounts of butter on everything. I'm much more careful than him, I enjoy plain veggies as snacks (as opposed to his pastries) and I'm ten pounds more than him at 7 inches shorter than him.

I eat fast food a lot and people have this perception about me but the reality is I only usually eat one meal a day so overall I'm not overeating. Admittedly it's terrible nutritionally but my living arrangement limits my options.

I realize some people struggle more than others.

I'm mostly talking about the extreme obesity.
