          Are you legitimately suggesting 99.9% of obese people are overweight because it’s fun for them? Because that’s what you just said.

              I think we have very different definitions of what “choice” means. If you lack the ability to eat less, then you aren’t choosing now are you?

                  Bruh, why are you acting incredulous when I read what you said back to you. You said that they lack the ability to stop eating. I didn’t say that shit.

                  You also said that 99.9% of obese people choose to be that way. Again, you said, this, not me. So which is it? It can’t be both. You have to pick one.

                  Either provide a fucking source or admit you just hate fat people.

          What I’m suggesting is that the only food available to low-income households is high in fat and low in nutrients because that’s what’s cheapest to produce.

          Unless you’re about to suggest being poor is a lifestyle choice too I suggest you stop stuffing words in my mouth.

              Calories aren’t the problem. Nutrition is. No doubt you’ve heard it said that it’s important to eat a balanced diet. If you can’t afford to eat anything other than McDonald’s, only eating two meals a day total instead of three is not going to put more greens in your diet. It’s just going to make you hungrier.

                  It doesn’t matter how much McDonalds you eat, you’re not going to get a healthy and nutritious meal from it.

                  Thank you for demonstrating my point. Eating less McDonald’s won’t make you healthier either. If you can’t get a nutritious meal once in a while, you’re not going to be healthy no matter how much or how little you eat or much you exercise.

                  Also microwave meals are a lot healthier (and a lot more epensive) than McDonald’s.

      Seriously though, I don’t think the latest studies on psychology back that up. I recommend anyone interested look into it. Fascinating stuff
