Yeah, that's bullshit.
Poverty isn't exactly helping, but there are more than enough people with enough resources and excessive body weight.
In the US, ¾ of the population is overweight, are you suggesting ¾ of the population is poor?
I used to be fat. It's not a monetary issue. In fact, I lost weight when I moved out and had very little money.
One person says losing weight is possible because they did it once. Another person says they cannot lose weight because they've been trying for years and it's not happening. Which one is true? Must be the one that I'm most closely aligned with!
One person ignoring the statistics offered by another to roll in the manure of their own smugness.
