Nice nice nice…We are lazy as hell…they spend the first 30 of their years on Earth talking about “live how you want, you only live once”…then when we see the results of that lifestyle, we start wanting to look like we did when we were 18 again…but hold up..do we hit the gym and change up the diet? nah, we go get some hydroxy cut, and order Diet sodas with our value meals..then yes of course, by the time we hit 50, and start getting sick, we blame old age..This article is dead on the point..real healthcare reform starts with the choices individuals make!

EAT TO LIVE not the other way around!

Lol!!! That is the funniest article I’ve read in a minute! LOL!

This is foul

THIS IS THE TRUTH…FAT LAZY PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE NO SAY. ITS THEIR OWN FAULT. DUH

I understand what they’re saying but what about the people who are naturally big and can’t lose weight no matter how hard they try? Those are the ones that should have a say…them and the people with naturally big bones. Now the ones who just eat and eat cause they can and sit around and watch tv all day…those are the one that shouldn’t say anything cause its their fault they’re fat.

the only thing i agree about this article is the fact that fatty foods should be taxed. the cafe at my job raises the prices on healthy fruits and vegs but junk such as fries are really cheap to purchase.

All fat people are not UNhealthy, and all thin people are not healthy. I disagree with this whole article. There are good and bad things to everything and everyone. Why should only fatty foods be taxed? Aren’t we paying ENOUGH taxes already? We pay taxes for everything we buy and then we get a “refund” at the end of the year just to go right back out there and pay the taxes all over again. And if blacks are the “fattest”, all I can say about that is: FAT=Fabulous And Together

sounds rather angry and closed minded to me you can’t just make a foolish comment like that there cause and effect for everything that’s like saying let these crack head dope heads or any substance abuse person just die they don’t deserve no help because they put it into there bodies when most of the time there’s a serious reason behind it. being plus size or as u might put it a fat ass i can tell you now I’m not lazy don’t sit around and eat all day i do exercise and try to stay active in the pass 2 years I’ve made some changes in my diet and life what i can share is that when i was broke the food that is bad for you is what i could afford it does cost less than healthy food i don’t buy much meat these days mostly veges and it seems i spend more money while i do get the point and that could be said to everyone not just fat people make change in your life first. what i learned is it takes nothing to criticize no effort nothing it’s easy to tear people down and unfortunately it makes some people feel good to do it but how about building them up instead of telling them how fat they are and how worthless their opinions are why don’t to give them some health advice,exercise tips i know you’ve heard the saying you can catch more bee’s with honey than vinegar

How to create a fat free hood? Make healthy choices more affordable. If you can buy 5 packs of Ramen noodles for a dollar that’s going to last longer than say….1 serving of salmon. You always hear these stories on television and read the articles but nothing is being done.

FAWK ALL THAT,,,SOMEONE SAID EAT TO LIVE,,,LMAO,,,I LIVE TO EAT,,,LOL.

MF’S CENSORED THE WORD PA$$,,,,LMAO,,,,WHAT A BUNCH OF WEENIES,,,

To the dummy that wrote this article n made the ignorant comment. Black people are the majority of the poverty population and guess what the cheap food that they can afford are the ones that are unhealthy stupid. Think about it dumb dumb, u can get a bag of chips, n candy 2 for a $1, but can u can salad mix or fresh greens for the same. Instead of the healty organic food being so expensive and yes I know because I purchase organic vegetables that cost way to much how about u idiots switch it up. Put the high prices on the fast n fattening foods. You are so incredibly stupid to me, it is a set up stupid, come on dollar menu, they dont have a sald on that menu, they have the fat crap on it. It is how it because those that are handling everything do it on purpose. If the healthy foods were at reasonable prices than there would be healthy people but they switched it because they know what they are doing and how they can blind side stupid people like u. For your information im a big girl and proud of it. I exercise, 4 times a week and watch what I eat, and guess what i am healthier than some skinny or “healthy” people I know. So for you dummy writer if u want to take the fat out the hood, how about u since u know everything dummy make the healthier foods more affordable. Of course someone living in poverty is going to go for the bargain stupid what else are they supposed to do. The cost of living is increasing not decreasing and yet we arent get money. So how bout u switch it and make the healty food less expensive and raise and tax the crap out of the junk food. But dummy it is a set up cheap food is fattening and the healthier foods cost to much. So give them something they can afford and we would be all good closed minded p***k. I hate ignorance….

damn dis writer was a douche bag… get a life

matter of fact naw dis “article” makes me mad…. dis motherf**ka and da ignorant a$$es who agree wit em f*ck u. u dont know the circ**stances of someone being overweight… health problems can lead to being over weight like problems with yo theroid so do some research before u say stupid s**t like this ignorant a$$$ motherf*uckas

Here’s the funny thing for all the losers on here saying that overweight people should not get healthcare…If we go by the BMI (Body Mass Index) scale then probably 1 out of every 2 people that commented is considered overweight. Im 6ft tall and 27 years old…I weigh a solid 210…Im in really good shape (I can run 2 miles in 14 mins flat) according to the BMI though Im overweight and should weigh roughly 189 pds(which is ridiculous I would have to starve myself in order to weigh that much)…some people are just naturally big and I dont agree the opinion that overweight people should not get healthcare.

Folks – this was originally written by Bill Maher; a white dude who loves black women (and from what I’ve seen of him, ALL SHAPES and sizes) so consider the source……

If Fat people aren’t allowed to complain about health care nor should people who are heavy smokers and alcoholics and unhealthy skinny people.

Gods_chosenman
BMI or Body Mass Index isnt an necessarily accurate for a person with lots of muscle. So if your a body builder or an athlete there is going to be some room for error as muscle weighs more than fat. But for the general population a BMI over 25 is overweight and over 30 is considered obese. 66% of americans over 20 are overweight, 34% of these roughly 72 million americans are obese. And there is about 9 million kids aged 2 to 19 that are overweight or obese.

THE OBESITY EPIDEMIC IS CAUSED BY PEOPLE CONSUMING MORE CALORIES THEN THEY EXPEND, simply meaning if you eat more than you move then your gaining weight, and not muscle either. its that simple. you can eat Mcdonalds 3 times a day everyday if you run and workout everyday and not be overweight.
the problem is some many peopl………not even going to go into it. the solution is to move more. thats it. MOVE MORE!

there is no reason for people to be fat or obese..hit the gym change your diet..so fat people stop conplaining

EAT A FAT DICK…TALKING ABT FAT PEOPLE…WHO THE F**K ARE YOU?

i know not all skinny ppl are healthy…but anyone overweight to obese are always unhealthy. how are you going to say not all fat people are unhealthy. and they’re holding excess weight? and being at risk for all kinds of diseases. they wouldn’t have to worry about being called fat if they’d take better care of themselves. the truth hurts.

I myself am not fat anymore, I stay in the gym to stay healthy now I weight 155 witha athletic build but all you skinny muhf**kas get fat and lose that s**t you don’t knoaw how much of a struggle it is to do that s**t and I feel for fat people cause I use to be one but you gotta make the change for yourself. Just telling a person s**t like what kaandiie said makes the person feel worst and in most cause stuff their face until they are overfull. I encourage people to lose weight but that s**t aint cool just calling people out on they flaws, you wouldn’t like if everybody you saw stared at you when you walked by, laughed, and then you hear them say yo p***y stank lol

1st of all, if some of you ignoramuses would pick up a book and read, there was a book (forgot the author, but I think they took his book off of market anyway), stating that when the government began injecting hormones into the meat of animals that we mainly eat, it was targeted towards prominently black folks. Just like they injected syphillis into the black men of the 50′s and 60′s, they are linking being fat to the black population. That’s why there are so many young girls having the body of 30 yr old women these days. Now, on the other hand, everything is now remote controlled to where the things that once had us moving our muscles to do are now controlled by machines and computers. The country (b’cuz it’s not like this in any other country being that we are suppose to be one of the richest countries in the world), has made Americans lazy and subliminally doing things in medicines to target certain racial groups. I do agree that one should do any and everything to become more healthy and takes the strength of one’s inner ability to do so. But before you ppl get to talking about the stigma of one being fat or what not, research. Feed your mind and don’t be so quick to judge or place blame for something that some ppl may or may not have control over. Educate and motivate. Why would you be so quick to hate and depriciate another human being? And that’s another thing I can’t stand about the ppl in this world.

fat, skinny, blue, red, white, black, african, hispanic, asian,…whatever. We are all people, we all deserve better/affordable health care! This article and whoever thinks that larger people don’t have the right to complain…are just ignorant trash. You are ignorant because u believe this, and then u are ignorant to think that the majority of the people who are “large” chose to be that way. A lot of it has to do with genetics and the rest has to do with the household. If you raise and teach your young an unhealthy lifestyle then thats how they are going to live. In a world thats all about booksmarts to maintain a comfortable lifestyle, all the focus is on education and not healthy leading a healthy lifestyle. By the time people hit adulthood their spirits are already broken so u cant expect to much from somebody like that. I know because my home-gurl has always been struggling with her weight and its so hard to see her like that. She doesnt like to go out and be around people. If i wasnt willing to workout with her I dont think she would. All of that “you’re lazy” b.s is just crap, once more it goes deeper. Look outside the box.

but back on track…this article is dumb and if people truly believe this then…WOW thats all i have to say

oh yea and what msveevee1 said…but at the same time healthier lifestyles goes a long way

I also believe that ppl need to love themselves first for who they are and what the look like and then everything else will be easier to fall into place. Society puts alot of strain on ppl just to live. Do this! Do that! Don’t do this! Don’t do that! Wear this! Put that on! And the list goes on and on. It’s like puppets on a string. Ppl will listen to anything and everything because they need validation and to feel accepted. If the media was to flip everything around and start saying that being fat ir having excess fat consumption was the thing to do, dumb azz puppeteers would run and be big as a damn house. Too many followers and not enough leaders is all I have to say.

1st of all the word is overweight or plus size not FAT. @kaandiie there is no need to be rude. are you gonna pay for some1′s gym membership, are you gonna cook there food for them…shut up!!! with your ignorant self. @Hokage-Sama69 some people are built to be what you would call plus size. for some women being a size 6 8 or 10 is not healthy. my mother and myself are very healthy but neither of us are skinny. like u said skinny does not equate to healthy. it is based on you BMI. everyone has the right to complain about healthcare…simply because without americans cant afford to get sick or get hurt or go to the dentist etc. healthcare is not about weight alone. i mean really people!

fat is just that fat,you can make up all the pretty sounding words you like it but its time to bust a move.LOSE WEIGHT FOLKS AND LIFE MIGHT GET ALITTLE BIT BETTER.and for the fat sista whos talking shyt about bmi and all the other shyt you just read or saw on some health program,if you got that much time to read about it then you got time to do something about it(FATTSO).

LMAO I laugh at people like kennyd4. Its amazing how as a black/african descent, you’re ok with trying to break another human being. BUT you have a problem when the “white man” does it to our own people. Don’t post anything unless there is intelligence behind what u are saying because obviously you are very ignorant to the fact. I dont blame you though, many of our people face the same problem…

first of no ones going to tax fatting food. its not the governments responsibility to make sure youre healthy its your job. alot of it has to do with genetics. people should be able to eat what they want. if the government starts trying to control what people eat next thing you know there starting to control where you live where you work what you do and who you marry. but if you actually have a problem with being fat get off your fat ass and run. plan and simple its common since you dont need free health care to do that.

To kennyd4′s ignorant behind…I need you not to be so disrspectful. As someone who is plus size but very healthy I take great offense to you actin like you have all the answers. You dont know how people live, and it is true you can workout but your BMI may say different, take the time to educate yourself. because it is quite obvious that you do not.

MOST of our health issues come from eating the wrong foods
