ITT We argue about how fatties get fat, why they stay fat, and what they should do instead - It's a mystery! It's an obesity sperging containment thread!

An entire prepared box of CHEETOS® Mac 'n Cheese Cheesy Jalapeño is 825 calories. 112 grams of carbs, 32 grams of fat.
It is absurd to think that anyone can "intuitively" eat food like this, which has been manufactured in a laboratory to be as delicious and appetizing and addictive as possible. Human bodies have not evolved to eat foods like "Corn Syrup Solids" or "Autolyzed Yeast Extract" or "Disodium Guanylate."

I don't know why they don't get into the water and walk around in a pool. The water would take a lot of stress off their joints. There are also exercise machines like ellipticals and rowing machines that give a really good aerobic workout without stressing joints too.
All that takes time, money, and attracts attention.

You know what weight loss method adds time to your day, saves you money, and doesn't attract anybody's attention? Just not eating as much.

Telogen effluvium is temporary, if scary AF. That hair grows back. Chantal looks to have androgenic alopecia as we've long since determined. Dihydrotestosterone in the scalp is the problem here and after menopause, surgical or natural, there is more of this compared to estrogen, which is why you usually see this on older women. Taking estrogen pills is some help, but not the same. She has waited too long to do anything about it. If someone jumps right on it with a laser comb and Rogaine, it can be considerably slowed down. But this would be the least of her worries now. No one dies from going bald even if it's embarrassing. Diabetes does make hair loss from all sources worse because it affects the circulation, and if circulation to the scalp is poor, more hair is lost. Follicles that are starved miniaturize and become inactive over time. Not having dyed over her grays makes it look even worse.

Chantal is just a dumpster fire. Nothing is going to get fixed.
Cutting down on carbs would actually help her. She stated before that she has PCOS. They recommend a low carb diet (under 70 grams a day, which she now quadruples for a single meal) seems to help with lowering testosterone in the body. They are many women with PCOS that even had babies after following a low carb diet.

Chantal should look into the keto halfasser. That woman eats out every single day. She eats the most greasy fastfood creations and has lost 170lbs doing so. She actually loves to eat the way cuntal does. It could save not only her hair, but also her life at this point.

She's had a complete hysterectomy, she doesn't have PCOS.

For men at least, getting them into the gym is often a food way to change the way they view their bodies.

Last year I took a morbidly obese coworker (420lbs at 6') to the gym and showed him the ropes. The dude exhibited some serious 'mong strength' at work, and I wanted to see what he could do with a bar and some plates.

First day? This motherfucker hit a low bar squat for three reps at 180kg, benched 110kg for two, and deadlifted 170kg for a conventional single. On his first day, after never lifting weights. That's over 1,000lbs total for a complete newbie.

He lost about 30lbs and went to the gym a few more times, but hasn't been back much since (both by choice and circumstance.) Too busy selling weed and ordering takeout to his gaming PC.

But yeah, my point is, even though he didn't continue with his loss, I definitely feel like I got his brain working differently in terms of fat loss. So much unrealised potential in that lad.

I'm descended from two different lines of addicts. Mom's side is alcoholism and pills, dad's is crack, heroin and cocaine.
I also have a decent amount of obese food addicts on both sides.

From what I've observed, a big part of the problem is that fattening food is incredibly addictive, and this can be seen in how food addicts behave a lot like alcoholics and crackheads. I've seen food aggression over Chinese takeout, people stealing others' meals from the fridge at 1 AM, sneaking Taco Bell in when they know their fat-shaming parents aren't around, weird rituals surrounding food consumption (have to watch YouTube videos while eating, need to eat on a specific table with a comfy chair, have to take a bite of each food in a specific pattern to make the flavors meld well, etc).

Drug addicts and alcoholics also have to sneak around to hide their addictions, get pissy when they can't partake in the way they want, and feel a deep sense of shame about their behavior. All the food addicts I know also eat processed foods and takeout, they're never addicted to their own homecooked meals.

Therefore my amateur conclusion is that fatties in America are largely fat because they're engaged in the post modern equivalent of all the other addiction crazes that swept over nations in centuries past, ie opium, alcohol, cigarettes etc. Processed food is a drug and it's the most easily accessed one around.

assuming they dont have some sort of endocrine related condition, isnt it just calories in vs out? So probably shit food thats very calorie dense and lacking nutrition (fast food, fried stuff, processed, tons of added sugars like sodas etc.) plus lack of exercise.

once they get fat, exercise is likely more difficult and if they develop pre diabetes, losing the weight just becomes more difficult. A vicious cycle.

those with diseases that make them fat
I half-agree here. There are some diseases like Prader-Willi that compels you to eat and eat and eat and there's never an off-switch for these people, but from what I heard is that it's very rare. A more common condition that predisposes you to overweight/obesity like PCOS doesn't necessarily mean that you're certainly doomed to a lifetime of obesity. If it's managed with proper diet/exercise then it's possible to be a healthy weight. From what I understand it's far more of an uphill battle than everyone else, you have to be more diligent and vigilant with it, but yah life's not fair.

That isn't even necessarily true, it makes you more prone to visceral fat and insulin resistance and makes it easier to gain muscle, but not much harder to lose weight if you just count calories. It doesn't completely break your body in the way hypothyroidism does.
