I used the My fitness pal app to lose 25 pounds. It helped me to realize how unhealthy certain food were and it also helped with portion control. The only down side for me was that it didn't clearly show how much fruits and veggies I ate. For me eating healthy is what really helped.
i'm curious how do you even get that fat in the first place. and please don't tell me /all/ of these people have some mysteriously tragic disease that /causes/ obesity. bc that's rare okay. it's usually the other way round: obesity causing diseases.
Sedentary full time job paired with high food prices usually make for a poor diet of cheap, processed food and little time for exercise. Especially if a person has children to tend to or other responsibilities that take up their time and healthier, more time consuming meals are a chore. Little bad habits add up, lots of people gain lots of weight without being stay-at-home blobs doing nothing but eat.
For me, I have depression and eat my emotions. So like usually I'll be exercising and eating an okay amount but then I get depressed days where I do hardly any physical activity and overload on the food. I'm not like obese big but I have enough chub that I get made fun of ( gonna be honest though, most of the girls I grew up around were actually model thin so even if I was average size I'd still be chubby to them )
Mostly it's a hormone disbalance, a poor diet, artificial food additives, high stress, abnormal sleep habits can throw off your hormones; causing your metabolism to disfunction, from there no matter how much you eat, all of it gets stored as fat.
Sometimes people are raised on unhealthy diets and they continue to that way their parents did. Other people are really picky and won't eat veggies or fruit. My brother buys the fruits and veggies but can't make himself eat them. There are tons of reasons.

There are some fat people who actually put in the work. The ones who act like that are the Healthy at Every Size people who act like there's nothing wrong with them and they're just naturally like that.
I know this is a divisive topic, but it hits home for me right now, and so I thought I'd put in my piece:
I am a recovering alcoholic--addictive behavior I began to deal with PTSD and an eating disorder. Obviously drinking constantly is a good way to gain weight. It has taken years of therapy to get at the reasons I was drinking and to feel secure enough to stop. After terrible withdrawal symptoms, I am now 3 weeks sober, feeling good, and able to start losing the weight.
That being said, I don't feel that I'm "lazy asf." In fact, I've had to work triple-time to even function, and now I feel empowered and capable, thank you.
Good on these people!!
