Re: been musing about this but not sure what to think

actually the US probably has the most generous definition of fat and thin in terms of health. that's what the bmi is is for, and the bmi, when you account for bone structure, is actually pretty close to being accurate, and it is VERY generous. i'm at the very top of my bmi normal limit, and i personally would consider myself rather overweight. if i cut sugar out of my diet, which i have an unfortunate addiction to, and exercised more than like once a week on good weeks, i would defnitely shed at least 15 lbs over a year or so, easily.

if you're fat, you're not eating healthy, period. if you're eating whole foods, cooking most of your food (thereby maximizing the amount of micro-nutrients you receive), cutting out sugar (which is basically poison), eating balanced meals (good amounts of carbs, healthy fats, and protein), and you exercise normally, it is literally impossible to get fat unless it's medical problem (like thyroid disorder). and i mean fat as in exceeding your bmi limit.

if you're thin, it doesn't necessarily mean you are healthy, or eating healthy, or even taking care of your body in any way. being fat is just a very visible way of being unhealthy. even smokers can do so in private if they choose to. i don't know, honestly, i'm kind of split on this issue because on one hand i think your health is your business, but on the other hand, i think the more people who are unhealthy, the more it influences other people to be less concerned about their own health. i don't really mind condemning unhealthy behavior...but people who are fat shouldn't get more shit for it than smokers or drinkers. or people who sleep like 3 hours a night. or skinny people who eat doritos as a food staple (my brother).
