ITT: we brainstorm ideas to fight the obesity epidemics

ITT: we brainstorm ideas to fight the obesity epidemics.

I know this is Sup Forums but any chance we can avoid answers like "aushwitz but for fat people" and have intelligent answers I'd prefer it.

>hope

So gents what can we do?

Mandatory liposuction

Show them facts.
Encourage people to run and/or lift every week.
Convince them how easy change is.

I’m not fat, I don’t care

Make them pay more taxes.

You're literally fucking insane if you think the solution to this problem is a calm and rational presentation of facts.

I suggest going back to old and tried ideas

Make it a personal issue, not a medical one.
Make discrimination legal.

Social pressure is one of the most powerful forces. Once they feel ostracized they will change or die.

>double double
>nice
You can be skinny fat, too.
Sup Forums should be promoting healthy lifestyle choices period.
Get rid of the degeneracy of any form.

People over 300 lbs aren't allowed to reproduce or raise children? Hopefully then they can be motivated to lose some weight. If not, they won't taint the next generation.
>inb4 Muh Freedoms

Sin Tax on anything packed with refined sugar
Sin tax on fast food and process frozen garbage.

Maybe even a fat tax, submit your height weight and body fat percentage with your taxes.

Make having fat kids considered child abuse

>basic income including healthy food rations
>fatties will have to work to earn their junk food
>???
>utopia

Wow I don’t get it, why should we care about fat people? They’ll just kill themselves slowly, let them die. Parasites shouldn’t be helped, we’re enough on earth

Holy socialism batman.

Paying people in vegetables not a bad idea though

In the US it's an unavoidable topic. 75% of the country is overweight or obese and it's only getting worse.

>be fat
>claim to not be fat

words don't need meanings. just say the words that sound nice and pretend they mean what you want.

impose sanctions on exports and imports to / from the US of A
+ develop the respective economies, slowing globalism and getting independence

make blacks more racist. this way they will stay in their own communities, and will not venture out to hunt for white whales.
+bonus: would be more acceptable to be racist to them

Oh true, I’m stupid. Well, I’m not concerned, then.

I can just say, as I went in the US, that you’re eating like twice as much as us.

/fit/ people get tax breaks

^i express democratic solidarity with this post. also freedom

put this in their burgers

Fat people are a MASSIVE, MASSIVE, MAAAAASSSSSIIIIIVVVVEEE drain on healthcare systems. It makes economic sense to address the problem.

...

...

ex fat shit here. I seriously think it's down to parenting, pretty much every fat person was a fat kid and fat kids are only fat kids because their parents don't give a crap about their health.
I started sorting myself out at 14 though, can't quite remember why now.
What I'm trying to get around to is saying fucking educate parents and get the kids help if they're fat shits, it's normally not their fault.
Dunno what to say about grown adults who are already fat though, I guess we'd just let them die off and when they're gone then no more people would be getting fat as there's preventive measures in place to help kids.
IMO it's fucking pathetic how we treat obesity which is a real dangerous condition for people to have.

Most first world countries have socialized medicine

It is every tax payers business who is using / misusing the system, especially if they aren't paying their share.

We shame smokes more by the daily , people who live unhealthy lifestyles should pay for it themselves.

Start a volunteer force of permavirgins to fuck the fat girls skinny.

Yes that's the main problem. Not even the food itself which could always be healthy, but just how much food. Big meals on top of snacks all day. Who could have guessed that eating less would make you less fat.

gotta burn that fat

The State should put something on food that if you eat too much you start pooping blood and stuff.

>having fat kids
>tfw my firstborn was LGA and I ate healthy food
Nigger what?

>Is fat
>denies being fat

instead of random gay ball sports in school, teach kids why exercise and a good diet might save their lives in more ways than one. also teach what a good diet actually is.
i wish parents were already doing this but obviously theyre not. if school is mandatory, you might aswell teach shit that will strengthen society

That image doesn't look obese.

>but any chance we can avoid answers like "aushwitz but for fat people"
But this is the best idea

>>Sin Tax on anything packed with refined sugar
>Sin tax on fast food and process frozen garbage.
What? No. I eat those things on occasion and I'm a skelly. Why would you penalize normal people?

I dont care any more. If fat people want to be fat then I hope they eat themselves into am early grave.

Fuck fats, of you want to doe from heart disease, diabetes, stroke, etc etc be my guest.

Yea. A good way to figure this out is to look at ours McDonald’s compared to yours. What you’re paying 3$ just for a little hunger is basically a complete meal for us.

Also - well it might be not true for all the Americans obviously - you seem to not have real regular hours to eat, like you may eat between meals. I’m maybe wrong here.

I am about half as fat as the blob in the pic, but im still fat. These people will rather die than admit that they got a problem and then take it from there...

You could try for limiting items to be bought using EBT.
For WIC they have a list of items approved for purchase and a specific number of said item you can buy before the card makes you pay for it with your own cash.
So if only healthy, cheap food was available for purchase using EBT, then poor people will start making meals with the food. No junk food, no booze, just healthy food.

the definition has been expanded to include that

>aushwitz for fat people

I think you mean "fun camps".

In all seriousness we need to greatly reduce the amount of sugar intake in everything/everyone.
Eventually treating it like a drug. It's killing us, and making us xbox hueg

just remind them that successful men don't want landwhales

either they accept it or they turn into old cat ladies and nature takes its course

One day in the next 10 years there will be a weight loss pill that will literally make anyone a healthy weight no matter what they eat.

Its just the way techmology works.

People will giggle at those who go to the gym just to stay thin.

Tax the hell out of fat/sugar/prepared foods, make healthy food cheap. Encourage exercise.

Good old fashioned bullying still works.

It technically is. People get "obese" and "morbidly obese" mixed up quite often. I've known so many people that say "yeah, im fat, but im not OBESE," when in fact they're actually very well past the obesity threshold, they're just not 300+ lb hambeasts.

You can't even not let in hordes of Muslims, how the fuck you gonna achieve that?

Legalize medicinal DNP and have doctors melt the fat off the fatties. Sure we'll lose a few, but in the grand scheme of things I think everyone will be happier.

Send the fat acceptence people to Uganda. Then let them explain why them eating as much as the average Ugandan village means that they're really the ones who have it hard

Honestly fat people will just continue to waste money and buy the unhealthier foods, and the ones who stop being able to afford it will just get fat people benefits and then use their food stamps to continue buying twinkies and donuts.

Education, encourage people to pursue a healthy lifestyle, put research into obesity and start advertising the related problems, like they do about tobacco.

you're essentially correct. Sit down meals are less common, families are less important.

I would consider the policy roots of the problem that for most of American history, family and individualism was the key pillar, but with the advancement of the welfare state, the same practices remain with less incentive. In the end it's a personal issue, but the state hasn't been much help in promoting personal well being.

Impose fines on those overweight. I mean they already charge you on your taxes if you don't have health insurance. Add a flat tax if you don't have insurance and are overweight. If you do have insurance, start requiring insurance companies increase monthly prices based on how overweight you are. Example if you are 10-20 lbs overweight it could be $10 extra, 20-40 lbs over $25, etc. Though they could charge more for monthly insurance while at the same time provide access to maybe gym discounts or free access to dietary planning/help websites or something.

Isn't the scale overweight < adipositas < obesity?

stop subsidizing fucking corn
no more corn syrup in everything

For me, it was a simple awakening. I realized I was fat, and I wanted to be normal. Collectivism really is the only best answer, because we have to be conformists to be moral.

Do you think people WANT to be like that, asshole? most people don't eat MORE its that they eat BADLY because they have been RAISED THAT WAY. They literally do not and cannot know any different. Withdrawing from sugar is literally the same difficulty as withdrawing from heroin or meth, extremely fucking HARD. Some studies say it is harder.

REMINDER: Regulating people's health has always been a socialist lefty meme.

>tobacco & alcohol taxes
>universal healthcare
>Michelle Obama's war on junk food
>China's mandatory daily exercise

The only reason I should care about some fat ass eating himself to death is because my government mandates that I have to pay for his health problems. Otherwise, he dies and the fit in society survive

How about we just stop coddling the weak and focus on what aspects of society play an important role in providing incentives for people to be healthy. Remember when the most basic ideal of attracting a mate and starting a family was enough incentive for people to want to be fit and healthy enough to appeal to the opposite sex? Maybe we should start by trying to make that a thing again.

It's underweight>healthy weight>overweight>obese>morbidly obese.
Only 1/3 American women are a healthy weight.

Lol. The only reason people are fat is because they eat too much. At the end of the day for the vast majority of the population it's calories in and calories out. Eat less regardless of whether it's a hamburger or a salad.

I also don't buy that in a western country people are too stupid to know what is healthy and their ignorance leads them to eat candy and fastfood all day.

These are all bullshit excuses. Just eat less. Most people don't live nearly an active enough lifestyle to justify how much food they eat. Just follow the average person and see how much they eat outside of their three meals. Just cutting out snacking would change a lot.

Happenstantially, I prefer my women with meat on them, not like I'm fucking a 12 year old boy. So yes I like a bigger, curvier woman.

We need brains for that

Nigger Wha-
>Sees flag
Oh nice one m8 almost got me

And how do you expect someone with a FT job to do that? also as I said and I will repeat
>Withdrawing from sugar is literally the same difficulty as withdrawing from heroin or meth, extremely fucking HARD. Some studies say it is harder.
If you work and you try to starve yourself thin, you will probably lose your job.

>Withdrawing from sugar is literally the same difficulty as withdrawing from heroin or meth

You've never withdrawn from either if you believe that.

I think the migration is more a "feeling" based discussion, whereas obesity is more of a "factual" discussion.

This could be true but I think it will still convince a part of them to give it a try.

>So gents what can we do?
Nothing. Fast food and Sugary water is the replacement for the wolves, bears and starvation that used to clean out the idiots from the gene pool. Why would you want to fuck with natural selection?

>We discovered that sugar may be as addictive as cocaine
>[the study] clearly demonstrate[s] that intense sweetness can surpass cocaine reward, even in drug-sensitized and drug-addicted individuals

Uhhhhhmmmmm my friend? Maybe you meant "people will JIGGLE"?

People eat too much carbs, and sugar they don't need gets stored as fat. They really underestimate how damaging that small sandwich is, or that slice of pizza, or that hamburger, or those bread sticks, or that pack of crackers. Bread is the most devastating lardass enabler there is on this planet.

>What could be wrong, it's just a sandwich with a couple slices of salame

Little they know they're turning those two slices into a kcal bomb. But at the same time, bread is also the most basic filler a man can think of. Try actually getting rid of bread altogether, even if you double your intake of pasta and keep eating anything else you'll start starving like a motherfucker.

I understand that fat acceptance is counterproductive to their health and overall well being, but one cause of obesity is depression, so can you guys go easier on them?

Leaf shut up pls with the amount of maple syrup you eat, you will be 350lb inside of a year and your penis will be so small it will shrink into your tummy inside its foreskin

>Eliminate all corn subsidies
>Tax sugar

government creating a disincentive for pervasive behavior is bound to fail. Also because the same government is creating an incentive these bad behaviors. The welfare state is a proxy that enables people to act poorly and still get rewarded for it. This ranges from poor health, poor relationships, and poor economic decisions. Things that should land you outside of society and as such an unsustainable lifestyle, but with the welfare state that is only expanding, we enable these degenerates.

I don't think it's a bad thing. The NHS discovered that their citizens smoking actually lowered the cost of healthcare because they died quicker. In the US, the same thing will happen but for Social Security and Medicare. Let them eat themselves to death and we might have a standing chance at having the SS/Medicare benefits when we retire.

Spotted the fatty

We need another proper war

Show your own self first

>mass starvation and global economic collapse

Way to go Mr. President

latimes.com/science/la-sci-sn-more-americans-obese-than-overweight-20150620-story.html

So are you waiting for the USA to go extinct?

You don't.

Seriously fat people have a better chance of surviving being shot in the head than losing significant weight and keeping it off.

The human body is designed to gain weight and keep it. That's what kept us alive. There are various mechanisms by which it does this, which you can look up for yourself, but basically by the time you're fat it's already too late. The deck is stacked against you, and that's why fatties don't lose weight.

It's easy to say GIT SUM WILLPOWER, but this advice is as useful as telling someone who can't deadlift 150kgs 5x5 to just lift harder, faggot. Yes, with a long, progressive routine this weight is definitely achievable for pretty much everyone, but it requires a lot of commitment. Most people just don't fucking care that much. They'd rather be at home, or with their kids, or enjoying their one day off a week.

Exercise is not a solution to obesity. Obesity must be seen as a revenue issue, not an expenditure issue. Unfortunately, this isn't exactly helpful. We can't really control what people eat. They have to choose the right food, in the right amount, on their own. If they do this they won't even need to exercise.

Children. Children are the answer. Teach kids how to eat right, and treat obese children as abused children - with commensurate penalties for the parents.

This. Calories in and calories out. Like user said, for the vast vast majority of people its just shitty habits and blind ignorance. "Body positivity" movement has only made the problem worse. Healthy at every size is not true in the slightest. Fat is fat like the girl in the pic, its easy to look at yourself objectively if you are willing to be honest.

Thank you so much for speaking the truth, I shouldn't be fatshamed or bodyshamed for something I had no say in.

....except exercise IS the solution to obesity. In conjunction with eating well you can lose weight it's not magic. It takes hard work but exercise is the tool to make it happen. And people too lazy to take care of themselves just so they can spend time with their kids are kidding themselves. Why not take care of yourself so you don't die early of heart disease and live long enough to see those grand kids?

It already exists friend, it is called DNP.

My hope is one day to generate power from fat people like myself floating in pools being dosed dnp at a regular rate. With the correct set up we could get a 2-3 kilo of off a person a day.

>It takes hard work
Ergo it's not the solution.

Jesus fucking Christ, I hope people don't pay you for your stupid fucking ideas.

If people were willing to do the hard work to not be fat we wouldn't have fat people in the first place you stupid cunt.

We start by rejecting nudging, "public health," expert control, and thinking that everything has to be asocial-legislative campaign.

Air conditioning.

How will we make it safe?

>When you're triggered by obesity stats
When is the next huge happening?
There are so many people who need to not be people anymore.

Education

People are so uninformed about basic nutrition and exercise

How many ideas do you need before you get to the conclusion of "don't eat so much and exercise"?

>"You need mass immigration because your people are too fat to work. How about you take some of these tolerant Muslims in? Good goys...erm, GUYS I SAID GUYS!"

Why do you think Christian ethics are pretty much dead and born again Christians are so popular? The strong moral system that promoted a virtuous life is no longer existent

Every five pounds overweight is an extra percent on your taxes.
Restrict welfare for the obese

>huffington post
I expected a higher caliber of autism from you
I am disappointed.

you gotta let fat people figure it out on their own. I used to be nearing 400 fucking pounds until I finally got so disgusted with myself. Went on a 1700 cal diet, lost 70 pounds so far. Still a fat as fatass but the progress is still going strong.

DNP is pretty safe at the right levels, a few thousand people took it during a trial in the 30s and only 3 or 4 people died due to OD and impurities

I believe there has been one case of the reversal of a DNP overdose, we also have the option of inducing hypothermia.

With proper engineering we could introduce it to all processed food in small doses to bring obesity down and create a negative feeling towards high sugar foods.

>Exercise is not a solution to obesity.
Stupid Australians, hope you become fat as fuck and sink that stupid penal colony
