I think there are some, very FEW, instances where it's actually an outside force (like my friend, whose thyroids are f*cked way up and they didn't detect it until she'd already rapidly gained like, 25 pounds), but it's total bull that they can't control that. I've got "fat genes" in my family and I'm managing to stay at 135, which is an accomplishment for a 5'7"-er who is "predisposed" to fatness.

On the other hand, I am on the side that fast foods should offer healthy alternatives. Not that it'll seriously cut down obesity, but more so people like me, who really HATE fast food and all the grease, still have an option of grabbing food on the run. And I also celebrate Burger King for finally putting veggie burgers on their menus :D

The blame is on the people, unless McDonalds employees personally come around your house and shove Big Macs down your throat.

those companies are ok to sell unhealthy and fatty food, as long as the consumer is properly informed about the negative health effects. just because you know the food to be unhealthy doesn't mean everyone does, or that they actually understand the implications
i mean before the mid-90s fast food chains like McDonalds were advertising their food as being "healthy"
that is plain wrong and can be partly to blame for a number of obese people in the west - especially as once you are fat, its very hard to loose the weight. i'm sure a number of people who were misinformed in the 80s are still feeling the effects today.

for my money, not still enough is done to tell people the effects of this food, so they can make an informed personal decision for which they have the sole responsibility. more information should be displayed in these fast food "restaurants", such as, say, calorie and RDA fat intake data on the menus displayed above the ordering counter.

no, normal restaurants don't have to do this, but then they are a whole different creature.

i think someone's looking for a warning or maybe a ban...
i would advise against saying shit like that here

I eat plenty of shitty food, and I'm 5'9" and 149lbs (just weighed ten minutes ago). Of course, I do exercise.

if people are fat it is their own fault if they are to lazy to exercise then they should less or healthier foods and if they dont see a problem they should be shot :sniper:

Parents.
The parents should encourage healthy eating habits and exercise and not raise kids who end up being huge. Once someone is in the state of beign ginormous, it's harder to lose the weight from there, thus prevention of such obese states is more important.

Well yeah my mate eats all the time, he eats at least once every couple of hours. He has one of the greatest bodies you can get because he exercises so much. If you even it out its alright but unfortuneately most dont.

Atropa and Sturmsgultz you are both officially warned. Troll, flamebait, and use obscenity like that again and you'll be taking a nice vacation from this forum.
