"If my body tells me something I will make sure it's heard"
Yet when it tells her it is dying, she doesn't listen...
All the pain that her knees and feet are sending her, her lack of ability to run or walk any great distance, falls on deaf ears.
I wonder what it says if she tries to bend over to tie her shoelaces 😂
@@mattneil1449 It can't cuz she can't
Any other kind of addict follows that same urge. The body can deceive.
It's crazy that people have literally zero understanding of how satiety works. You can eat too little (ie below maintenance) and feel sated; you can eat too much (above maintenance) and not feel sated.
Hunger is like if I tried to calculate whether Walmart was getting enough new inventory to maintain their current stock by standing outside the store counting the number of cars that enter the parking lot and the number of trucks that pull up to the loading bays in the back, extrapolating from average subtotal per visitor and average dollar value of a truck shipment -- I'll have _some_ idea of how many dollars of inventory come in and how many dollars of inventory leave, but it'll be extremely imprecise. But if the most immediate concern is not having enough inventory, then I'll definitely overestimate sales and underestimate shipments, because I'd rather be wrong in the direction that results in too much inventory than not enough. Too much inventory is a problem eventually; not enough inventory is a problem immediately.
But these fattivists[1] think their body has a complex, precise supply chain system tracking all of their inventory perfectly accurately. Which is crazy, because even actual store inventory analysts don't know exactly how many items a store has in stock due to undocumented shrinkage[2].
[1] Fun etymological note: a shift from Latin to Italian involved Latin words with /ct/ morphing into Italian /tt/, eg nocturnus -> notturno, factum -> fatto, etc. And also, of course, activus -> attivo. Hence fat+activisit -> fattivist. Completely logical.

fat acceptance is just the greatest fast food marketing campaign of all time
change my mind
Or anti fast food marketing campaign? Because I personally never have been so motivated in my adulthood for working out. And that's just because of or thanks to the fat activists.
They litteraly erased my binging monster from existence. Every time I have a binging tilt , I just watch one of those like amberlynn reid and I am like nah I am going to eat one Cookie , half a glass of milk and a litter of water or tea and I am good. Don't want to EVER look like them. In europa the skinny look is coming back full force and I am convinced it's because of the fat tube or fat tok trend that we are all morbidly watching. It has a complete reverse effect here.
Shan't! So there!🤣
Here's the best argument I have against - there are all sorts of diseases that will cause a person to expire prematurely related to obesity. Fast food joints probably want their customers living a little longer, because you can sell more food to someone that lives to 70 or 80 than you can to someone that expires of a massive coronary at 35 because they weighed 700 lbs.
It’s worse than that. The food pyramid that we grew up with was utterly corrupt big grain/low sat fat marketing. This is the next step from “we’re not poisoning you” to “we’re poisoning you, but it’s not bad!”
Nah, if that were the case they would be backing out from the PR nightmare rn.
"Shut up Adele, you're oppressing the fats and you're probably a Nazi!" Legitimately made me laugh out loud.
It made me chuckle!
Yup 🤣

Fun Fact: The classic Disney princesses from Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, etc all had real life actresses come into the studios and wear real costumes to act as models for the animators to reference to accurately draw how a real woman looked as she moved around.
And don't forget all the rotoscoping.
Exactly, even the Na'vi in Avatar.
Sounds like the've never seen a real woman before. 😂
Now Disney has no idea what a woman is...

@@MPHJackson7maybe they’ll work out if you keep giving them points instead of food
She's probably one of the only few who did have a point. Her health is in bad condition, but a person dying from cancer shouldn't be the one pointing that out (I get that one person had a choice, but the point stands, albeit barely)
I thought she had a speech impediment or something
As a former fat kid, i have no sympathy for this absurd movement. I don’t hate fat people, but i don’t buy the excuses, either. These are my favorite videos from you, Dev. TTT is sad.
100%. I lost a hundred pounds so I could become a Soldier and was at the top of the world. Got injured and gained some weight after service though. Just getting back to my healthy weight. lol
@@Thrainite Yeah, I've fallen off the wagon a few times myself, and I've had to drop 20-40 lbs a few times over the past 20 years. The key is noticing the problem and doing something about it.
Hard agree as a former fat kid
@@name-vi6fs FR. In the army we would run and workout constantly. Injury plus post-military lethargy did a number on me. Not fat, but pudgy. Luckily I got a new job that requires fitness and has a gym. Figure I can get a good PT session in before or after work. Just need a good kick in the ass.
This movement is a perfect example of zeroeth world problems.

Welcome to the white collective brother , we have a potluck every other Tuesday
They truly went from "Don't make fun of people for their appearance" to "Ignore decades of medical research! Being fat is actually healthy!"
the part i love about their claims of "health at any size" and "don't make fun of people based off their appearance" because those same people almost always throw around mockery and hateful slang for people that are a healthy weight or skinny. They call skinny people "twigs", "anorexic", "bulimic", or "skeletons" and claim they on drugs or that they're starved. They do similar with really healthy people like body builders, models, and athletes too because those people make them feel bad.
The amount of irony and hypocrisy that radiates from those lardzillas is unbelievable. @@arthas640
To be fair, the medical literature on weight and health is as bad as it is elsewhere in the medical industry. There's not a ton of evidence that being fat is inherently unhealthy. It definitely imposes limits on you though.
Yep. Even embracing wild conspiracy theories about obesity.
My younger sister is a skinny girl, always has been. I remember how frustrated she was about not gaining any curves and there was a rumor at the school we attended that she was on drugs. Despite being skinny, she still faced scrutiny because of her body. Where’s the body positivity for her?
when I was an obese little tween, I was the "ugh, eat a burger! skinny bitch!" type, until I lost all the weight and got the same treatment back to me. It's all anger and jealousy projected onto people who make you feel lesser.
I mean that's part of the origins, anorexia and anxiety issues are and were pretty severe for women and teen girls in few decades and in the first few years of body positivity iirc there was quite a fair bit of coverage.
it's just a shame lunatics dominate the online spaces and media spheres.
Body positivity, or any type of positivity does not work in schools. Kids are savage, they will always find a trait to make fun of
"I have a skinny girl inside of me"
- The fatties who ate your sister
@@qunas101 Yeah they are. I was much chunkier than my sister and I was called a cow and fat ass by the boys. Kids will find any reason to be cruel.
Here's where I disagree: in that fictional world where fatness is an immutable trait, it still doesn't mean that systemic fat-phobia would be the cause of "normies not finding fat people attractive". We find immutable characteristics unattractive all the time and I don't think it's right to judge people for those preferences.
Dev was just explaining how it would fit in with the leftist system.
@@mandaloretheproud6622 nothing fits in the leftist system. At best they can use about 45% of their ideology at any one time without being self contractionary
@@mandaloretheproud6622 i feel so cheated by absolute morons who coopted left ideas and took them to the stupidest conclusions possible. the origins of these things are based entirely in sound data but noooooooo we can't just stay with "body-shaming is bad" we have to go all the way to "being fat is a positive actually"

*Leaves, as my work is done here*
Watching my father struggle with obesity all my life, due in large part to hypothyroidism; watching him slowly suffer from diabetes2, shot knees, necrotic nerves in his feet, sleep apnea (especially scary); then to see him, in roughly a year at the age of 65 lose more than 100 pounds, see actual improvement in his health, demeanor, strength, and in a weird case his eye sight, is one of the most prideful things i've felt and these... fetishists online, who would rather see him dead for accomplishing that, sickens me to the core.
Diabetes causes retinopathy, so if he managed to get into remission it could reverse some of the damage, leading to improved sight.
One of the side effects of diabetes is some kind of impact to your eyesight.
My friend last year went blind over the course of two weeks, had new lenses put in a month later, and was diagnosed with Type 2 a week afterwards.
So proud of your dad!!! Felt a terrible hand, but fought tooth and nail to be there for his family (AND HIMSELF). Let him know a stranger on the internet hopes he lives the next three decades with nothing but happiness and pride❤️
They really do make me angry. They're basically telling people to put their own lives in danger to soothe their feewings
@@Stormfinthat is so fucked up and horrifying. I'm so sorry for your friend. That must have been devastating 😔
As the priest back in the countryside where I was born once said:
*"Sin has its way of destroying both the body and soul, which will be destroyed first is the real question."*
And honestly I'm not so sure.
Perfectly stated. There's a good reason gluttony is considered one of the deadly sins.
Ever read The Picture of Dorian Gray?
I watched a family friend eat himself to death. I cant stand when anyone says "being obese can be healthy". It aint
Obesity is absolutely unhealthy. A little bit of fat on your body is fine though. Mostly though if it was cultivated from so called "healthy fats", like what is found in olive oil, salmon and some vegetarian products.
As for when too much fat on one's body goes from useful for survival and into unhealthy: you need to consult nutritionists and doctors for that.
Ditto. He was in full blown delusion about it too. Really sad because he left his 18 year old son behind.
As a kid I saw the housebound woman across the street have a heart attack, the paramedics could only do so much, they couldn't get her out the door to the ambulance, had to call the fire department to break through the house wall to get her out. She'd died by then. Her son stood in the front yard watching all this crying his eyes out. It broke the husband and the son. They stopped going out, sold up and moved away. Reality doesn't give a damn about pseudo intellectual excuses and whining, it'll still kick you in the teeth.
people politicizing science is insanity. It's been incontrovertibly proven that being morbidly obese is bad for your health. The people denying that arent any different then the flat earthers.
That's so sad
I am fat, and I am grateful I am not dead.
Every pound lost as another pound I am reminded I am not dead yet.
My goal is simple, and my incentive is effective:
DON'T DIE
keep grinding champ
You're doing good job for loosing that weight. That said, there are realistic weight loss goals you can set for yourself rather than settling for the bare minimum that is staying alive. Just keep pushing yourself.
You got this, brother! It's a tough road, but the world is full of inspiration. Keep pushing, keep cranking out that 1 extra rep and you'll get there!
More than that, not only does losing the weight prevent you from dying from it but it also gives you a much better quality of life too as you'll feel much better both mentally and physically.
Keep up the good work! You're doing well to improve yourself and if you keep up your current mindset you'll get to where you want
Yes! 👍💪
They’re eating themselves out of house and home
Actually more like eating us out of house and home cuz welfare and social security etc...
It's more that they can't fit through the door.

I lost over 100lbs as an adult in my late 20's, had been at a BMI of 30%+ since 12, and have kept off the weight for years. The "tricks" are to be consistent, make small incremental lifestyle changes over a long period of time, don't diet and make changes to how you eat that will be permanent, and replace bad habits with better habits as opposed to just trying to get rid of the bad habit. It really helps to make it easy and do things like meal prepping as well. You cannot out-exercise a terrible diet.
It also helps to have friend constantly follow you around while playing a tuba.
Exactly. Any body builder can tell you that diet is the thing that makes you look good. Not exercise by itself.
The biggest for me is exactly what you said. That it will be permanent, it's a lifestyle change with gaining better habits and awareness. It got a lot easier when I wasn't trying to starve myself and just started watching how many calories I was taking in.
No lifestyle change worked for me until I figured out the principle behind keto and that starch is dangerous and hidden everywhere.
I'm glad you found it either way@@AkiRa22084
As a landwhale, I'm sick and tired of fat activists. Sure, bullying someone for being [insert physical attribute] isn't good but there's no pride in being unhealthy and dying faster than others.
I wish to be normal sized, I have tons of obesity-related problems and I know they're only going to get worse. Depression is why I gained 200% of my bodyweight before I turned 30. I wasn't always fat.
Yeah, I absolutely wish people were attracted to me regardless of my weight but I also think it's wrong to screech "touch the FUPA, BIGOT!".
I need *help* to lose weight. Psychological and physical help.
But there is no "healthy at any size" if you're dying to fatty liver or your joints are screaming bloody murder with every single tiny step you take.
Shaming people for being overweight is unhelpful at the least, especially when the information we’re given about weight and health is so wrong.
We get our diet advice from the same companies that are poisoning us. 70% of the food in the grocery stores is designed to make you overeat. Stop eating factory food. Vegetable oil isn’t good for you. Sugar isn’t good for you. Ground corn and white flour isn’t good for you.
I hear you. I've dropped over 100 pounds twice in my life. It's all about building good habits. This takes a lot of effort in the beginning, and continuous effort in maintenance.
Keto was probably the best diet. Keeping carbs at 20 grams a day (basically only getting carbs through vegetables) is hard for the first few weeks. But afterwards I was dropping about 10 pounds a month. The biggest problem with Keto is that it's not sustainable in the long run, so you're building habits you'll need to unlearn once the weight comes off, without gaining the weight back.
@@danielturczan2485 Currently losing weight with managing my calories in, calories out-daily goals and Wegovy. I'm prepared to take the drug for the rest of my life because it has lessened the amount of food noise I have in my head and my snacking has been reduced to a minimum.
I agree, it's about building good habits and in general having a healthier look at myself, mentally and physically, and easing up on the self-hatred (within reasonable amounts, of course. baby steps) have really helped me so far.
I don't think I could personally do keto, even for a short while. I love my carbs too much and I also don't have the budget to buy keto-friendly alternatives to things I would miss too much in my daily life. Again, everything in moderation is for me a kinder, smarter way to do it than outright never indulging in anything, ever again.
The guy with the donut had a horrible friend who posted an angry video replying to Blair White for pointing out Donut-Guy died. He tried to claim donut guy simply died do to congenital cardiac problems: like him being overweight and unhealthy didn't exacerbate his genetic heart problems. What a great "friend" lol.
I had seen that, too.
Who would have thunk that looking like a Wall-E extra could be bad for people who already have the no running policy in their family
That guy also wasnt actually into the fat activism scene he was more of eating weird food on camera guy that was kinda captured by his audience. . Blaire made that distinction I wish some other youtubers would as well.
The guy's death is tragic but to say his obesity didn't have anything to do with his death because it wasn't the direct cause is just so horribly dishonest. Being fat affects everything in your body, it causes illnesses as well as make already existing ones worse. Including mental illness.
I did not say that at all. I said he wasnt a fat activist, this is true, and should be acknowledged as such in these videos. since they are about fat activists. His is a sadder case, of a guy who died because his job (audience) forced him to eat himself to death. He never said it was healthy or good or was a part of that death cult of fat.
Still sad, but a different kind of sasd and he should not be lumped in with those sad types.@@selinnazsur2328

As somebody who used to be quite fat (160kg) and am now at a healthy bmi (82kg) I think biggest reason so many people see it as impossible to lose weight (other than activists pushing this notion) is all the terrible weight loss advise out there that leads to people either eating too many calories or giving up entirely. (Usually diets that involve cutting out certain foods but ignoring calories, they're either going to be miserable or ineffective) In reality you can eat whatever you want so long as it's within your calorie limit, you just need to plan things out so at the end of the day you don't go over that limit, if I want a sharing bag of sweets at the end of the day while watching a film that's fine, I just have a lower calorie lunch that day. A lot of people clearly don't understand this based on the amount of people I know who have asked what diet I'm on or if I'm on keto or some bs.
Yup. While there is some wiggle room based on metabolism and underlying health conditions, most of weight-loss is really just calories in vs calories out.
Calories in and Cal out is a lie. 100 calories of broccoli is NOT the same as 100 Cal of Pepsi. Both are treated differently by the body. It is what you eat that matters, not calorie counting or Calorie switching (oh I'll eat less of what's nutritious for me at lunch so I can pig out on candy tonight). You're just lying to yourself and not doing your body any favors. You can be thin on the outside and fat inside. Just as dangerous as obesity.
Tbf, though, some of us do have foods we can't moderate like that. I used to be obese, and although I'm a healthy BMI now, I know some junk foods are -- for me -- like alcohol for an alcoholic (looking at you, Krispy Kreme!)
This isn't true for everyone, obviously. But just like some people can have an occasional drink and never become alcoholic, some people can use calorie limits alone to stay a healthy size.
I stay a healthy size by simply not having "addictive" foods in the house. So, if I've had a hard day, and I get an evening craving for something junky, I can't just reach for it. I'd have to get dressed and walk a few miles to buy it. So -- getting it would necessitate using the physical energy to burn it off. 😁
Funny story- I just started my new semester, the health teacher was talking about how the number on the scale and how you look doesn’t determine how healthy you are. I pushed back with statistics, and two girls started arguing with me and using HAES talking points. One of them had an oxygen tube in her nose. Can’t make this shit up.
The one saving grace is that no one listens to anyone with an oxygen tube on health topics. It’s like talking running advice from Oscar Pistorius.

@@chilbiyito Health At Every Size
@@chilbiyito it’s an acronym that means “self deletion, the tasty way”
Three things I did to drop some major lbs: 1) I stopped drinking soft drinks, 2) I got a job unloading trucks, and 3) I started stretching every day to keep from throwing my back out unloading trucks. I went down a full clothes size; I've lost and kept off at least 60lbs since then. There's still plenty of room for improvement, but that was a positive course-correction for me. Regular hikes are also fun. When I first started I could barely do a mile. Eight miles in one day has been my record so far.
I wish Dev would pin this comment! Stretching is so important, and not enough people do it. I first learned to do stretching when I was in rehab after having been in a coma, but it's something I've kept up ever since.
I don't think enough people realise the benefits of just hiking (bushwalking because I'm Australian). It's super low impact, costs nothing, and you aren't dreading doing it. (even better if you have a dog and an audiobook to listen to)
Being drawn to high caloric foods was an evolutionary advantage when we could die if we didnt fight for every scrap.
Sadly, we’ve solved food so now it’s killing us
Then let's unsolve food, oh and use cloning to bring back saber tooth tigers because in every metrics we're not good without a natural predator to compete against.
We haven't solved food. At best we've solved calories.
But I agree our innate regulation mechanisms can't handle modern societal stimuli. In this case, it's mostly the appetite accelerant known as sugar at superstimulus levels.
@@ReturnOfHeresyIf we hadn't solved food acquisition at an existence level, %60 of the West would not be overweight - even with appetite stimulants factored in. There wouldn't be enough food to support that many fat people.
Beyond the above, too much of a good thing can often be a bad thing. Food, entertainment, life saving medicines, even water can be lethal in a high enough quantity.
@ReturnOfHeresy it's not only sugar, it's whatever combination of fat + carbs + seasoning/flavorings that results in hyper-palatable/hedonic food reward; there are many hyper-palatable foods that are high in sugar, but many that aren't: potato chips, french fries, nachos, pizza, pastas, burgers, lobster + garlic butter, etc., while almost no one is just binge-eating straight sucrose by the table spoon out of the bag.
What does gym membership have to do with losing weight? If you want to lose weight, it's primarily diet: stop consuming appetite accelerants, the most common is sugar.
It's not sugars...just eat equal or less you consume😊
99% of these fatards are chubbies just because they lack self respect and basic self dicipline...
Yet they accuse every other reason and others for their misery and self made "opression"
Using his expertise, it was nice to hear Dev weigh into the conversation.
(I’ll see myself out)
I know people who gain fat super easily, or people who struggle to shed excess weight with diet and exercise. There are legitimate excuses as to why someone is fat (only in some cases). Someone's genetics can definitely treat them unfairly in this regard.
HOWEVER, saying that "the link between fatness and health isn't well understood," is a bold-faced lie. It's one of the most well understood correlations of all time. Fat = unhealthy, period.
You better call that video “Thicc-tok Thursday”
Ok, I laughed, take my like 🤣
I've been fighting my weight for years. I'm fucking terrified of dying because of it. I can actively feel myself deteriorating every year. I quit smoking almost 5 years ago. I've managed to kick my soda addiction. I'm starting to count calories. But it's really fucking hard to eat less and lose weight when my brain is telling me I'm hungry literally 24 hours a day 7 days a week. I HATE these fat activists. I don't want to be coddled into an early god damned grave! The struggle is real and nothing new to me. I'll keep pushin until I succeed or I die. If I have any advice for anyone in a similar situation, it's that I have personally found it to be easier to change my lifestyle than to break bad habbits. Sometimes a drastic change in your day to day is what is needed and when your life is literally on the line it's worth doing everything you can and giving up anything to succeed.
You need a total of calories to keey your body running
Sugar, because it absorbs fast, can lead to bad effects
Sugars (like starch(bread) and potatoes are multiple sugar molecules chained together, they'll lead to less adverse effects in this one category
Proteins don't have much caloric value, lets ignore them for now, jusg like vitamins you need it to repair your body
Fats take the longest to get into your body
So cheese, fatty meat (mostly fish) those kind of things
Be careful with margarine though its not good like butter and too much canned meat: the salt used to keep it looking fresh is functioning still in your blood, until your liver gets to it
I know little abt your situation but i hope i can help a little
Normally id ask abt your diet, but this is UA-cam
I wish you success with your struggles and want to suggest a different approach (neither calorie restriction nor exercise necessary), the whole-food plant-based diet which was tested in the BROAD study and the results were "Conclusions: This programme led to significant improvements in BMI, cholesterol and other risk factors. To the best of our knowledge, this research has achieved greater weight loss at 6 and 12 months than any other trial that does not limit energy intake or mandate regular exercise."
Good Luck with whatever path you pursue!
Yes, there's no getting around it, you need to find a lifestyle that will keep your hunger in check. Soda is like a complete opposite of that, it will make you hungry. There is this thing called insulin index on Wikipedia that comes with satiety scores, I memorized that. For me, I avoid sugar (with a caveat that some sugar is permissible if I consume fiber at the same time in like an oatmeal). I eat oatmeat/potatos/pasta early in the day and some kind of meat or tofu in the latter part of the day. Maybe some fruits and/or nuts if I feel hungry before bedtime. If for some reason I absolutely need a candy, I make sure it's like a snickers bar with some peanuts in it or a protein bar, it has to have SOME fiber and protein in it. Works so far, but I never was huge, just overweigh, medically obese though.
Insulting the gravity challenged is still fun.
Not sure I can man, I don't have the time to learn to play tuba.
Gravitationally challenged?
Eternal Bulkers
I can't stand this movement, my parents (I am a college student) were and are opposed to my weight loss, despite the fact that I was already prediabetic at 19. The real kicker is that I wasn't even in the obese category. The thing is, I'm not even thin now, just the weight I was before the events of 2020, which is a reasonably healthy weight.
Now, admittedly I started trying to lose weight because I hated looking at myself in the mirror, but my health has also greatly improved, and *weight loss alone was enough to reverse prediabetes.*
I just hope it sticks, but I think I have healthier eating habits now than the ones that I developed when we couldn't do anything but sit and doomscroll all day.
My mom is like that too. When I got down under 200lbs. she constantly complains that I'm too skinny, despite still being overwieght at the time and her and my brother and sister weighing less. From someone who used to rag about my weight when I was in at 250 and 300 lbs, it's infuriating.
Stay away from toxic family.
Ya know I used to worry about my eating habits.
Then I saw what the average obese person eats.
YEEZUS
I am surprised that I was actually binge eating after my life situation changed an started life independently.
Then last year I realized I wasn't eating as much since there was still food before Grocery Day
I'm not hungry all the time, or rather not needing to eat every hour. That's it.
If I feel hungry I WILL eat, just no need for two plates...
Dont let them fool you, those people are only average in America, they are morbidly obese anywhere else, which is an extreme condition. Any amount of excess fat is unhealthy and worth solving quickly before it gets worse. Keep yourself safe
3:45 "What kind of world are we coming to, where a wife can't publicly shame and insult her husband in a totally hypocritical fashion without people pointing out she's not longer a prize, either?"
Wow....
the fact that she got sick and then got back to the pre sick weight really shows how bad her habits was. that's why they often say diets don't work, they might diet for a week and then return to the habits that made them fat.
I was almost 230 and then I did keto for just a month which dropped my weight, but much more importantly, it made it so I didn't feel hungry as often and I just stopped eating as much as I did before.
I hated keto, since I loved coffee with creamer or sweet tea or just a can of soda, all of which would put me over the 20g of carbs I limited myself to.
But after I was done I felt that my senses were heightened and I could hardly stand how sweet some stuff was.
These people burned out their taste buds with constant overload and need a reset.
Same here but i still fall to my habits. I need tough love from people like. @ImTakingYouToFlavorTown
@@ImTakingYouToFlavorTown my general life style changes (diets ends) is practising eating food, that limits the UPF in my diet and makes it less conscious to maintain. eating food puts in a decent place by default and gives better sweetness taste, some crackers have been too sweet for me. stuff like keto I find flawed for losing weight long term as a lifestyle change is slower but puts the stuff in place to replace the bad habits
@@ImTakingYouToFlavorTown I find the reliable way if theres no rush, is just to eat a normal diet of food. when your sweetness level is more adjusted to fruit there be an unconcious protection to stuff not nautrally sweet. its easier for most poeple to get long term results with due to being more lifestyle change than a diet.
True that diet doesn't work, specifically it doesn't work for the long term. I always remind people who are trying to lose weight that what they really need to change is their lifestyle, not diet.
I don’t believe that transgenderism is an immutable characteristic. Perhaps it is for some of them, but then how would you explain the people who later detransition?
Because the inmutable characteristic is gender dysphoria which leads to being transgender.
Detransitioners didn't have that.
As a detrans person myself, agreed. I know too many people in the detrans community whose gender dysphoria has completely resolved, sometimes after 10-20 years.
I personally think gender dysphoria is just a cluster of other mental health issues, and if you resolve those you can get better. The dirty truth is that most trans people have a bunch of mental health problems on top of weird gender essentialist beliefs.
Weakness corrupts. Empowered weakness corrupts absolutely.
Very Nietzsche
Weakness doesn't cprrupt, it just breaks people's spirit. Empowered helplessness is cognitively comfortable though, and people don't want to leave what's comfortable.
@@nef36 There's no such thing as spirit. Nothing to break. Weakness is chosen. Strength can't always be chosen, but weakness always is. There's always an alternative. Pretending there isn't is where the corruption begins.
At least that's been my experience as a mostly weak man.
I think the key is just trying to be better than you were yesterday.
Dev I may have some disagreements with you but you're a good, intelligent dude. you really should get on your health. Your age and your weight isn't a good combo. You're the only one from the old gg/anti-sjw days I listen to anymore and this new flock don't really have that old liberal (not leftist) bent anymore. Nor do most cover topics in the way you do.

@@ShortFatOtakuGood to hear. I'm one of the people who rarely comment but would really miss you if anything happened. Inasmuch as I can care about the health of someone I've never met IRL, I care about yours. And I used to be obese myself, so I grok the struggle.

Living in modern society is very weird nowadays. It's tantamount to being under a collapsing house and wondering which major support beam is going to give out first. Or if the entire foundation will just disappear right under your feet.
Ooh, I'm borrowing this. I feel this way constantly, but couldn't put it into words
@@blackcitadel9Take it.
And when you mention the impending collapse you are called a racist.
There might be a parable in the Bible about building homes on poor foundations. 2000 years and nothing has changed.
@@jameshinds2510 tbh I think the foundation is about as good as any there ever has been in human history. Not perfect by any means, but better than most. We just have a termite infestation lol.
When you were talking about how video game developers/studios would scan models to put in game, therefore refuting the myth of "unrealistic bodies" in games, it got me thinking about that Dove soap commercial that centered around something like that.
I'm actually a bit surprised you didn't bring that up, because you could've probably teared it down a notch as Dove supporting a movement that would help them sell more soap.
My comment was removed immediately
“Maybe we should let them…”
youtubes filters have gotten even dumber then they were. I recently got a warning for hate speech but they dont actually tell you what the comment is or how its hate speech and i got the warning after spending a few hours on youtube, then being off of it for the rest of the day so its not even like it was a recent comment (the last comment id written was too generic to be even remotely controversial).
Eat cake?
According to resident health expert over at Sitch and Adam, Sami G, she says that the best motivator to lose weight is unfortunately health scares. Medical problems that lead to people fearing for their life. Sad as it is, that seems to be the best motivator for people to lose weight. It's just a shame that it sometimes happens too late for them to do anything about it.
When you think about it, fear is always, ALWAYS the motivator. Because when, let's say, you're driven "positively" by a desire, you better be motivated by fear of not getting what it is that you want. That's when people actually bust their asses off attaining what they want, not when they're daydreaming about what a great thing it is that they want.
No one can escape Darwinism
I don't know about that, Twitter users and politicians seem to just fine
Everyone escapes Darwinism (eventually)! Dead people don’t care what Darwin said!
Phobia is one of the most mis-used terms in the modern age.
I'm mostly crippled, I spend 12 or more hours a day in my bed, but I'm still only 215-220.
Want to know how? I avoid snacking and soda. I eat big meals still, sure, but seriously, most people would be able to maintain a chubby but relatively healthy weight by just drinking tea without a cup of sugar and not eating chips all the time.
Before my spine went out I was 200 pounds and that was a lot more muscle.
It's been 9 years, but I haven't ballooned up like these people do even when they work actual jobs (I'm a writer.)
Or, instead of tea or other flavored drinks, you could just drink water. I eat whatever I want, candy, chips, cookies, ice cream every night, I’ll drink a soda once a week tops. But I do intermittent fasting. I just don’t eat from like 7 pm to noon. I’m mid 40s 6’1 and weigh a whopping 160 and have been at this weight since senior year of high school. Well, that’s not true, in my mid 20s I went heavy on the booze and topped out at 180.
Only eat dinner, tend to skip breakfast and maybe eat a cookie with tea as lunch. What's wrong with regular tea?
@@sumkindacheeto Nothing. But if you go to fast food places the sweet tea has way too much sugar. Also, it seems that the South loves their sweet tea with a lot of sugar.
When someone is dealing with an issue, whether its being overweight or having mental problems, other people should support and encourage them in getting better, but they should NEVER excuse them.
My only fatphobia is a fear of one tripping and landing on me
My only fear is when I am forced into confined spaces like trains, buses and airplanes.
I despise being forced to touch someone else because they cannot fit in their seat.
The best method i found to decrease weight isnt hitting the gym, but just eating right. I slowly lost weight and got to a decently healthy spot after i cut out soda and snacks. You don't need to starve yourself and hit the gym every day
You know, I wouldn't even entertain this idea if not for the MAID stuff in Canada, but you guys think that the support fat activism got in the medical community is an effort to diminish populations prone to medical risks?
No, fat activism discourages people getting healthy. And since fatness is a slow killer it means you put more burdon on the system the more fat people there are.
If there is a conspriacy it's with the food industry, especicially sugar and carbs.
“A obese person can survive 8-14 weeks without eating before they die”…..”with correct supplementation they can survive up to 3 months without eating solid food depending on fat content in the body”
I stopped at 0:40. "The implication is that some preferences are not subject to external factors such as societal norms".
YES. I'd like to press some of these leftoids on this. It's an obvious point of doublethink that upends everything they stand for.
I'm not sure I understand what the double think here is? Could you elaborate? Not trying to be rude, I just don't understand what you mean exactly.
@@iMAOusucthey’re allowed to have types but nobody else is. You ever think it’s weird that so many of these people date fit white dudes?
Edit: or rather, they want to. That’s why they’re mad, they can’t get any.
@@iMAOusuc If all of our preferences are determined by external factors, why is there an 2SLGBTQ+?
Also the moral foundation of all arguments becomes reducible to "We just want to change you to favor us more" once you remove inherent preferences from the discussion, which sure is an eldritch and sinister to view a group actively campaigning to influence public opinion away from plus life scale plus family size plus personal responsibility habits and beliefs
@gavinriley5232 Ohhhhhh, that makes sense. Okay now I get the point of the precious poster. Thanks so much! Appreciate the info!
Being fit is objectively better, no way you can cope your way out of it
okay, this made me want to start lifting again
Some kid called me fat once.
So I ate him.
Isn’t that cannibalism
Caseoh ahh story time
"Fat is healthy" "You can pick your gender"
The party of follow the science and trust the facts
Dev believes the latter so it kind of undermines his whole argument
Covid is real though. And the rightwing DID deny science. I think this just means almost everyone is stupid.
@@305Independent he's got some justification there since if you want to get technical "sex" is often used to refer to biology while "gender" is often used to describe cultural attitudes, behavior, and psychology which is why a lot of medical forms list "sex: M or F" rather then asking "gender" and the more liberal forms will ask both sex _and_ gender so they can get your biological sex and your preferred gender terms since regardless of what you want people to call you if you're biologically male or female still has a ton of importance for many things like drug dosages and various other medical things. Also I havent watched all of his videos and i've got a goldfish memory but i think he's said similar things in the past, saying that people can self describe themselves with any gender they want but not to force that on other people and stating that basic biology is irrefutable.
Forcing others to conform to your mental state is evil.
Biology is not something you decide.
Not only can someone NOT become attracted to someone they are not attracted to--one of the key reasons we got rid of arranged marriages--they have no obligation to even make the attempt. Whether it's your weight, your BO, your skin color or that fifth freckle that lands somewhere they don't care for on your right cheek, your reaction to their rejection is not their problem. It's yours. Have fun getting over that.
As a big guy myself, I used food as a coping mechanism for depression. But I met some people at my local gym and I look forward to working out, and I've gotten better eating habits.
Dev, we're still waiting on you to go through your Uncle Iroh gorilla transformation. We believe in you
A lot of uploads recently, that's great.
you can be as fat as you want as long as you know and accept the risks, which gradually get higher with more weight. Do not lash out at others because theyre trying to reduce those risks by losing weight, it's so childish.
Crabs in a bucket.
That's how addicts behave. They try to find every excuse that justifies their addiction and lash out against anyone who beat their addiction for exposing the addict as the fraud that they are.
Ive lost almost 40lbs in 6 months, going for another 20lbs. I ride my bike (exercise bike now that its winter) for a hour and other exercises. Ive also try to cut out the most fatty foods i ate (pizza being the worst one) but im just trying to eat less, but not change what im eating. That can be done later. My progress is slow, but its still progress. Hopefully with another month or two ill be at my weight goal.
People need to understand, will power is not something your born with, it's something you cultivate!

As someone who got up to 305 pounds at my worst, then made a lot of changes and got back to a healthy 190 lbs and I'm jogging up to 10k now....
Yes, it is absolutely down to willpower. I was weak - and now I'm strong. I was a fat bitch and now I've taken accountability and responsibility. I can do this. I will do this.
As the great Bill Burr once said, “You ate your way in, you can walk your way out.”

@@alnu8355 haha na.. it’s a good thing that our systems have a maximum weight authorized by the FAA.
It's odd that the same loose mentality that tells us that having sexual preferences is "fat-phobic" is the same group of people who scoff at the notion that gay-is-a-choice. If a person can just _CHOOSE_ to be attracted to something else, then gay must also be a choice, right?
Hear me out. Sounds like this issue is solving itself.
Willpower and discipline are skills. They’re hard to learn but it’s possible. Anyone CAN do it but not everyone will. They’re too soft mentally and physically.
Honestly as someone who got bariatric surgery to help me lose weight it has helped alot. I still deal with my cravings which is at the heart of all this.
People use food as comfort like drugs booze or porn and they have to rationalize how its normal and healthy cause they dont want to admit to the problem.
I honestly wish people had broken through with them to get them to change and improve themselves.
Nobody is more fatphobic to your body than your own heart
Not true. Think of the joints
Your heart consumes a lot of energy, transported to it in the form of fat, but also carbs and a couple other things. Come to think of it, your heart enjoys eating fat more than anything else except your brain, which consumes even more energy and gets almost all
of it from fat.
Man I’m 230 pounds and could do some more exercise but *DAMN* compared to these people I’m Eugenia Cooney!
When I was at my heaviest I was 330 pounds. I suddenly began to notice how out of breath I was. I figured well it's just my weight I'll lose some and feel better. 2 weeks later I was in an ambulance and later found out it was heart failure. The way I treated food was like drugs. I would eat completely different if there were people around vs when I was alone. I would eat absolutely everything until I felt sick if nobody was watching. I had to change my whole perspective on what food is and I have to constantly be vigilant to not fall back into my old habits. But there will be a point in all these people's lives where they can make a choice to change or not and this will be the outcome.
Huh, was wondering when you'd jump on this one Dev.
So I have never been obese but I usually weighed an average of 220lbs. My room mate/landlord was doing keto and kept talking to me about it. I decided to look at my calorie intake and realized I was eating upwards of 4,000 calories a day. So with a physical job along with calorie counting/intermittent fasting I lost 30 lbs in 6 months.
The fat acceptance movement is insane. But there's a very small subset of fat people who actually can't control their weight which is usually tied to a medical condition. A friend of mine had his back injured in a car crash. He was always large (like 270lbs) growing up but not what I would consider disgustingly obese. When I went to see him again I was absolutely disgusted at how he had let himself go (350lbs+). However later I realized why when he stepped on a stair wrong and was laid up in a chair for 4+ hours due to back pain. Over the years he's worked on his weight to bring it down but it was exceptionally challenging due to his damaged back.
My mothers also a good example. She's been overweight ever since giving birth to us. She finally started trying to tackle her weight in different ways. She went to a food doctor for blood tests and found she's not deathly allergic to some foods but somewhat allergic (cramps, weight gain, headaches etc). She changed her eating habits, but out sweets and other things, but in the end no matter what she does she can't seem to lose weight. Even so far as eating a fraction of the calories she's supposed to.
I know these are anecdotal examples but the premise behind them is the same. That there is a subset of truly fat/obese people who can't lose weight simply due to their own bodies or a medical condition. The problem is the entire fat acceptance movement try to use this excuse for what is simply falling to gluttony and lacking self control.
"Even so far as eating a fraction of the calories..."
Sorry but there are calories being snuck in there that are not being counted.
Thanks Dev I am no longer obsessed. After watching the video you referenced at 1:05 years ago it made me so disgusted at this movement that I didn't want to be obsessed anymore. I was 250lb at that time but now I weigh around 170lb. Thank you Dev seriously, your vid changed my life. Hopefully one day you stop being so fat yourself.
Obesity is linked to early onset osteoarthritis. That's just a fact. More weight results in more mechanical stress on joints.
It is also directly linked to increased rates of cancer. Increased central adiposity results in increased inflammation, which results in increases results of malignancy
I don't think we should hate fat people. But I don't think we should praise obesity. Severe obesity is a medical problem, and those that suffer from it deserve sympathy.
The fat activist movement is nothing more than an extreme case of "sour grapes". I would bet my life that if there was a pain free and affordable way for those people to lose weight and keep it off, they would leap at the chance. But they feel they can never be thin so they decide that, rather than come to terms with not being able to have what they want, they pretend that they never wanted that in the first place.
"Bah, I don't want no sour grapes" the fox said when he couldn't reach them.
"Bah, I don't want to be thin!" Said the fat activist when their 10th diet regimen failed.
bigga please
As someone who has been obese two different times in my life and was able to lose the weight and get back to healthy both times i toltally agree with that study. Incentives only work for a short while. Honestly the best incentive i found was each pound i lost and the compliments i got when I started getting closer to my target. Your will power is something that isnt there or not there. Youve gotta teain your will power like you train your body. Nothing is given in this world and you need to be willing to step up and be your own advocate for a better and healthier life. Ive lost 85 lbs total in my life and each one was worth the effort when i look back at the old pictures and compare my past self to my current one.
Natural selection at its finest
I've been putting on the pounds a bit lately, and this video encouraged me to do some squats and planks. Thanks, Dev.
For a while now, I've been saying I'd accept a form of universal healthcare as long as your body fat content was under a certain percentage and you had annual heath tests that put you into different tax brackets.
This is exactly why I don't think the US can ever have Healthcare. You are literally making your health the governments business. If anyone thinks "fat phobia" is bad now, they should be terrified of the world where they are costing other people money.
Good or not in the US you have the freedom to destroy your own body, and its a bit too fundamental to the US identity to lose that.
I had a crazy experience a few years back. I was running an RPG at a gaming convention and had a trio of women show up for a session. All 3 were morbidly obese which isn't uncommon in the RPG community, and I thought nothing of it.
As I ran the game, all 3 were acting aggressive and being argumentative towards me. So after the game, I wanted to see if i had said or done something to upset them.
They said I was fat shaming them because Im thin and jacked. Then they just walked off like they had a drop the mike moment.
I left it at that, but if they had taken the time to find out the reason im jacked, they would have learned it is because I have severe depression and only vigerous exercise helps with it.
I just felt so deflated after hearing that. It also makes me wonder how many others are judging me by my appearance?
Close to the chest, Dev?
“I have cancer and went from extremely overweight to extremely underweight and both are bad, the best option is a balance between them”
“Errrm, body shaming much??? Also you have cancer???”
The future will belong to those who turn up for it.
I think the problem is that people are online far too much. I didn't even know fit people were being called right wing just for being fit now.
Get rid of tik tok, instagram, Facebook, whatever else social media thing is out now. It's truly adding nothing to your life. You'll be a lot happier.
Couldnt get past the 40 second mark before the first thought was "Isn't this the same argument used for 'conversion theropy'?"... Back to the video.
Same here, obese, yoyoing,
But I refuse to become body-positive and refuse to claim that being overweight healthy
And nothing of value was lost.
Struggling to climb out of bed and walk to the fridge is your bodies way of telling you "your not healthy, lose weight".
😂 Health and nutrition are totally hateful concepts.
I’ve been overweight and I’ve been healthy and slim. I was never happy being overweight. I was always happy being slim and healthy
