Losing significant weight is very difficult

obesity is not caused by a lack of willpower

I think the Olympian would disagree with the author here.

It's not /r/cringe

It's entirely possible for a naturally thin person to be a couch potato and for a heavier person to run five miles a day and have a soft spot for kale, because all bodies look different (which is pretty cool, by the way), and because the relationship between health and weight is complex. Factors like age, genetics, underlying conditions and dieting history all contribute to that number we see on the scale, and you can never tell exactly what someone's eating and exercise habits are just by looking at them.

Absolute bullshit. I can, in fact, look at you and tell what your eating and exercise habits are like. It's very simple. Calories in < calories burned = weight loss. While other factors do come into play, you can't escape that simple fact.

The hamstering involved in the fat acceptance movement is mind boggling. Not sure if anything frustrates me more

Obviously someone is pandering to their readership...

What a fucking tool.
