This job really makes me depressed. I'm not a healthfag or anything (I indulge in crap foods sometimes myself), but seeing people come through with a month's worth of groceries and not ringing up a single healthy item makes me weep. Why do people choose to deal with so many health problems, shit quality of life, and condemn themselves to early death rather than just eat real food?

Its because junk food is like drugs (especially sugar). Eating it makes you feel really good in the moment and then later you are depressed and feel like shit. So what do you do? You go back and have another piece of cake because it made you happy when you ate it. Its sad but in a society where we have unlimited access to all the garbage its hard to say no. In my experience (ex-fatty) going cold turkey is the only way to go. I went strictly water and paleo-diet minus red meat. It sucked but after that I didn't crave sweets. Artificial sweetners sabotage the process of kicking the "sweet tooth" too since they are just recreating the sensation without the sugar. Sure in comparison diet coke is definitely better than a regular coke but it doesn't help you not crave other sweet things.

Sorry I got a little off topic.

This is a lie. Most of their eating is joyless, even mindless. They don't even notice what they're shoveling into their mouths while they sit in front of the television. All they know if if they stop doing it they get hungry and bitchy.

They are disgusted with themselves when they look in the mirror or step on a scale. They have eaten themselves into practically being handicapped. They have aches and pains, and increasingly their lives become defined by the things they can't do anymore. That's when their health starts going downhill, and they end up pretty much trapped in their houses, stocked up with crap food and prescription drugs.

By this point their condition is so overwhelming they feel there's nothing they can do about it. They're not enjoying the hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, lack of mobility and general slide into decrepitude. They're depressed.

Maybe some cheese and crackers can take their minds off it for a minute, but when it takes them 30 seconds to get off the couch the enjoyment is over.

watch the documentary Fat Head.

tldr: faulty science from the 1950s lead everyone to believe that fat=bad. Typical diets are mostly a metric fuckton of carbohydrates now. Constant supply of sugar into the blood leads to increased insulin production and eventually insulin resistance. Because of insulin resistance, fat people's cells can't take up the blood sugar properly, so while there is plenty of fuel floating through the body, the cells are still starving. The body believes its starving (even though you've just eaten and should be satiated) and thus you eat more. This of course results in a vicious cycle of increased obesity/eating leading to further insulin resistance leading to increased obesity/eating.

The worst was when I would see people who looked poor buying slightly expensive food. Or name brand items.

It would just make me depressed because they could have just bought the store brand kind or whatever and saved enough money to buy even more food. Granted I dont know if they were ACTUALLY poor, but if they looked it I would just get depressed.

That's how it starts. Then once they get big the vicious circle kicks in. They get more depressed by how they look, and the physical consequences of carrying all that weight around. Half-assed attempts at diet and exercise don't give them the results they'd like to see fast enough, they become disheartened, and blow up bigger. Being huge increasingly becomes the source of their depression, especially as it starts keeping them from doing things they want to, and starts fucking up their health.

OP, Wal-marts are located on the fringes of metropolitan areas. They simply are not the daily/weekly shopping meccas you think they are. People do actually stock up there, much as they do at Costco/BJs/Sam's Club, on great deals for their pantries. When they need salad, milk, bananas, bread and fresh chicken, they'll probably get that near their houses when they run out.

So, who shops Wal-Mart? Thrifty people who have cars and shop at several markets throughout the month. This is the de facto Costco customer too. This is how the prosperous shop, buying extreme amounts at the right price, and alternating stores. You might also spend at lot if you entertain, doing some party time shopping for houseguests.

Fat people will be fat. It's not a Wal-Mart thing, but people on fixed incomes, ie disabled/ill, might look into saving money and find it worth the drive.

You make it sound like carbohydrates haven't been the main macronutrient of the human diet for millions of years. What's changed is too much food has been refined, and of course fat (the most calorie dense macronutrient) is present everywhere, providing excess calories, damaging the lining of our arteries, and raising cholesterol.

And I don't buy the idea that in the 1950s some mad scientist just decided to make up nutrition laws in his head and then everybody accepted it and nobody said anything until Robert Atkins came and told us the TRUTH (before having 2 heart attacks and dying, of course).

Huh? Have you no idea that people other than the elderly have fucked up knees or backs, or invisible diseases like fibromyalgia, MS, breathing disorders? Maybe where you shop, your store should paint more handicapped spaces, install more bathroom stalls with access, and have more than 1 single solitary charged up or working scooter.

Know why stores have scooters in the first place? To make money from as many customer types and bases as possible. You want everyone to shop there vs elsewhere.

Look haggling is cultural in most cases. It's just a completely different mentality. So, what seems like a rude person just trying to milk the system isn't always that, but someone taught a different way other than your own.

But, a thrift shop is supporting both sides of the community, the parent company benefiting from donations that bring income, and the types of people buying used clothing. You should feel vindicated in the zero tolerance prosecution policy Goodwill has when employees give discounts to poor customers, however, but note that hardly anyone else does that. If you have a charitable heart, you recognize need when you see it, and understand the intention of the person making a donation was to go towards exactly that type of person in the first place.

It is also tied to lower income cultural ties. Your environment when you are young helps to define your habits well into adulthood. Many cheap and "filling" foods are also quite cheap. A person on a tight budget will eat the food that will offer the most basic need of satiating hunger first and foremost and feed their children the same goods. These foods will, over time, cause obesity. They also create a cultural stamp on the economic class the person may live in, as it becomes expected to move in lockstep and enjoy the same foods everyone around you enjoys. You create a cyclical culture of poverty and poor health.

As someone who has been depressed enough to spend days in bed and feels anxious about thinking about all the things I had to do but all the people/problems I would encounter if I went outside, I think you are incorrect.

Although personally I think the majority of my depression is caused by my anxiety because I over think shit all day and try to think ahead of/plan/control the experience and outcome of everything I plan to do so I won't be surprised and therefore anxious about anything.

Yeah I"m a bit crazy. Caffeine and sugar do not help this really but they give Mr a temporary reprieve from having to feel and think toouch at once.

I don't know about going on the paleodiet thing but I firmly believe there's a point where you are incaoeable of eating moderate amounts of sweets and are able to have them regularly. That's a level of control and mental discipline that many people may find hard to have at first.

Going cold turkey from junk food/salt will probably give someone irritability, headaches, mood problems, etc for a week or two, but ultimately I think cold turkey is the best solution for junk food problems.

If you're not worried about how many sweets you had/can have or getting up and just eating it all then you have less to think/be anxious about and can plan your normal eating/living better.

No. I know what to expect from most social situations. Where I'm going, what I'm doing, who I'm with, what they are like, what they expect. I know all these things before I go places. So long as I know this and can basically predict the outcome/events that will happen, I'm just fine and in fact quite social.

Like I could go to a small concert and have fun by myself without drinking because the reality is most people will ignore me and unexpected things won't happen, but I prepare for some unexpected stuff like awkward mosh king or people with no sense of how to treat others who would rather make fun of me than ignore me.

What bothers me is going out to the store or going biking and receiving attention I did not warrant or expect, like guys shouting things from lawns (derogatory, I'm fat) or really awkward and unexpected social situations at the store. I end up feeling panicked and just want to go home as quickly as possible and bike as fast as I can to get back to my apartment which is safe.

I could never work as a cashier because it's too many people too fast and their behaviors and reasons for those behaviors are so varied that I would end up harshly categorizing them in order to deal, which would then make me bitter to many groups because the categorizing dehumanizes them, and it makes me more of an anxious, embittered person.

People actually describe me as being very intuitive and receptive to the needs of others. I just really tend not to get caught up in emotions, not even anger. I understand what emotion does to you, makes you act in weird ways, makes you do things you normally wouldn't.

My difficulty is in trying to balance having a level of control over things that I feel comfortable and safe, but to not overdo it and become obsessively neurotic to the point where any deviation from the schedule causes massive panic attacks or something.

Stop ordering a round of change just because you're out of nickels. Its annoying as fuck.
Just order a roll of nickels by themselves.

Foreman grill or slow cooker.

Throw a chicken breast on foreman grill for 6-7 mins. Removed add sauce.

Microwave your rice. Done.

Protein + carbs. Easy to know macros as well just weight the rice and chicken on a kitchen scale done.

If you're extremely busy you can cook before hand and pack the meals into plastic containers.

You sound so fucking pathetic. Reminds me of my cousins. Moans and groans for me to help him with his diet as soon as I suggest something he says its too hard to make etc.

It's a fallacy. The people that die young absolutely cost the social services/medical budgets far less. So even in some nanny state you dream about, the old geezer who is 93-100 in dementia care in a 20k/week nursing home is going to cost you far more than the heart attack victim at age 50 who had 15 years of diabetes and disability.

Food is comforting. Food doesn't judge you. Food doesn't yell at you or tease you. Food is instant gratification, especially if it only takes 90 seconds to cook. Food is entertainment. Food is something to look forward to.

When you don't have anything else going on in life, food because a top priority; not for sustenance, but to keep the bad feelings away. When you've become so obese you've lost all mobility, what do you have to look forward to in life besides a heart attack?

When you see a morbidly obese person chucking boxes of oreos and twinkies and frozen tv dinners into the cart, don't think of them as gluttonous pigs, think of them as depressed fools.

They put in an 'action code' (theres quite a few different ones, one for change, one for reciept paper, one for bathroom breaks ect ) and they just type in how much of what denomination they need. Coins, bills, whatever.
Our palm pilot thing beeps and says "This guy over here needs ______"
Its really nifty, but a 'round of change' means they need a roll of every goddamn coin. Quarters, dimes, nickels, pennies. ...which 99% of the time they don't.
They're just getting low on dimes, but are too fucking lazy to press a couple extra buttons to order 'just' them.

Its not as easy to be "too fat to work" as you think. You have to have developed series health risks on top of being too large to hold a job (although thats hard to do with cubicle jobs) and at that point with your medical bills youre probably not even breaking even.

Jesus, I just happened to check in with this thread again. I guess I'll address your apparent issues with what I said
I wasn't advocating outlawing anything, I'm not even sure how you got that from what I said. I also wasn't suggesting people change their behavior (although I think if its that bad then yes they should but I wasn't getting at that in my original reply). I was just telling him the things I learned about junk food and sugar during my dieting process. I probably could find sources to cite, but honestly I really don't feel like it. And OP wasn't necessarily calling out fat people, its likely yes, but maybe he genuinely wanted to know what people thought. I answered him. Is paleodiet a "buzz word?" I didn't know, but its a decent description of the diet and most people know it and seeing its what I did it was easier to say that than explain my diet. I've also never been to /pol/. I don't know shit about politics, or really have an interest in them tbh.
