I do get rightly pissed off when comments are made against fat people. A majority of the non-fat asses in this world think that if you're fat, it's your own damn fault and that you caused it. Ha! There is such a thing as genetics. There is such a thing as differing metabolic rates.

I'm fat but it doesn't bother me. I know that the only way for me to lose weight is to exercise a ton and eat completely healthy and in small quantities. One premise that I will NOT let slide is the fact that some people's metabolic rates are different than others. My friends in high school sat on their asses and played videogames all day. At lunch they'd eat two slices of pizza, french fries, icecream, and a drink. I'd eat the main item and the side item and tea. They never gained a pound and remainded skinny. If I varied from my two-item diet, I'd gain weight in no-time flat. Some people simply gain weight and lose weight faster than others. Some people can eat whatever they want for their entire lives without gaining weight.

Another aforementioned topic is being born fat. My grandpa and my dad are fat. I was born fat and always have been fat. I was down to eating barely anything all day in high school and still remained over 200 pounds. Now I eat what I want and have levelled off at around 260 being 5'10". I wouldn't be skinny eating a normal diet...I simply wouldn't.

My point? Diets do affect how fat you are, but it only goes so far for some people. Before you decide that a person is fat because they eat too much, try to remember that some people are born with low metabolic rates. It's not stuffing our faces that makes all fat people big -- it's simply their genetic build.

I'm personally glad there are fat people in this world -- I think chubby girls are 1000% cuter than skinny girls. To all of the chubby girls out there: you're hot.
