I used to be a fat person. I was 220 lbs. I considered myself fat.
I lost 94 pounds. My demands on the worlds resources didn't change.
Except maybe I demanded more oxygen then.
I still mostly eat the same way, monetarily, sometimes more expensively since I lost weight.
I'm not sure that my marshmallow, pasta, and bread consumption when I was very overweight was too taxing to the resources of the planet.
I was actually vegetarian during most of my overweight periods.
And had less visits to the doctor than I do now.
Maybe I'm an anomaly, but I'm going on my experience.

And what's funny is that in my town 95% of the drivers of SmartCars are morbidly obese. It's hilarious to see because it does kinda look like a clown car. But their carbon footprint in that respect is smaller than mine.

I'm trying to see your point here, squeeb, but I'm not sure that I do.
