Fat Fatty McFatso, Duke of Fattington (Fat People, Addendum)

Nobody is rushing to the defense of ugly cars. Nobody is bashing Ferrari for setting unrealistic body standards. Nobody is telling Car and Driver not to put pictures of photo shopped exotic cars on their magazine covers because nobody can realistically afford one. This whole "body diversity" movement is just a bunch of insecure crybabies screaming for validation.

I'm NOT sorry that you're fat. I'm NOT sorry that you lack ambition. I'm NOT sorry that it makes you feel bad to have all of this pointed out to you. There are only two ways for you to not feel bad about yourself when you look at a magazine if you base any part of your self image on your appearance (which you [probably] do): to destroy the natural standard so that you are equally as attractive as the models or to commit to diet and exercise and actually work and sweat and raise yourself to the same level of fitness as the models through sheer grit and determination.

Yes, I know which one you'll choose because just about everyone has already made the choice. You want the secret to weight loss? Diet and exercise. Absorb less energy than you expend. Boom. Done. It's officially your fault (probably) if you're not losing weight.
