Fat is still ugly, trust me i know it, have been fat a few times myself.
There's a big difference between being healthy with a few extra pounds(your example with foreign people/ historical people, who would still do manual labor everyday) and being too fat and too weak to do basically anything.
But no muscles+ fat= devastatingly unhealthy and unattractive. This is especially true for women, with their smaller frames, less musclemass, more fat... Personal example: When i finally joined Facebook not too long ago, i couldn't believe what happened too most of the girls i lost contact with. Really sweet and beautifull women at 20, now 10 years and 10 kilos later they all look like crap. One female friend who would turn every mans head(i mean that literally, easily a 9+) now looks like... i don't know...a fatty with an angels face? 4 or 5 max.
The good thing is, it's absolutly in your own hands.
I've seen absolutly spectactular results for people switching to a Paleo-style nutrition and strength training. I wouldn't recommend your raw, veggie diet because basically nobody would accept that for the rest of their life, and it's most probably unhealthy to do so.

there is too much pride in this thread....

stop eating when your hunger is gone, not when youve gouged yourself into submission.

I grew tired of making jokes about having a gut and got Atkins. I've been in the Induction Phase for two weeks and have dropped 15 pounds. The government says I need to weigh 158 pounds but I'll be happy and healthy at 170, so.... I got 60 pounds to go. Looks like I will be in the Induction Phase for another 8 weeks. Then I go on to the permanent maintenance plan. I don't mind it too much. I admit that I miss sugary drinks along with rice, potatoes, pasta and bread, but they weren't doing me any good. After I quit smoking cigarettes I started taking my problems out to dinner way too often and got way too comfortable eating junk food and too much starch. I had to draw a line in the sand and you fat fucks could go the Atkins route a while too.

Weird rant.

You know your fat when you look down and can't see your toes.
You know your fat when you have to tie a string on your dick to shake it off cause you can't reach it with your hand.
 
i've been "fat" all my life; its in the genetics and i have tried every "diet" in existence. i worked on the lumber greenchain and ate 1000 cal. a day and did not loose, got a lot of muscle but still looked "fat". i eat non fast food and no deep fried junk which i think causes alot of the problems in america/canada.

at graduation i was 6' 3" and over 300 lbs, now nearing 60; im 6' 3" and over 300 lbs. got down to 225 once but climbed back up over time. some peeps are born to be fat. im also a diabetic so no sugars. go figure?

being fat is a burning insult personally as people who dont know my history are quick to judge, the ones i quiver at are the walking skeletons; like models of today.

When you do a bomb into the local pool and children get flung out with the splash and the water level drops a foot despite the displacement....
When even non elasticated top socks cut off the circulation to your feet......
When Big and Tall has to special order your underpants.....
When you need a twisty tie to fasten your watchstrap.....
When you have to shuffle around on the toilet seat, pulling your cheeks apart to make sure your bung hole is over the drop zone and not on the seat.

Your thighs rub together when walking and you break out in a sweat.
Plus lack of breath.

You know you're fat when all your XXL Dickies shirts don't fit right anymore...LOL.

I used to fill out an XXL Dickies at one point, 280 lbs. is where I maxed out in 2006..went down to 195 for awhile, then went back up for a few years, then back down again in 2012 to stay for good. This last time took quite a bit of work though..weight really started to come off in April and May of last year, and has stayed off so far, but I've changed my diet too.

It's not fun being fat as far as self esteem goes, but I got a lot of love from people for some reason which made up for it I guess. Still, it sucks waking up and seeing your fat stomach full of Taco Bell and cupcakes and getting depressed about being so out of shape and just unhealthy overall.

At one point, I couldn't breathe right and my friends started calling me "Darth".

When it makes the sound of a vacuum being broken when you stand up from the toilet(Google the woman whose innards got sucked out on an cruiseship crapper cos she was so fat)
When the local takeaway owner thanks you for paying for his porsche.
When you have "Cankles"
When small children play hide and seek in your folds.

And seriously--when you have a flesh eating bug because the folds of flab hold nasty bacteria and you can't physically wash yourself.
PS I've still got my 30 inch waist......


hey now, thats not fair. im at the perfect weight for my height and have always been athletic. but i have the dreaded cankles, and i have since i was a child.
