I went to the gym today at Planet Fitness and it was pizza day. Some overweight people went straight to the pizza, they didn't hesitate at all. A fat woman was chomping a slice down like she came only for the pizza and not to exercise.
Remember that this is a gym and not a restaurant, a gym that promotes weight loss. You would think that in a gym people would have some self control. Tell themselves "Ignore the pizza, I'm here to lose weight" But they don't, I think they are addicted to food.
What do you think?

Look, I'm skinny as a rail, always have been. From my limited understanding, people love food. That's never going to change. It's really just a matter of making time for exercise and making an eating plan that works. In our busy 1st world lives, people get accustomed to worrying more about external problems like debt and work than internal problems like mental and physical health. Sometimes that weight gained is even a product of a food-based coping mechanism for an underlying mental health problem. That's why people stay obese.
