What I don't get is the relative effort. To go through the process of coming to this hypothetical state of acceptance and happiness with obesity has shown to take them years. They all talk about how they have spent decades hating themselves and trying not to and that it's always a battle. Weight loss, however, only needs to be done once and it only takes 1 year unless you're crazy fat. After it's done, it's not a battle. You just like yourself. Fats don't seem to understand that their road of acceptance is actually way harder.

I read "Were you able to discard your cats seatbelt extender" and I like that version of your monologue better
I like to think this whole body positive fat acceptance shenanighans bs was started by some tumblirina whale out in California.
My solution: Wait until California secedes from the USA. Then put a fucking fence around California. We don't need a fence on the Mexico border... Just California.
Be careful what you wish for. We (California) are one of the shitlordiest of states. Ditch us and the US just gets fatter. http://stateofobesity.org/adult-obesity/
*It is "secede," not "succeed." We are already "succeeding."

yeah good catch, autocorrect is a bitch. succeeding at self imploding, yes you are in comiefornia. I'm okay with that, I would take all the fats in the world if it meant goodbye to that shit-hole of a state and to never have to look at that conniving witch Feinstein again..
I'll take that, or the california underwater scenario. I'm okay with either option. Please flush it all away along with the gun toting hip gangster wannabee's ;)

I would say a person who has made such declarations as you set forth is suffering from a form of the Dunning Kruger effect. While this isn't 'skills' per se, a fatty's ability to convince themselves that they have made good choices, nay, better choices than experts (the fit), leads me to believe they suffer from a form of this effect.

I'm not sure if it's dunning Kruger (but let's face it, the fats by and large (teehee) are the stupidest and thus the loudest) but they DEFINITELY provide perfect, textbook examples of all the cognitive distortions and defense mechanisms since it takes an intricate web of lies and self delusion to even accomplish what OP described.
