I especially hate the time excuse. Time fills what you give it. If they truly cared about achieving weight loss, they'd make time for it.

Plus many exercises combine cardio with strength training, (burpees, jump squats, etc)

Not to mention you actually SAVE time by eating less, even if you don't want to exercise, it saves time and money to just eat less.

They have no time because they hit the snooze button for an hour, then have to rush to look presentable (their opinion, not ours), and then have to hit up Starbucks on the way to work, ordering some nonsense that takes extra time to make. We all see them rush into work every day at the last minute with wet hair.

I sometimes think the excuses thing is just a way to tire anyone who mentions their fat. You try and help or criticise and they throw so many excuses at you that you get bored and leave.

Thats exactly it. They have a rolodex of excuses and it's a war of attrition. Like Mark Twain said, "don't argue with stupid people, they bring you down to their level and win with experience"

I'm sorry, but I have to ask. Is every 2018 person depressed? Why, though? Why is it that when the world is at its best point ever in terms of providing for human necesities and comfort, everyone is "depressed"? Most persons, of most countries, have a pretty much guaranteed decent life from the moment they are born, thanks to the way the world is today. So why is it that every person I see on the Internet is so depressed? And I don't mean to be disrespectful, or to imply that mental health is something to joke about, but I seriously don't understand why every-fucking-one is depressed.

It's because of the massive popularity of social media. Social media is truly a disease. You see all these people doing well and living lavish lifestyles, building businesses, doing big things and you compare yourself to them and you feel inadequate. That is why most people are depressed.

Delete social media and you live a happier life. I truly believe that. Delete that shit. All the instant gratification and mental masturbation shit has to go. Delete Snapchat, facebook, Twitter and Instagram and I guarantee you'll be happier. The only thing I use is Facebook and that's for business. I don't look at what my friends on there are up to because I don't care, and even if I did, how does their life affect me positively in any way? It's just a net negative.

Lack on human affection, talking through screens, avoiding looking into anyone's eyes, growing up being told not to feel anything, lack of physical activity. There's a host of real reasons for depression.

That being said, the majority of people aren't clinically depressed, they're just unhappy at times and thus "I'm depressed" as in not dealing with what human feelings they're experiencing at the time. I have a whole lecture on why everyone claims to have some type of mental illness, but it's too much for this type of forum. The gist is we don't know how to feel.

For me my depression stemmed from several years of abuse and neglect. Even if the abuse and neglect was over with years ago, the damage has been done.

I struggle with self esteem issues and sometimes when a situation or someone comes up that reminds me of the abuse I endured, I go back into that black hole of depression and wanting to die just so I don’t have to deal with the pain anymore.

It takes years for abuse victims to stop being depressed. I give myself maybe another 5-10 years of being abuse/neglect-free to finally stop feeling like I’m back in childhood suffering.

It pisses me off to no end when people cry about being depressed and they NEVER went through abuse or situations that actually causes depression (aka living in oppression, war torn countries, being in a cult, having their lives in danger, etc.)

Not offended at all, this bugs me as well. I’m 35 and was diagnosed at 19 and I’ve desperately tried over the years to find ways to get better but I truly do have clinical depression and I see so many people say they have it but they just self diagnosed themselves. And it makes it hard for me to be taken seriously as truly mentally ill. I do think some people are just faking it.

I'm addicted to food too. Try as I might, I find I can't resist eating at least once per day. Although I have managed to not eat salty, sugary and fatty food. I manage to keep my weight below 190 lbs. I must be thin privileged.

Thin privilege is saying, "No, thank you," to cake.

Femayos always have stupid excuses about “resisting beauty standards” like yeah you’re a real anarchist there eating an entire pizza.

Right? And that shit pisses me off anyways because sorry, you don't get to decide what someone else can or can't find attractive. I'm also sick of the notion that fat people are better cuddlers. I'm thin and toned. My fiance is lean and muscular. It's far more comforting to cuddle up to his muscles and I know he told me since I lost weight he loves how much closer he can pull me. So they can go fuck off.

Exactly. I have depression, some anxiety, some nerve damage, am deaf and I managed to have lost 130ish pounds in the past 4 years and kept it off.

Oh also did lose while pregnant and afterwards for BOTH babies. Take that fatasses and your shitty excuses!

Cable bill? NetFlix? I don't know how much those are these days, but that could be a gym membership instead. the gym I go to has free Wi-Fi and idiots boxes (TV) on every bike and treadmill.

absolutely! Actually one of the ways I motivate myself to do cardio is to plug in the headphones and watch something. It does help the time pass!

Maybe I'd watch something on the internet, but I listen to music. Sometimes music videos, though.
