This is my least favourite type of fat. I'm not talking about this one in particular, I'm talking about the type, specifically, the "desperate to lose weight" type. My issue is with that word "desperate." I hear it a lot from fatties that they "will do anything to lose weight," that they "can't take it any more," that they are "at rock bottom," and that they are at the point where they are in tears regularly because their weight affects every part of their lives. My point is that if something is this bad, it needs to be a priority to correct it. What seems to happen with almost every single one of them, however, is they make some token gesture like adding a salad to a meal or start following some bad advice they heard second or third hand from Facebook. When posed with suggestions like "eat less" and "exercise more," suddenly it's too hard to do some reading into nutrition, to exercise until genuinely tired, or to simply consume even just a bit less food.  I've heard the excuse, "oh, I don't have time to learn about nutrition because I'm busy with work" or whatever, but this is my point right here: when one's weight is this much of a big deal, we are at the point where work needs to be sacrificed to do some learning. Some tough calls need to be made because the "priority" part means it is the priority.  Furthermore, I am very well read in nutrition and I am aware that there is a lot of information and misinformation out there on the subject. Despite this, though, anyone could get the essentials down with just 2-4 hours, tops, on Google. Anyone who can't find that sort of time over a week or two is a liar. Stay up late, get up early, outsource some chores to a friend, get behind in something else. Again, the priority is losing weight because you are apparently "desperate." If a person is as "desperate" as they claim, they will succeed. If they don't succeed, they aren't desperate. Saying things like "will do anything to lose weight" and then failing to do anything of substance for an extended period or at all shows that they actually just want someone else to take their problems away. It is for this reason that I have absolutely no respect for fats.
