Account Deleted By User So I was scrolling through facebook, and came upon a picture of the daughters of a woman I know (friend of my best friend, semi friend to me). This friend-of-friend and her husband are both obese (like, had to make everyone get up and switch places at a dinner cuz their stomachs couldn’t fit in the booth obese), and their two daughters are quickly following in their footsteps, one in particular. The older daughter is 12 or 13 and has to be well over 200lbs. Supposedly she’s been to the doctor for all kinds of weird GI issues, and they claim they eat well and only that one kid gains weight so it must be a weird fluke of her body (nope).  Well after looking at that I said “Man they really need to get her weight under control. She’s going to have diabetes before she hits 15.” And my friend was like “they’re trying! Her body is weird!’ And I said “No, she eats too much.”  “But they cook healthy food!’  “They clearly do not. They all need to lose weight.”  “Also a big part of her issue is puberty. You know how in middle school all the girls are chubby cuz their hormones haven’t settled yet?”  “Nope. That’s not a thing.”  And it went in circles like that. We ended up agreeing to disagree, but I’m cranky about it because I always assumed she low-key hated on this family for abusing their child like I did. But instead she gave me every excuse in the book!  I’ve been a broken record lately telling people “all weight changes relate back to calories. ALL it is is calories in vs. calories out. Unique factors might make it harder for someone to reduce their caloric intake, but at the end of the day calories are all it is.” And we’ve had that conversation before but apparently she was just bullshitting me and doesn’t actually believe it! HOW DO YOU GET PEOPLE TO LISTEN TO FUCKING LOGIC???
