Fats out of high school Short rant. So, I graduated high school 3 years ago. There were a fair amount of small fats, a few obese (like BMI 30-40), and one or two morbidly obese students who were in special ed. I started grade 9 normal, was chubby when I graduated, and after my first semester at uni and the freshman 15-20, I got my shit together and learned how to eat right, lost all the weight in a few months, and started lifting. Anyways. Point is, lately I've been seeing photos on social media of people I graduated with, or a year or two ahead/behind of me, and holy shit, so many people let themselves go so fast! It seems to be mostly guys who were fit and played sports in high school, and now either a) are smallfats with a beer gut or b) still go to the gym sometimes but have gained a shit ton of fat. For the most part, the girls who were thin/popular still are in shape, but if FPH tells me anything, it's a matter of time for many of them. A lot of the girls who were upper end of normal BMI in high school are now definitely overweight or obese. The worst are the couples who are still dating a few years later, and the girl has gained noticeable weight and the guy has either stayed fit, or gotten fat as well. I'm at a canadian university now, and there are more fats around than I would like to see. There are people I started uni with 3 years ago who have gotten fat since then. It's the worst since I'm in summer school right now. The fatties walk around dressed like humans, in jean shorts and crop tops, assaulting everyone with their pale cottage cheese rolls and hanging bellies. Luckily, I get eye bleach since there are plenty of hot fit guys around campus, and especially at the gym. ;) Living away from home, it was so easy to learn how to prepare and eat proper portions of good food. Why do people ruin their dating prospects, comfort levels, and all around chances at life by getting fat and/or staying that way?
