Being fat is not good for you [mini rant] Is being a morbidly obese fuck healthy? That was a rhetorical question. What is a good question however is why does HAES exist. The level of delusion one would need to ignore all medical evidence and all physical evidence, to believe that being obese is somehow healthy is beyond me.  The amount of medical evidence out there can't fit within this short rant but, we can all agree diabetes is bad for you. specifically type 2 diabetes, its main complications are nerve damage {diabetic neuropathy} and small blood vessel damage. Which can further lead to complications with the eye {diabetic retinopathy} and kidneys {diabetic nephropathy}. nerve damage combine with poor circulation (small blood vessels) could result in slow healing wounds that the patient is not aware of, so uh ones foot can rot off.  But wait, type 2 diabetes has a genetics side to it as well, that predisposes you having it, I hear you say. Yes but there is also the environmental factor as well. If one drinks 1 M Cal of beetus with every meal then wonders why one 'can not lose weight' the reason is simple. You eat too much, in other words EAT LESS. If this does not work then congratulations you have just broken The first law of Thermodynamics and as such have just solved the worlds energy problems. Unless the laws of physics changes, try calorie counting. If you eat 2 M Cal per day you WILL NOT gain weight.  Obesity has a strong correlation to type 2 diabetes, as well as high blood pressure {hypertension} and high cholesterol or fats in the blood {dyslipidemia}. Evidence that being a fat fuck is bad for you. With the kidney failure, going blind, leg rotting off, heart attack and stroke.   Feel free to use any part of this rant. A study
