Apparently there's more to being fat then just needing bigger pants

Remember stoners, your munchies might catch up to you one day.

 

thats why michael moore is such a dumbass

 

^^^ As well as Rush Limbaugh and Oprah Winfrey.Of course thier viewers must be obese too.lol

 

Let the genocide begin!

 

Well i'm glad im shedding the poundage.. as of today(2months now).. i have lost 25lbs

 

Good job man! save your brain while you can

 

Thanks alot.... but I'm pretty sure there are other past events that have caused more brain damage than my weight

 

maybe it has to do with reduced blood flow to the brain as a result of the extra body mass.

 

that's my guess.. lower blood flow lowers the amount of oxygen going to the brain.. but also most obese people end up with some sort of breathing condition too.. which also lowers oxygen going to the brain.. also lack of proper nutrients that help protect and build brain tissue

 

Well, I wouldn't say thats any worse than heart disease.

 

I would, the heart is just what pumps fuel around the body(metaphorically) The body as a whole is just a vehicle for the brain, it's our brain we live in

 

The lunatic is already in my head so what does it matter

 

I wonder if there's a connection between the brain degeneration and the lack of motivation in some obese people. The ones who know their health is failing but still continue to live in the same manner they have been? It would make sense.

 

Good work man! I recently helped my brain too I guess.

 

Thats what I'm thinking. Obese people (in general not a fact or standard of any type) tend to be less active than healthy people. I wonder if its just from leading a slower less active life and not using your brain as much, or if it is from the brain having to work overtime to keep your body running with more material than an average brain would have to oversee.

 

I must be teh smarts cause I have zero body fat..

 

i don't think it works like that.

 

the least amount of body fat a living body can have is 3%

 

they should have fat injections like they have liposuction..

 

it's called McDonald's.. also goes by Burger King and Hardee's... also known as fat injections
