Was Bill Maher fat shaming or just telling the truth? Are fat people responsible for being fat? Or is it something they can't help being? Is it too difficult for them to lose weight or do they avoid losing weight because of too many excuses for not doing so?
Is it really all that difficult to lose weight? It would seem to be a fairly easy thing to do, if you really want to do it. But maybe not. Perhaps it is almost impossible to do despite the fact that many people have done it.
Bill Maher has a history of taking on this subject and telling what appears to be the unvarnished truth about it. Of course some people really don't like hearing the truth.
Re: Was Bill Maher fat shaming or just telling the truth? And exactly whose business is it to tell people being fat is bad, or that they should eat less if they want to be thinner? I like fat people a lot better than I like nosy and presumptuous people. Bill Maher is a jerk.
Re: Was Bill Maher fat shaming or just telling the truth? Sometimes people are overweight because of other reasons. Most reasons make it possible to still lose weight unless it is from a disease or medication. For decades persons have known fat shaming doesn't work to make people lose weight, it's just mean and painful, honest, honest like Trump if you like it, no different really.
Re: Was Bill Maher fat shaming or just telling the truth? can you specify ONE disease which makes you fat (in the absence of food)?
To the best of my knowledge not a single one of those liberated from Nazi concentration camps was over weight - did the Nazis select for people who didnt have one of these diseases that make you fat?
I am an avid watcher of "My 600 pound life" not a single one of Dr Nowzaradan's patients didnt lose weight once they stopped over eating NOT ONE!
Again does he screen out those suffering from diseases that make you miraculously gain weight?

Re: Was Bill Maher fat shaming or just telling the truth? Diabetes, hypothyroidism, Cushing's disease, Addison's disease, other related hormone diseases, typically those with autoimmune diseases to name a few. My grand daughter got hooked on that show for awhile, awful isn't it. It seems what I saw was other issues, that drive people to get to that point, severe depression, stress, insomnia and someone in the home that fed their habit and lifestyle, which to me was really gross. More than one "ill" person in the household. He gets the overeaters because other folks are medically treated already before they got to 600 lbs., those 600lb people already know it's over eating and most people are overweight from food.
