"I respect everyone's sexial preference, however over recent days I have seen a new but for me a worrying trend. This trend is for women to gain weight and we are not talking muscle mass here or post pregnancy weight we are taking about just over 60kg or 100lb in deliberate weight gain. As a pt and what I am doing for my degree this is worrying that alongside the growing use of waist trainers which Victorian research has shown can cause organ falliur and even death. 1st question I have is why are people putting their life at risk in this way. 2nd question is what do they gain from documenting their progress from healthy to morbidly obese? " Where are you seeing this currently? | |||
"And 3dly how prevalent is the trend to go aim to go from healthy to obese? " Are you talking on here or in general? | |||

"Mate, as a PT you shouldn't complain. Obese clients are also known as 'long term income'. Why people would want to be fat in general, I don't know. Not everyone wants to be nicely toned, most don't have the self discipline to get there even if they do want to. There's definitely a lack of education from an early age around nutrition but the fat parents can take a huge part of that responsibility." Some fat parents.... My sister is a fat parent but her children are like 2 streaks of piss, highly active and eat healthily. | |||

Much of the time, there’s a trigger, something bad happens and weight gain happens. Once that weight is on, it starts a circle of overeating and struggling to get it off. | |||

If they're sexualising or fetishising weight gain I think that's a problem too. | |||

"I'm still struggling to believe that these young girls go to a gym in the first place, and tell people they want to become seriously obese, to satisfy a man's sexual urges.

I go to the gym and work out but I struggle to stay motivated to do so, Not because I "enjoy being fat" simply because I'm not unhappy with my body the way it is, Did you ever think that might why people don't go to the gym and be strict with their eating? | |||
"I don't think there's a purposeful trend. I think people not just women in general are just getting fat. Bad food taste good, is addictive and is cheap. We're also bogged down with work and drive everywhere. Our meats, veg and fruits are of a poorer quality these days too with all the growth hormones and pesticides etc... Like we actually have to plan our lives to stay in shape where a few decades ago they were just in shape from living. " Gaining weight (fat) is definitely a trend. It's a leap though to say it's purposeful except for a very small minority. Obesity was not a goal for the overwhelming majority of obese people, it was a side effect. | |||
" Actually quite a few women wear waist trainers to the gym. I’ve seen a few at my gym. Lots of “instabloggers” wear trainers while training/exercising. Some people think bloggers of any sort are experts. It's frightening." Most of all they believe it themselves, so they sound more convincing | |||

"I respect everyone's sexial preference, however over recent days I have seen a new but for me a worrying trend. This trend is for women to gain weight and we are not talking muscle mass here or post pregnancy weight we are taking about just over 60kg or 100lb in deliberate weight gain. As a pt and what I am doing for my degree this is worrying that alongside the growing use of waist trainers which Victorian research has shown can cause organ falliur and even death. 1st question I have is why are people putting their life at risk in this way. 2nd question is what do they gain from documenting their progress from healthy to morbidly obese?

For the first thing no not on here although at Uni and on the internet I have came across healthy women with the desire to gain masses of weight of what is beyond healthy My real big thing is to try and understand what the motivation is.

I can understand the motives of steroid use, drugs, smoking etc. But this i find tragic and want to just understand why? " I read an article recently.. the ladies goal (which she achieved) was to become obese to the point of being bed bound. Her motivation was that she would feel like a queen if her partner had to cater to her every whim. Crazy to us, but the world is made up of all sorts! | |||
"Mate, as a PT you shouldn't complain. Obese clients are also known as 'long term income'. Why people would want to be fat in general, I don't know. Not everyone wants to be nicely toned, most don't have the self discipline to get there even if they do want to. There's definitely a lack of education from an early age around nutrition but the fat parents can take a huge part of that responsibility. Well aren't you delightful
I go to the gym and work out but I struggle to stay motivated to do so, Not because I "enjoy being fat" simply because I'm not unhappy with my body the way it is, Did you ever think that might why people don't go to the gym and be strict with their eating?"To be fair you are not obese. There are people who due to bad habits and enviormental issues grew up obese and this is proven to cause higher risk of health issues. They are not stupid or lazy. They have simply gotten onto a cycle of behaviour they find hard to break. For the record I am talking about people unhappy with their weight if you are happy woth yours then more power to you | |||

" 2nd the original op.said he understands steroid use etc but not this. It comes down to the same reasons. IE. How the person wants to see themselves. Sometimes it's just a personal choice. Both have there negative issues when it comes to health issues and doing anything to extremes is damaging to your health in the long run. Even the perfect toned body building exercising can be damaging. " Very good point. | |||

" As far as the gym community is concerned the bigger issue is surely steroid induced body building.

Some anabolic steroid use is extremely dangerous with increasing numbers of recorded tragedies including death being attributed. It is acknowledged as being a major problem which is sadly increasing. Building your body with steroids and then reducing your body fat to circa 7 or 8% is not looking after yourself. It is an unhealthy practice. | |||

From someone who has a degree in human nutrition and who is an ‘instablogger’/lover of anything that improves the worlds view on nutrition and the food we feed our bodies, steroid use is nowhere near as sad as women who allow themselves to be fed by men in order to feel ‘accepted’ Perhaps if these people had more access to education and information, they’d reconsider their choices in a bid to stay alive The issue with steroid use is the number of young males using. It’s coming from a place of anxiety and dysmorphia about how they think their body should look. There’s a record number of young males who are now depressed, impotent and showing classic mental health symptoms relating to how they look. I’d say that’s just as bad as women who allow themselves to be fed through a fetish, if not worse. This is far more of a cutural issue in relation to social media etc... than a steriod issue.. steriods are just one of the many tools people use to achieve what they believe sociaty wants It’s enough of a problem that steroids are the only drug that has had an increase in usage. It doesn’t matter where it stems from. However, that wasn’t my point. I was referring to the comment about people using steroids safely and that it’s nowhere near as sad as women piling weight on for a fetish. I think they’re both worrying trends, but I’d hasten to guess that the numbers of young males abusing steroids are much higher than women turning to feeders.
That's the point we tried to make, you've made it well.
The Op has chosen not to respond to this observation. " | |||
"Mate, as a PT you shouldn't complain. Obese clients are also known as 'long term income'. Why people would want to be fat in general, I don't know. Not everyone wants to be nicely toned, most don't have the self discipline to get there even if they do want to. There's definitely a lack of education from an early age around nutrition but the fat parents can take a huge part of that responsibility. Well aren't you delightful
I go to the gym and work out but I struggle to stay motivated to do so, Not because I "enjoy being fat" simply because I'm not unhappy with my body the way it is, Did you ever think that might why people don't go to the gym and be strict with their eating?
He wasn't referring to you, he was responding to the Op who was asking about people who specifically wanted to be very over weight.
No he wasnt otherwise he wouldn't have said "why would anyone want to be fat in general?"
He was clearly speaking about people who are overweight not just those mentioned in the original post
No. He couldn't have been clearer.
He said "why would anyone WANT to be fat in general?"
You changed the WANT to ARE and then seem to be taking offence at your own creation!
Ok xxx "PureSpice I appreciate your clarification and you are spot on. Thought I was pretty clear to be honest.  | |||

"What business is it of yours if people want to gain weight really anoys me all these do gooder saying u should or shouldnt do this its not healthy its bad for you same with these stup 100 calorie adverts every 5 mins 2 a day max fuck right off same with the anti smoking brigade half of them are former smokers leave us to our vices we are grown up enough to make our own decisions" That's an interesting point you raise. However an anti-fat campaigner may argue why should we pay the health fees or taxes of our nhs to someone who has clearly no care about there own health. Not my view just a known philosophic argument. | |||
" 1st question I have is why are people putting their life at risk in this way. 2nd question is what do they gain from documenting their progress from healthy to morbidly obese? As far as the gym community is concerned the bigger issue is surely steroid induced body building. It's the other end of the scale but an 7% bodyfat heavy steroid using body builder is probably less healthy than someone who is slightly in the obese category. Just look at the numbers of body builders who tragically die young, it's increasing. Society is programmed to revere one and condemn the other.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, I just would like to understand why you see it as sadder? From the outside looking in, its two groups of people putting their long-term health at risk for short-term acceptance of others. Probably because steroids build muscle and muscle is always better than being fat "Steroids do not build muscle | |||

Etc as there are many choices that people make that put their health at risk. Even in swinging IE bareback. | |||

How about minimum pricing on non-essential foods. Perhaps chocolates bars should always cost more than £3? | |||

The NHS spends the most on patients who suffer from lifestyle-related illnesses and diseases. These are poor diet, smoking and drinking. It’s not exclusive to obesity. | |||

Steroids do not build muscle"Really? Out of the whole thing that’s all you got? And they actually do help to build muscle. That’s why they’re used.
***Male hormones, principally testosterone, are partially responsible for the tremendous developmental changes that occur during puberty and adolescence. Male hormones have androgenic and anabolic effects. Androgenic effects are changes in primary and secondary sexual characteristics. These include enlargement of the penis and testes, voice changes, hair growth on the face, axilla, and genital areas, and increased aggressiveness. The anabolic effects of androgens include accelerated growth of muscle, bone, and red blood cells, and enhanced neural conduction.***

A simple google search would have helped you. "Laughable really is .. its went from steroids building muscle to helping hence my reply. Everything on Google is so true isn't it? If that's the case how come everyone who takes steroids are not walking about massive, with over sized muscles etc? Steroids to do not build muscle! Fact!. It's an enhancement, if anything it fills muscle with water,hence where the water baby thing comes from, and helps with recovery, muscles grow with hard training and putting the hard work in, and eating properly, I.e muscle growth happens through muscle fibres being torn and repairing through protein, carbs etc fact!. Penis and testes enlargement through steroids? If anything when taking testosterone the testes shrink through testicular atrophy, through high levels of it and the body not producing natural testosterone. Penis growth does not happen it's all a myth! Hair growth if anything causes hair loss and stop growing, hence why most people taking steroids have shaved heads etc, not everybody but a high percentage. A lot to do around steroids is all hear say, rumours and myths that people read on the internet. And that's first hand experience not Google! | |||
