Serious question; how the fuck do people get fat?

[Anonymous No.17978057]

I'm out here struggling to eat 1500 calories a day. Despite all the bitching you hear, food is actually very low calorie; a double hamburger from McDonalds is a mere 380 calories. 12 piece nuggets from Popeyes is 570. Etc. I literally don't understand how many people are eating the cartoonishly large amounts of food that must be required to rapidly gain weight.

A lot of obese people love sugary sodas
Things like ice cream is easy to eat many calories of, milkshakes are the hollywood get fat quick scheme of choice.

Lots of easily eaten fat laden carbs.
Just way too big portions because they eat until they cant eat no more. Like their plates can look ridiculous with the towering portions.
Eating late at night, eating immediately in the morning because not having food in the stomach = opportunity to eat and feel good.

[Anonymous No.17978108]

>>17978057
Fructose, the thing that makes sugar sweet, is addicting (causes mild physical withdrawal eg shaking and headaches on cessation) and is metabolized not in the intestines like most food, but in the liver like a drug. Fructolysis causes your body to produce excess ghrelin, which is the hormone which causes you to be hungry. This is likely evolutionary, to motivate hunter-gatherer hominids to eat more vitamin-rich fruit. But sugar (not carb) consumption skyrocketed with the proliferation of refined sugar in the 20th century, and really took off with the invention of high-fructose corn syrup in the 70s. When sugar became cheap, most people became addicted, causing them to eat more food overall and become fat, as the hormonal signals which indicate fullness are blunted by the side effects of fructolysis.
When you calculate your calories relative to your fullness, count refined sugar as "negative fullness". That is, if you eat a cheeseburger and drink a coke, you'll end up less full than if you just ate the cheeseburger. This effect shows up more strongly as the dose increases, being generally enough to overcome TDEE calorie expenditure at 60g of fructose per day.

I got chubby as a teenager, it is because in your early teens with hormones etc going off you feel like eating more and usually it is the snack food. If I opened a bag of potatchips then I had to finish it and I would eat several in a week. I didn't exercise, I didn't have friends either cause I was bullied and luckily I only managed to get chub. When you're an older teenager, for women this is earlier than guys, you get to a point that eating this much actually does get you from chubby to fat a lot faster. And unless you get your shit together you're only going to get bigger as the years go by. I went full /fit/ when I was 26 or so, got my shit together dietwise and so on but lots of women my age look like they are end 30 cause of the weight. People just got used to eating a certain way since they were kids not realizing they should stop that when they're adult and most workingclass adults exercise regularly. This only got worse with the current gen kids.

I mean don't exercise. I think that has to do with it a lot also. A lot of young teenagers nowadays try to get fit cause they see insta models, but most of them let it slide when they become 18-20 and lose their shit from that point on. Same with guys but they know nothing about diet and counting carbs, they eat kebabs but also dinner with their families.

Ahh, so it's not that they're eating large amounts of calories, they're drinking them? I have like maybe one or two sodas a month max, and when I snack I have salty snacks instead of sugary. I guess that would makes sense then.

I'm skinny but I can easily eat an entire pot of Ben & Jerry's in one sitting, which is more than 1000 calories. An entire medium pizza is also generally more than 1000 calories. If you add soda on top of this and random sugary fatty snacks throughout the day, it's not surprising so many people become land whales.
Being skinny is easy though if you know how. Literally eat oatmeal, potatoes, eggs, and lots of fibre-rich veggies and you will find it impossible not to lose weight.

I've never been a big soda drinker, but I've been a fat fuck since I was a small child. I love carbs though.

Current diet:
8am: coffee w/ milk + toast / homemade muffin / danish
12pm: frozen pre-cooked meal (300~400 kcal)
2pm: coffee/tea w/ milk + snacks (cheese and pickles, cookies, chips, etc.)
6pm: leftover home cooked meal of 1/3 meat + veg + carb. (i.e. chicken, tossed greens, roast potatoes)
8pm: dessert - cookies, icecream, candy, etc.

As a former fatass: Lifestyle, often snacks, and habit.
Lifestyle is a big one. Spend your entire day sedentary and your TDEE goes down real fast. Especially if you don't have that many muscles, which a lot of lards don't have. I have the excuse of being disabled, so my TDEE is reall low, but I am confident that I could have gotten fat without that condition too, depending on circumstances. My TDEE was around 1500 kcals, while for normal people its much higher.
Snacks are a big one. Eat a 300g bag of tortillas, that's like 1.4k kcals just there. Add a bag of cookies and you have between 720 and 1k kcals. There's 2k kcals just in snacks. You will feel like shit, but a lot of fat people feel like they deserve that feeling.
Then for main dishes, you have three main rules: Carbs, because while carbs are low in kcals, they are not filling at all and will make you overeat easier than anything else, so you want to eat pasta, pizza and fries. Secondly add a high kcal density sauce, preferably something with cheese or cream. Then add msg and salts, which make it easier to overeat. Eat quickly, so by the time your brain signals that you are full as fuck, you are already done with the dish.
Lastly for habit: Eat big portions. Your feeling for what a portion is is very off reality, usually x2-x3 the normal size. Eat at inconsistent times and in a hurry.
For a bonus, drink your calories. 1l of cola is 420 kcals, basically for free. Plus it will raise your blood sugar, making you hungry quicker. A glass (0.3l) of whole milk is 180 kcals, add chocolate powder to add calories and make it less filling.
And of course dessert. A milkshake can be made to reach the 1k kcals for a glass without much effort and without being very filling to the average lard.
Another secret is peanut butter, even the natural kind. Tastes great and isn't unhealthy, but eat 200g (which is very doable) and you have another 1.2k kcals down.

God I am glad I left that shitty lifestyle behind.

TDEE is not exercise, it stands for total daily energy expenditure and consists of all your calories burned as a total, and is thus bigger than your BMR (basal metabolic rate), which is included in the TDEE.

When free fatty acids in the blood get high enough your kidneys start to filter them out and you literally piss calories. Did you know that the presence of insulin prevents your body from accessing its stored fat, and that insulin resistance can cause your body to almost always have insulin present?

It isn't assumed, it is estimated. TDEE is very real, even if accurately measuring it is hard.

300 pound obese NEET here, you don't get fat just from eating regular food, it's the sugary junk food that does you in. Two shitty snack cakes is something like 330 calories, they give you a pack of Oreos but expect you to only eat 3 to get the "proper" serving size. I usually end up eating the whole pack of Oreos if I get my mitts on them, that's something like 2400 calories in absolute garbage. I think most fat people (like me!) tend to eat not according to serving size, but package/container size. I don't like how easily I can devour junk food, it's like crack.

now im trying to take it back off but im just not satiated by the same amount of food. im living in japan right now too so there's too much temptation. i'll wake up and eat melonpan from the convenience store, then for lunch i'll have a yakisoba dog, then after school i'll get a big bowl of ramen, then at home i'll get a dominos pizza thst night. that's the typical routine and im probably eating 2500cal/day

if i don't get the pizza or a late night snack though i feel starving

They give in to every craving and temptation to eat, no self control and they have excuses for it.

Either that, or they just don't care.

Are you really so fucking stupid? Zoomies gonna zoom, I guess.
You think fat people are fat because of what they eat at meals?
Fat people are fat because of overconsuming sugar and constant snacking.
It isn’t the meals that make them fat. It’s the 10 junkfood items they get from vending machines or their pantry between meals that makes them fat.

People aren’t just eating one item when they go to these places. A quarter pounder is 417 calories, a large fries is 480 calories and a large chocolate milkshake is 468. Together that’s a lot of calories for one meal and obese people are eating multiple fries, multiple burgers, chicken nuggets on the side etc.

Anyway, it’s not even like fast food is the sole reason, it’s mostly portion control that causes people to put on weight and snacking throughout the day, like a serving of pasta should be some tiny amount like 2 ounces, but people pile their plates up to the brim and then they’re adding sugary sauces on top, drinking soda and then having dessert afterwards as well. It’s a combination of things.

Pretty sure it's just constant consumption. Sodas and snacks all the time, no concept of how many calories are in all the shit they're constantly gobbling down

THere are 3 types of fats
>Got fat by eating a ton of food, unlike the other fats this one takes conscious effort to achieve because you must continue overeating after you already physically feel sick to get fat this way. This usually falls into the evil fat archetype
>Got fat by drinking a ton of soda, this one is basically just a vice that develops absentmindedly, people who care usually can break it pretty easily. These usually become the funny fat archetype
>Got fat from alcohol. This one is a wild card. If it happened over the age of 40 it's probably just a normal person who had a roughish life, younger than that it's just alcoholism. These usually fall into the sexy fat archetype

Practice makes perfect. My parents fed me way, way, way too much food and told me I would die if I didn't get enough in. Sounds stupid I know, but I was a fucking kid, you believe the shit your parents tell you. It took a long time to fix myself and the way I eat. Fuck my parents were useless. Mum was right about the Jews though

People are dumb and lazy, just like your fucking post. The fact you think McDonalds is solely responsible for fat people is laughable.

I mean you're right, it's fucking easy to stay within your calories if you count them, but people in general don't count calories and are ignorant to what they're eating. They slowly put on weight over the years and then they do fad diets to try and lose weight, cheat or don't stick to them for the appropriate length of time and then end up quitting and going back to their previous ways of eating, usually binging on all the things they cut out in their stupid diets.

I mean it's easy to put on weight if you just consume whatever you feel like, you don't have to go to McDonalds and gorge yourself, you just eat regular food but have no concept of calories and no portion control. A massive plateful of spaghetti can easily be over 1000 calories for instance, add in sugary sauces, cheese, bread, snacks, soda, takeaways, etc. It's easy to put on weight over years.

And again, it's not like fat people don't try and lose weight. I guarantee that anyone whos fat or obese has attempted to lose weight a multitude of times, but the problem is that lets say it's taken them 5 years to become obese, then it's probably going to take them a similar amount of time if not longer to lose the weight unless they do extreme diets and exercise programs, which most people won't do. They instead will try and diet, usually some fad that isn't calorie counting, and then they'll expect instant results and when a month or two months have passed and they haven't lost all their weight and have only lost a few pounds, they lose motivation, get upset and eat more food and they get into these cycles of doing this to their body. Which btw also fucks up their metabolisms in the process. So yeah, it becomes a situation where people get trapped in these situations and then they lack the willpower and dedication to actually get themselves out of it.

People over eat in the way others do drugs. Eating things that taste good makes you feel good briefly and you get accustomed to the feeling of being full. If you're not full, not eating something that tastes good, you get cranky, and it becomes a cycle

Morbidly obese anon here, I'm having the time of my life. Even if I was skinny I'd never have a girlfriend anyway so I might as well enjoy eating. There's no reason for me to live a long life since I'm a NEET living on borrowed time until my parents die anyway.

id rather be obese than an opium addict honestly
preferably you'd be both, or neither

anyway the more you eat the more volume you can tolerate
pro eaters do volume training with low cal vegetables
i notice when it's cutting season where i very little and i try to down more volume, it's pretty hard
ie it goes both ways (for me anyway), the more you eat, the more you can handle and the more you want
a slippery slope

it's all because of fucking soda, sweet tea, and the diabetes in a cup millenials call coffee.
people will go on exotic food diets of all sorts but will keep chugging their flavored corn syrup like it's water, then blame genetics when they inevitably fail to lose weight.
guarantee the obesity """epidemic""" would disappear within a decade if the FDA were to set very strict limits on the amount of sugar allowed in drinks.

The difference between eating enough to maintain weight and putting on weight doesn't have to be huge. If you're a lazy fuck who uses food as entertainment then it's easy to gain.

My brother is in a constant battle to lose weight, if I spend the day with him he's constantly chewing on something but if I say something about it suddenly it's 'not an average day', they don't even realise they're binging half the time.

Currently losing weight again. Plan is to lose 40-50. Any time I have a traumatic life event, I eat until I don't feel sad anymore and even losing so much weight so many times, the only thing I've gotten better at is not going above certain limits. I have never been 250 more than once.
