Seriously though, how DO we stop the obesity crisis?
>Inb4: personal responsibility
There is no world in which hundreds of millions of Americans collectively decide to stop stuffing their face even if it's true
>Inb4: deportation on non whites
We would still be dealing with an obesity rate of 40% and climbing which remains abhorrent.

Apart from sending every fitness "influencer" to the bottom of the ocean by tying an anchor around their neck and giving every fat person a personal trainer, we could start by re-educating Americans on the value of protein in the diet.
change authorities.
>Seriously though, how DO we stop the obesity crisis?
Kill the internet.
Basic nutrition classes at school, most people have no idea about calories. I
overtax shit that fat people consume and subsidize shit that lean people consume
Remove welfare.
All welfare.
The issue is fixed overnight. People will learn very fast to eat rice and water instead of chips and coke.
Eat the fatties
Restructure snap and ebt to only be eligible for produce/dairy/meat. Most people just abuse it by buying $150 of garbage and using the $150 they saved for pizza, shoes or other shit.
No. This anon is right
What we need is a mandatory device that can track your calories and you eat them it will then alert the user when they are over maintenance by say 200/300 calories. If they continue to go over it they will be charged per kcal if they continue to eat.
I’m bulking unfortunately
everything ranging from meme shit like structuring cities around walking and biking to a better food industry and government policy regarding toxic shit like pic related. People before had better-quality food and less amounts of it, they were also more physically active due to the entire way society worked. Now everything is designed around making you as comfortable as possible, never in history has anyone had to actively worry about being obese and take extreme measures like today so as to avoid it, something went wrong sometime in the last few decades
>pic
It's actually insane someone was specifically tasked with designing the most fattening slop possible. Like, it MUST be their goal.
>how DO we stop the obesity crisis?
Replace those in charge who want your people be fat with ones who don't. It's just a matter of political will.
It's good fitness food if you have the least amount of self control
I'd drink two a day during my uni spring break. Good protein source
Stay fat fatty
I know you're trolling because any human would drop dead after 2 straight days of chugging this shit twice in a row
Seriously though
2 a day for a month
1 million dollars
Would you do it, IST?
just a month? you'd have to atleast try.
yeah, i'd do it. i'd feel like shit doing it and would gain probably 20 pounds, but frick it, it'd get me out of waging for a while, and that's going to kill my soul anyways if the half gallon of milkshake a day doesn't kill my heart first
the only realistic way at this point is to get people on drugs that inhibit appetite and market the living shit out of them as miracle drugs. fat fricks have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they won't stop themselves
michelle obama tried but you Black folk threw a b***hfit about it.
>b-but the food was bad
changes could've been made instead of diving headfirst back into slop.
I apologize on behalf of America, Mrs. Obama
I'll whip these fatties into shape for ya
her husband was trash but I still feel bad for her, can't believe she got shit for trying to get people to eat healthy kek.
I remember that, country of morons.
America is a self destructive country
They'll all eat themselves to death in the name of "freedumb"
yep, and when the mayor of NYC tried to limit the size of sodas that were sold in convenience stores the pushback from food industry lobbying convinced people that it was "anti-freedom" and it was abandoned
Nothing.
It is too late.
Obese folk are now the majority. We are omnipresent. We have bought your government, your media, and soon we will breed your women.
Us fatties will soon become 90 percent of the population, bonebacks like you will be tossed into camps, worked to death, and used as sex slaves. Your bodies will then be used as meat for our burgers and steaks.
You can not stop this.
Resistance is futile.
We have won.
go mow the lawn boogie, you lazy c**t
>make lobbying illegal to stop food industries from influencing policy (among many other benefits)
>reinstate actual standards in schools
>make comprehensive nutritional and physical education absolutely mandatory
>make all real, whole foods tax-free and offer major tax deductions on their production and distribution
>make gym memberships, exercise equipment, and health supplements tax deductible
>ban HFCS, all sugary foods are now required to at least use actual sugar
>make it legally a form of child neglect to allow a child in your care to become obese, penalty of losing custody
>force all restaurants to make the full nutritional information of their menu accessible via QR codes in-restaurant and on their websites, both placed in plain view
>ban deceptive nutritional labels (like listing the serving size as half an individual serving package; nobody is eating half a packet of ramen)
>deprioritize bariatric patients for treatment for problems caused by being a fatass
>mandate warning labels akin to those on cigarettes for foods like sugary cereals and soda
>ban advertising such foods to children
>encourage active transportation by creating more and better protected footpaths and bike lanes
>encourage people to be outside by keeping parks and green spaces clean and beautiful
This would solve a lot more than just obesity tbh
>>make lobbying illegal
just this would fix america in 15 years max, never gonna happen though.
Anorexia max
A rowing machine in every home.
fat (added sugar) tax
Stop subsidizing corn
The only way I could support a universal healthcare is if the fats paid for what they use.
you already pay for them with your premiums, universal healthcare would reduce the costs across the board because the government single payer would have greater negotiating power to keep costs low. Medicare already does this. Whenever a hospital says "that 15 minute consultation with a doctor is $900" Medicare can just say "no, here's $150 though"
Tax reduction based on health status. Everyone will try to qualify
Japs are the thinnest 1st world country.
Iirc they all have cooking classes at school.
They also fat shame.
>they all have cooking classes at school.
America also have cooking classes in school; home ec.
But for some odd frickin reason, every adult and child wants to blame the school system instead of looking at their lazy moron children and realizing children would rather play than to study. Due to this, of course there is no more room for home ec classes. We spending too much time trying to make study/work into something fun instead of telling kids you need to work hard.
School is a waste of time in general, you homosexual
Parents just feed their kids too much shit because they themselves eat too much shit
just make obesity ilegal, kill fatties
War. A great and glorious and bloody war. None of the fat fricks would last long, and to be honest I doubt you would either
Nice try shlomo but you're on your own.
You know Im right. There is no other solution, only mass death of those unfit to survive can save humanity now
Where will you be during this great war?
The same place he is now; shitposting on IST
Don't worry, you WILL see me
You don't need to do anything, it's going to happen naturally. Food is extraordinarily, anomalously cheap right now. Our production of food is mega optimized. That means calories are very cheap to come by. This is the poor fat moron's primary form of entertainment.
In time, and we're seeing it right now, everything will get so overly expensive that it will no longer be easy to buy those chips or cakes or treats or whatever. People will be forced to slim down by way of exorbitant cost of food.
Really obesity was our icarus moment, the period where we truly solved the issue of "food" and made it perversely cheap for all here to the point that people ate for fun. That isn't going to last forever, the wheel is turning the other way now.
If you take away my Oreos I will resort to eating my fellow man
Hold those pushing unhealthy foods accountable for their actions.
take it leave you raging anti-semite
>how DO we stop the obesity crisis?
The same way all societal change happens these days: normalize being thin and athletic as a beauty standard, encourage people to prepare their own food from fresh ingredients with takeout a rare treat, and on the flip side mercilessly mock and ostracise the overweight, let along the obese. If something is unthinkable to the average npc drone, by logical extension it becomes undoable.
How do we achieve this? I'm tempted to say all-out thermonuclear warfare, but the fact that peaceful Asian nations can have thinness enshrined culturally suggests that all it needs is a critical mass of people to hold the same opinions, and this could be achieved through media propaganda, perhaps reinforced by the legal system (tax surcharges for the obese, workplace disincentives, obese children threatened with being taken into care, etc)
We could do it, if enough of us wanted.
