People are so pathetically scared to say anything to anybody now. I know perfectly well that I am overweight but even my own doctor wouldn't say it. After he'd "ummed" and "aahhed" for about 5 minutes trying to find some other word I finally snapped and said "FAT! You mean I'm fat!" He was horrified and then started trying to tell me I shouldn't say that. About myself? God give me strength.
I completely agree with you.
I find it helpful when my doctor breaks down the complicated medical language around a condition I may have. If that involves using the word 'fat' I am not offended by it
The issue is a person cannot be "fat"... "Fat" is lipid tissue.
When a person has excessive lipid tissues that person is obese.
We have different words, with different meanings...for a reason.
Internal hidden fat makes more sense to me than Visceral Adipose Tissue
I was type 2 diabetic because basically I was Obese, I ate far too many calories a day and did no exercise, 5 years on I'm in remission and have lost 2 stone because i eat less and exercise! I also don't mind being reminded how fat I was... Keeps me in check!!
@@angelblue314 i think there is 14lb in 1 stone, thank you, luckily I have a fantastic personal trainer here in the UK who keeps me going.
See... Now that's the problem...
You were not "fat".
Your body had stored too much fat. A person who's body has too much lipid tissue (fat) is considered to be obese.
Obese doesn't mean fat and fat doesn't mean obese...
The problem is too many seemingly intelligent people have been using these words as synonyms.
@@Anon-xd3cfIdk why you insist on pretending that “fat” cannot be used as an adjective. You’re coming like one of those people who would saying something asinine like “a situation isn’t a physical object so it cannot be sticky.” Like just stop it; you’re embarrassing yourself.
That’s amazing, well done 😊
@@Anon-xd3cf I'm fat because my BMI is 31.
What's your BMI?
Obese is not an insult. We have to give terms to define things, otherwise we might as well ban verbal communication altogether. If you don’t like the term then change you, don’t ask to change how we view you
For a medical professional to say it to the patient, it's absolutely right to say it.
What about self responsibility!!
I hear Phillip Schofield’s brother has disowned him!😂
If someone was anorexic we would have no problem calling them that, so whats the issue with calling someone obese?
Obese is obese people need to stop being overly sensitive … it’s a medical term
It's not wrong to tell the truth. It's not wrong to call truly who you are
It doesn't even need to go that deep, it's a medical term, plain and simple. I'm just waiting for cancer to become an offensive word
@@anobody7467 People are being too much snowflakes these days
Some of the crap sold in supermarkets which is probably 80% of what they sell should be forbidden or heavily taxed. It’s not food, it’s poison.
you can't call people fat just "big" people don't die they "pass" and many other phrases where people want to say something but can't or won't speak plainly. what are people scared of?
I used to go to Rosemary Conleys weight loss classes. They closed down some years ago. I did well and kept the weight off and she had a scale that weighed your skeleton; fat, fluids, muscle. My skeleton wieghs 5 Ib 2oz. So no such thing as heavy bones and has to carry your weight whatever that is. Woke me up for sure.
If someone’s obese I’ll say they’re obese
Use common sense... Should we stop using the word "bald"?... probably not.. Does that mean that you should walk up to bald strangers and/or acquaintances and address them as "bald guy"? No...
I want my Doctor to be as clear as possible.
A good doctor will understand that you have a chronically dysregulated appetite.
So where were all the fat genetics before supermarkets and fast food chains lol
absolutely. i'm an old boy and i think i only remember one fat person in the sixties and seventies and no fat kids at all. since then we've had the explosion of ready meals, snack "foods" a huge multitude of takeaway and fast food outlets, sugary drinks plus the addition of sugar (primarily corn syrup - thank you usa) to loads of different foods.
the only way to go is to eat normal food, normal foods, snack rarely, don't drink sugary drinks or fruit juices
It is not offensive to call someone obese
it's down to what people are choosing to eat and how much they want to exercise, it's really that easy
It does not help the situation when you have the poorest people in this country, having to eat unhealthy and processed foods, as they cannot afford a healthy diet!!!!!!! POVERTY CANNOT BE IGNORED WHEN DISCUSSING WEIGHT AND HEALTH
I would say 'Fat' would be offensive, but obese is a medical term. I never hear this debate for the side of 'skinny' and 'anorexic'???
wouldn’t say it’s offensive it’s just blunt
to not see your own ability to take control of your life will be these peoples end, and im not sitting around waiting for it while paying for it
Drinking a cup of water 30mins before a meal, helps you feel less hungry resulting in you eating slightly less
doing time restricted fasting for 6 months.i lost 16 kg.93>>>>>77.i used to eat food twice in 24 hours,now it is only once for 36 hours.😊
Good morning 🌅🌄🌞🌄 everyone
No , no it's not
I think its better to call people obese than say they are fat call it what it is everything seems to offend these days
One thing that they say is its ok to shame people if they're obese to lose weight. Well, I believe thats one of the problems, because I've seem people on social media who are becoming fat as BBWs and they say they used to be slim and gained weight but wanted to slim down, and because people were shaming them they decided instead to shame them by becoming fat models, and some are even becoming like 600 pounds, or more close to 45 stone models! 😮 I don't think we should shame people!
How can people be offended by something they literally are?! I used to be called skinny all the time and was never offended by it. Its just describing you, your state, your body. Its just words to describe something or someone... seriously, get a grip.
We need to stop putting feeling over facts
No, it's not wrong. It's wrong let PEOPLE be fat
TBF we need fatties because when the world ends we can use them as bait. We’ve all seen Zombieland.
What has this country come to. Maybe a little bit of self loathing would help people lose weight. We need to stop glorifying failure in any sense. If your genetics mean you have to eat less and exercise more than someone else, that's not a disability, that's life. I'm not as intelligent as my mate so I have to study 2x as much as he does, doesn't make me a victim with no options to compete and better myself...Good lord
I think statistics show that self-loathing does the OPPOSITE to what you're saying.
I mean, it's all very good to tell people to suck it up and eat less and differently if you want to lose weight and essentially not be ugly in my eyes.
Because let's face it. Fat people are treated like that. They're treated like eyesores.
Think about WHY these self-loathing people might turn to food rather than turn to someone like you. Well, food doesn't judge them. Food makes them feel better. It doesn't determine your value based on how attractive you are to strangers.
The brain isn't wired to GET A GRIP. The brain is naturally wired to protect ourselves and seek comfort.
Think about that. Every time you shame someone for being fat or overweight, you're just pushing them towards food more.
Obviously some people do react differently. But generally people do not just stop something because they're shamed for it. It makes them turn to it more except usually in secret.
@JustAnotherPerson nobody talks about shaming people but you've got to call a spade a spade. If you're fat, you're fat. You're not "weight challenged". I don't understand why people have to moderate the way they speak because someone doesn't look after themselves. And that goes for everything. So be fat if you want to be fat but don't bring your political correctness to me. You know what causes damage to fat people? Slapping other fat people on covers of magazines and celebrating their unhealthy lifestyle because "you've got to love yourself, you are what you are" and all that other malarkey. And maybe the brain isn't wired to "get a grip" and that's why there's a top 1% in everything bring hated by the remaining 99% that can't hack it. And that goes for money, fitness, travelling, everything...
Eat slower(work out a strategy) drink plenty of water, walk or exercise to relieve stress, get proper rest. The first two are critical due to the science behind them.
Fat is fat if you are fat or obese lose weight I should know my kick up the bum was a stroke I've lost a load of weight and I am exercising and watching what I eat
You will gain it all back if you don't treat the underlying chronic dysregulated appetite.
Yes of course
No
Sorry overweight is different from being obese overweight is when BMI is more than 27 and obese is more than 30 medically spoken
It's hurting and inhuman, We have no right
If someone is obese, it’s perfectly ok to call them obese. If they don’t like it, they can do something about it.
No they can't. Not without medication to treat the dysregulated appetite.
Peaple need to make better choices with food and excersize more
2023 and people still can’t take responsibility for their own weight, despite the amount of gyms we have, we have the net for tips, yet people choose to ignore all solutions and complain instead, and cry saying it’s an illness, maybe but that don’t mean people can’t try it’s down to yourself. Eat properly and exercise. People in uk hate exercise for some reason 😂
Some people can’t exercise - due to disability, both physical and mental. It’s 2023 and it’s high time people understood that.
I don't think people need to be shamed for being any weight or size. I think there should be more self love and practical help for people who struggle. I think it's more harmful to shame people because when someone feels bad it makes them turn to food or other comforts etc... I think there should also be more healthy options that are not so expressive then people would have more choices. I personally don't think a jab is the answer it's more people need some plans to help with eating healthy and the cost of that, do more feel good things like exercise, crafts etc...also look at the underlining course of someone struggling weather it be medication causing weight problems, genetic or emotional.
Yes it is wrong because we don't go around classifying smaller people as skinny.
chronic appetite dysregulation. if I say that to common people will they understand?
Try it.
What’s wrong with knowing your fat , for goodness sake , if all this avoiding truth results in people damaging their health by allowing them to live in denial is madness .
You're. You are.
@@billyhw5492 what ?
No, it's not wrong
How is this even a question?
Making anorexia a goal is not healthy or wise either People become sedentary for varied reasons so minding others business at the first sight of anybody chubby is not intelligent
it is what it is, if people are fat then they are fat.
my bmi is says I am obese I am not offended
Obese is a kind way to put it. Would they rather be called fat?
Maybe they just want to be called people.
The world keeps getting weirder by the day ...
Nope
Well say food no cooking ready meal
The issue is a person cannot be "fat"... "Fat" is lipid tissue.
When a person has excessive lipid tissues that person is obese.
We have different words, with different meanings...for a reason.
Lipid tissue is literally another word for “FAT GLOBULES” 😂 a person can absolutely be fat. And it has nothing to do with genetics it has everything to do with the food you shovel in your mouth everyday.
No it’s called the truth. No excuse for being lazy and useless!
Yeah we shouldnt call them obese, we should call them fat
exercise should do the trick
I was describing someone once and included that they were overweight and got chastised! I was being honest and told them its not my fault they're fat
Y esas personas que te criticaron, se hacen llamar "open minded"
@jonathancarbajal5242 if you can't reply in English then please don't, I have no idea what you said. It could be rude or in agreement.....
It's not their fault either.
@billyhw5492 then who's is it?
@@colettegibson6516 Ancel Keys mostly.
This doc gets on my nerves
If the drug causes food to move more slowly through the digestive system...and the food is made from artificial ingredients... What are the potential dangers of having the gut and intestines exposed to these substances for longer than the body's own naturL process would allow for?
Surely that is where the pain comes from?
If you are constipated... You "feel full" and are unlikely to feel particularly hungry.
As for appetite suppression... Thats a different story. If one is addicted to highly processed foods with rapidly absorbable refined sugars...then appetite suppressants might help beat that addiction... But for emotional disorders which result in excessive eating (even of healthy foods)... Appetite suppressants might do more harm than good.
Really what needs research is a drug which resets the brains addiction pathways...
There are some candidates already...
Ibogaine for example.

Katie, you're not looking too well, so thin about your face. I hope you're okay
It is acceptable to end with a x if it is acceptable to kiss the person that is it !
Little Britain fat camp
People used to do hard manual work not so much now all machines to do lt so you dont burn the calories off
Plenty of skinny people who sit in front of desks all day. But their appetite control systems work to lower appetite as calories expended lower. In people with the disease of obesity, these processes aren't working correctly and need to be treated.
Definitely in the genes lots of skinny people eat and drink what they like .
Kate doesnt look well
This show is rubbish since Piers left. If you’re obese eat less and count your calories to lose weight and move your fat arse. I am overweight and just obese because I eat too much and don’t do enough exercise. I have now started to lose weight for health reasons and I need to take action. The best way is to limit to about 1200 cal per day to loose 2lb (1kg almost) per week. I am surprised this doctor is not giving this fact.
move your fat arse?
You eat too much because you have a dysregulated appetite. You can lose weight temporarily with diet and exercise, but if you don't treat the underlying dysregulated appetite, you will gain all the weight back over the long term. It's not your fault. Everything you have been taught about obesity all your life has been incorrect.
Not if they are. Its the right term.
