Sometime the Truth Hurts
There is no denying it...
We are a fat nation.
We are a sick nation
We are a depressed nation
And we are doing to ourselves.
I have been accused of Body Shaming because I used the term "Dad Bod" in an advertisement.
"Everyone is beautiful in their own way" was the argument...
The thing is... You're not beautiful if you're dead!
I Agree, all People are beautiful in their own way
However there is no escaping the fact that if you are over fat...
You have a much higher chance of being subject to a terrible fate that could be avoided through proper nutrition and physical activity
_____
Type 2 Diabetes.
Heart Disease.
Depression
Hypertension
Stroke
Some types of Cancer
_____
This is just a few of the nasties that - unfortunately - are the reality for the MAJORITY of the world population...
There's nothing admirable about glorifying completely avoidable medical conditions
"DAD BOD" is a shit term
A copout that is used by those who are scared that they will fail
are too proud to admit they need help
or ultimately... value dying over living.
If that's you...
and you're sick of it...
