It could be they simply don't want to live forty or fifty years in despondent and lonely misery. Searching for some 'thing' they can still identify with and living each long day hoping for someone to give them a moments companionship aside from a paid caregiver (if they're lucky) who they know wouldn't even be there otherwise. I wish I had more time so I could do even less. |

As a matter of fact, yo-yo dieters suffer much more inflammation and therefore more heart disease. I've been about 20lbs overweight since my late 20's. (I'm 43 now) Everything is good regarding blood sugar, cardio, etc.. If I did try and rid myself of this little bit extra, I'd probably get lipo. Loosing weight via diet only means your fat cells purge themselves of excess water. The cells are still they, they are just smaller and they will always be screaming out for bad chemicals to cause them to swell up again. So, killing the fat cells is the only real way to improve health in the long term. |

Fat people don't want to live. It's their way of committing slow suicide. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54929071 thank you YES, spot on! There is a documentary where a fitness guru, intentionally gains like 40 lbs. The rest of the documentary is of him explaining how incredibly difficult it was for him even get off the couch. A bigger issue is the fact that the sorry ass baby boomers who let their kids run wild, never taught their children about nutrition. |

I was a big distance runner in my 20s and 30s. I started swimming last year and left MMA for recreational jiu-jitsu clubs. My weight has stabilized and I'm in better health than I was in my mid 30s when I was training 15 hours a week. I got into distance running at the recommendation of a quack doctor who was a bigger runner. We now know distance running is as bad for you as smoking while swimming increases your lifespan. [link to www.pponline.co.uk] About 1 in 50,000: if you run marathons or participate in other forms of exercise which last for three hours or more, that's your approximate risk of suffering an acute heart attack or sudden cardiac death during - or within 24 hours of - your effort. For every 50,000 athletes, one will be stricken during such prolonged activity(1). Running a marathon or cycling intensely for three hours is riskier than taking a commercial airline flight, even in these troubled times! |
