Hepner ENG 1300-01 October 14th, 2010 beingness Fat a Big Issue Being avoirdupois is whizz of the biggest issues lately. Our golf-club has created a stereotype of how heap should appearance and it is non exactly a fat boy/girl. People who be fat have suffered every day for how they look and many clock our orderliness ignores fat lots views.Obese the great unwashed have been pathetic depression and discrimination for being fat, even though somemagazines it is a disease or compulsive consume (eating disorder) that sheds them fat, at that place be a akinwise some irresponsible cases of eating un healthily and it not working out. Obese concourse today tend to be discriminated for being fat in our high society. heavy(p) state are not different to us they are people like you and me, for that reason we should not judge them. T hey are part of our society and they deserve respect and understanding. Ms.Claudia Gomez said, It is hard for us when I take the mess and everybody looking us like if we are different or if we are funny, they dont bang how painful it is. In addition, there are some studies to show that depression can be responsible for sonorous especially in women ( labored and Depression). Moreover, some grievous people have eating disorder like compulsive overeating. Compulsive overeating is an addiction to forage in big quantities. People wo(e) compulsive overeating employ to eat to hide their emotions, to avoid what they have inside or their vitality problems.As Susie Orbach said in her essay, Fat as a Feminist Issue, Women suffering from the problem of compulsive eating endure double anguish feeling out of step with the rest of society, and believing that it is all their own geological daub. (201) Overweight people have a disease which means people having extra body weight from musc le, bone and fat (What are Overweight and Obesity). There are some options to lose weight such as surgery, diets by a nutritionist, exercise and some medicines. According to Medline Plus one of the joint options for very obese people is the Gastric by come close to Surgery.After this surgery the patients will not be capable of eating like they ate before. This is an alternative to lose weight faster but overly the patients have to follow a diet and do exercise (Gastric beltway Surgery). Furthermore, obese people have not been practicing healthy habits. The most common pathological habits among overweight people are they do not do exercise, they eat too frequently, usually eat more than one time at the same meal, they stay away from lightest activities (like use the stairs or walk a little), and they eat when they are not truly empty-bellied (Frisch).Likewise, overweight people might be more responsible. Everybody knows what we can do or what we cant. If I know that Im gaining weight, I alike know that I have to take care of what I eat and do exercise. But many obese people know that they are fat and they still eat unhealthy food and in any case they do not do exercise. I think this is happening because we like to blame the circumstances (depression, divorce, childhood, etc). But at the same time they also know that being overweight may not be their fault but they are responsible to remain so, because what we do is our superior.Even though there are many advertisements that encourage us to eat unhealthy, nobody is forcing us to eat that food. Also you are the only one who can make the simple decision of taking the elevator or go up stairs. Being obese or overweight is an irresponsible act that makes people sick and this affects everybody because this is a public health problem that should not be. In his essay, What You Eat Is Your Business, Radley Balko maintains that, the best way to alleviate the obesity public health crisis is to remove obesity fro m the realm of public health (157). As he said, here some people would probably say that people should be responsible with their own health because we are the only ones who make the choice of living healthy or not. On the other hand, some fat people are proud of how they are. Mr. Alvarado who is weighting around 310 pounds describes himself as a big man and he said, I dont feel knotty because Im fat, I am happy how I am, a big man. Im comfortable with my weight, I am healthy and I dont want to change because the society says that people should be thin. In my opinion, over the years and following the bad habits that he has, I am not sure if he is passing to be healthy. He maybe is proud of how he is but if he does not start to eat healthy and do exercise, he is sledding to see the consequences in a few years. In conclusion, being obese or overweight is an issue but it is also a disease. Although, it is unhealthy and unsightly, the hardest is some of them feel like they cannot fit in our society. In my opinion, we should not judge them we should help them to make the correct decision to have a healthy life and also we have to change the stereotype that the society has showed us.Also, I used to think all obese people were discontent to be fat. But my recent researches show me that some obese people simply do not care what people say about them and they are happy how they are.
