Sometimes people hate things that are different just because they are different, or they know thin and fit is conventionally more attractive and they hate that fact without wanting to be thin or fit.

You do realize this is r/science and it’s ok to think of more than one possibility.

Youre really trying to square peg-round hole that one. Topic is obesity which they rounded down to well fed. They say everything else is underweight.

Then you went off topic; if the topic was well fed it would be just that. A morsel too much or a morsel too little would be immaterial with no automatic assumption of excess (which is entirely irrelevant to the topic at hand anyhow).

Reply to LPT how do people have a strong mindset and self-discipline to succeed in life? how do they create so much awareness in life and willingness to learn? by Akashh23_pop

Pick one habit and stick with it, eg never adding additional white sugar to food or drinks. Stick with it. Once it’s part of your lifestyle, you can either build on it (eating and drinking fewer foods with sugar already in them) or branch out, eg not adding salt to any food. Then expand to perhaps smaller portions, or replacing something better for something worse.

Start small but be consistent.

The key is it’s fun to feel the excitement of motivation but it’s really the simple repetition of something becoming habit, literally becoming part of who you are.

The single best example is any obese person; how they got fat doesn’t matter as all fat is the same whether carried past pregnancy, poor eating, no activity, whatever. Doesn’t matter.

The ‘failures’ will make a big deal about summer beach bodies or New Years resolutions and slam the gym hard for a week or buy miracle gadgets. But the one’s who not only lose weight but keep it off, start with the simplest thing and once they no longer have to think about it (discipline replaced by habit) they add another simple item.

Enthusiasm won’t get you there but adopting successive good habits will.

Changing a mindset is just repetition, step by step.

Reply to My great aunt Penny and my great uncle Joel a year before they were married in 1969. Out of five siblings, they’re the only couple still together today. by madzquinn7

I made a toast at my sister’s wedding for them not to take any family advice because the divorce rate was 100%. People laughed. People gave dirty looks. Sister was grumpy as usual. 10/10 would do it again.

Your great aunt and uncle look like ‘great’ people.
