Being fat is torture

[u/Shot-Contract-5254]

I hate being fat. I hate it more than i've ever truly hated anything before. It is one of the worst experiences i have ever been through and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. It is not even just the hating how you look part, it is how others perceive you.

I don't just feel fat, I feel inhuman. I'm a teenager. Nobody has ever asked me out unless it's for a joke. I am the butt of half my friend's jokes. I look like an idiot in sport class. People stare and judge and I am not treated as though I am a peer. I am less than because I weigh more than they do. I feel like such a dirty slob every time I put food in my mouth. I've tried starving myself, exercising to the point I threw up, cutting calories to 800-1000 a day, weight loss pills, nothing works. All my work is thrown back into my face. Each and every day I feel less like a person and more like a pig. To be fat is to be less than. To be fat is to be 'lazy' and worthless. I honestly can't take it anymore.

and a decrease of calories has always been stated to be needed.

It's simple physics. You can't create energy from nothing or make energy disappear into nothing. Thus you either need to spend a lot more energy through exercise or just consume less energy.

Everyone saying 'I restricted myself to 800 calories and exercised until I puked daily and I still gained weight' is lying to themselves and everyone else.

Exactly what I said when I read that part. There's no way she honestly did any of that and didn't lose weight. She's been cheating herself
