Is it possible to be fat and healthy?

It's possible.

Is it possible that YOU are fat and healthy?

No.

Not in any way ever.

Well sure it is possible. The point is that you shouldn't count on it happening when you're broke. The same way fat people shouldn't hope they'll get lucky either.

>>29327136
Fat and healthy yeah, obese and healthy no
>>
>>29327136
Nope, even if you are "healthy" you certainly don't look "healthy" and that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

No. Just stop eating and do some cardio.
>>
Yeah it is. One of my friends is like 80 pounds overweight but he doesn't have diabetes, his blood pressure is perfect, his heart is perfect, is stamina is pretty good. He works out and has a lot of muscle along with his fat though. Mainly though, his diet is good. He only drinks water and only really eats healthy food. Doesn't eat fried stuff or junk food or sweets. The only reason he's fat is because he eats a ton but when you're only eating vegetables and chicken and shit, your body probably adapts well.

Even he admits though he's the 1% and his body will probably struggle with his weight when he's an old man. But at the current time he's a ox.

Exactly this.

It's possible, but it gets exponentially harder. I was fat and healthy when I was playing sports in high school, and I was fat and healthy for a short period after it, but now I'm in my mid-twenties. The endurance is still there but I can slowly feel my body slowing down.

Don't fall for it HAES meme, Anon. Get in shape.
>>
>>29327136
Well yes, but honestly it's a pretty narrow range. I mean, I know people in better shape than those of a healthy size.

But usually, if you have to ask, then no. You can be in good shape for your size, but you aren't going to be healthy when you have a bunch of fat all over your body.

Hit the gym, fatty. We're all gonna make it. .

>>29327136
Yes, it depends on why you are fat. Fructose and Alcohol really fuck up your body, these fatties are sick all the time and get chronic metabolic diseases.
If you are fat from eating too many healthy (or at least neutral) calories you still have a lower quality of life from being ugly and heavy (not as agile as other people) but you will be physiologily healthy.
>>
>>29327136
yes, for a hippo
>>
>>29327136
No. Either you're having heart failures etc or you're just fucked in the head to become fat in the first place.

These anons are all kinds right.
Truth is, you can be fat and healthy. But, the real question is, for how long?

You can put in fifty pounds in half a year, and your body will probably be okay with the idea for a while.

But when you're fat, your body wears out so much quicker. You might be healthy now, but soon, you'll start to spring leaks everywhere, and much sooner than thin people.

Get thin anons. You don't want your knees to break and your heart to quit on you.

You may be fine now, but you won't be soon.

I'd assume no. I'm pushing 400 pounds but I can still swim and hike and do a lot of physical activity. And I got a gut, trust me.
Only reason my eating isn't better is because money is low, which sucks. I promised myself if I can get the fat off (by dieting or maybe cheat and do lipo) I'd stick with training regimens and shit.

Most often the way you lose weight is by cutting calories. If your caloric input is less than your physical output you lose weight. But exercise hasn't been shown to be directly correlated with weight. What tends to happens moreso is that exercise improves the quality of your heart bones and lungs.

Also to answer op, yes. About a third of obese individuals are considered metabolically healthy, but as a lot of anons have said, that's only a transitional phase about twelve percent of people that were previously classed as such end up becoming metabolically unhealthy as they age.

So keep all of this in mind.
