Laziness is not the only cause of obesity!

Generally when we see an obese person we think it’s because of their laziness and junk food or overeating.But these are not the only reasons behind it!

Stress, disturb sleep routine,slow metabolism, eating food due to uncontrollable and unbearable pain and thoughts these are caused by stress hormone known as cortisol.

Person in stress can also overeat because of their emotional exhaustions!

And the worst part everyone notices the weight but not the stress someone’s going through.

Reasons behind the obesity are give below:

Hormonal imbalance

Conditions such as PCOS and Pcod in female

Genetics and family History

Stress and emotional health

Certain medications

Processed food

Thyroid conditions

It can be managed by the people around them by supporting them emotionally and guiding them how they can improve their health!

Why we people can judge anyone instantly, instead of helping someone and understand their situation?have you ever tried to guide someone for their health improvement genuinely?

It’s true that laziness is not only one cause of obesity, obesity may be related to other factors like hormonal factors and genetics.

True, as how easily many people link obesity with laziness and lifestyle but never take a second guess that something genuine must be a reason and start judging.

It’s true that first thing that crosses our mind when we hear obese is consuming unhealthy foods, no physical activity and we instantly suggest of eating healthy food, do proper physical activity. However there could be other conditions that are leading to obesity in some individuals like hormonal imbalance, metabolic disorder etc. It’s important to understand the underlying cause for obesity rather than instantly judging their lifestyle.

No I hadn’t tried because the people around me like my peer group are stubborn and also i don’t like their attitude,So its better for me to keep calm and spectate!

By looking outwardly, we often relate laziness with obesity. But talking to the person, we realize that there is some underlying issue which goes deeper than the skin.

Yes..many times people judge other instantly without knowing actual fact and is the worst part for themselves also.

True, insightful post

So true! We often judge without knowing what someone is going through. A little understanding and support can make a big difference.

very true. Obesity is not always caused by overeating or laziness. What plays major role is mental health, stress, hormones. What i really like about this post is that it shows that how important is empathy and awareness are, because supporting someone is always better than criticizing them

Very true. Obesity is far more complex than people often assume. Factors like stress, hormones, emotional health, genetics, and medical conditions can all play a major role. Instead of judging someone based only on appearance, people should try to understand the underlying struggles and encourage healthier habits with empathy and support.

Obesity and overweight are often seen as diseases, treated as something one should be ashamed of. Society makes such conditions a joke, often seeing people with obesity in a condescending light, making them a ridicule. I think what everyone should understand is that obesity is completely reversible, and proper diet and exercise, along with a screening for underlying health causes and the use of medications, can help the person.

Yes agreed. We overlook the reasons what has led to obesity. We should actually encourage them and support them emotionally.

True that !!
Also to mention that pcod is now pmos (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome)

well explained!
