Maher/Corden and obesity
#67
RE: Maher/Corden and obesity
Make no mistake, you might not like to see really fat people, but it's actually been demonstrated that fat-shaming not only does not help the overweight lose wait, it actually helps them GAIN weight.

The new Down the Rabbit Hole episode focuses on Wings of Redemption, a Call of Duty Let's Player infamous for his poor attitude and his obesity. At one point, he topped 470 lbs. He didn't start out quite that heavy (still alarmingly obese, though, no less than 300 lb by the time of his face reveal), but once the trolls started to derail his career (most often for how pathetic he was, but of course, fat-shaming was part of it), he kept gaining weight until he was just a hair below A QUARTER OF A TON. One major thread over the last quarter of the video is his attempts at getting approved for a Gastric Sleeve surgery. Eventually, late last June, he actually got it. And he still managed to lose less weight than usual. And I suspect that the stress he's had dealing with his trolls, (and even if he lost the amount of weight expected, it'd still be 280, so they still make fat jokes) might be partly to blame (although his poor diet and sedentary habits can't be helping).
