Apparently the average radius of the Earth at its equator is 6,378,000m. This means that in a day, someone sitting on a couch at the equator would travel (2 * \pi * 6378,000)m, which equals 40053840m. There are around 86,400 seconds in a day, so the equatorial couch sitter travels at 464m/s (rounded to 3s.f). That's 1040mph.
I think the average walking speed is 3pmh. Amusingly, the mph figure I calculated above is 1037 if rounded to 4s.f. rather than 3, so the speed difference between the walker and a couch sitter is literally a rounding error.
The conclusion here is something that everyone here already knew before I wrote this comment: it's hard to make any sense of individual human health progress if we try to think of it on a planetary scale.
most of the time it's because of something out of the person's control not that being fat is even a bad thing. I for one just lost 48 lbs literally just by getting on Wellbutrin, went from 310 to 262 in a couple months. It's usually like a genetic or metabolism thing, or they were on a med that made then gain weight, something.
Being fat is a bad thing. Its bad for you health and self image. No one wakes up wanting to be fat. Don't be afraid to fat shame, that will atleast motivate those fookers a bit
True, no one wakes up with a goal to be fat. But if you had to choose between being full symptom schizophrenic and being fat the choice is more nuanced
