Why is it so easy for black women to remain fat?

[Anonymous]

Not everyone is eating fast foods, but still getting fat. Is there an answer to this?

N. B. I'm asking for those who are not embracing body positivity when fat or those opting to remain fat.

Most black women in America are obese because they are addicted to fast food and lost the know how in how to cook. Plus they are very southern centric so most of what they eat is high in fats, salts, processed carbs, and sugars. I've met many who don't know what is and is not healthy. They don't take the time to research. Some cultures look at black people as very lazy and indeed I have met a large portion who are couch potatoes and gobble nothing but fast food.

They don't go to the gym. Or wxcerise.

That's why the joke is black girls don't go to the gym.

And if they do go it's 1-2 max rare unicorn.


And they eat all day and sit all day

There food they cook in their house is fast food adjacent

Genetics plays a role in the metabolic rates of people, however it may also just be that a person’s calorie intake is higher than their output.

It's not specific to them; this applies to most people

Understood. Just seems to be that black women proportionately are larger since the 90s and accepting of it compared to other women. (All generalizations)

I agree with you on that point

A lot of it is cultural.
