00:00:00.000 And that they are also informed and educated.
00:00:02.320 I guess the government tries to do that.
00:00:04.420 And also, if we're comparing it to anorexia,
00:00:07.160 which is an eating disorder, which is linked to mental health,
00:00:10.220 is being obese not the same thing?
00:00:12.660 It's an eating disorder, which is mental health,
00:00:15.000 which is something that is a serious matter.
00:00:17.100 It's actually a habit.
00:00:19.300 That's something that nobody can help apart from that person.
00:00:24.500 If that person has a mental health issue,
00:00:27.480 and on that day, they decide to get on camera
00:00:30.020 and big up themselves, then go on you.
00:00:32.320 Because if you're going through all of that
00:00:36.040 to get to where you are now...
00:00:37.580 Why don't you ask him, because he's the personal trainer.
00:00:41.900 Are you a mental health coach as well?
00:00:43.900 Are you an expert?
00:00:46.080 So you're on the topic of mental health?
00:00:48.520 Yeah, because we compared it to anorexia.
00:00:51.060 Anorexia is an eating disorder, which is linked to mental health.
00:00:53.840 So if obesity is also an eating disorder,
00:00:59.880 which would then be linked to mental health,
00:01:01.780 which means it's a mental health condition.
00:01:03.560 Because part of personal training is we have to go through
00:01:05.940 life coaching courses as well.
00:01:08.660 All of that, we all have mental problems.
00:01:11.760 Sitting here, we all have mental problems.
00:01:14.660 A habit.
00:01:16.140 She has developed a habit, which is part of mental problems.
00:01:20.660 What you do on a daily basis is a habit.
00:01:23.000 Do you think it's hereditary as well?
00:01:25.060 Do you think it's something that's passed down as well?
00:01:27.280 Could be.
00:01:27.740 Because that's another thing as well.
00:01:28.960 Could be, because, yeah.
00:01:30.060 I think it goes back to the moms.
00:01:32.180 Not teaching the kids how to eat.
00:01:35.160 Yeah, yeah.
00:01:35.740 No, but some kids are born obese.
00:01:38.020 So how do you explain that?
00:01:39.740 No, they're not born obese.
00:01:40.800 No, but you know what I'm saying?
00:01:42.240 There's some kids that are like...
00:01:43.420 Okay, can we just...
00:01:44.300 Okay, I need to...
00:01:45.300 Wait, wait, wait.
00:01:45.740 So, so, let's just be honest.
00:01:48.340 The mom feeds the kid.
00:01:49.800 So if the kid...
00:01:50.480 I would go as far to say that if your kid's obese, that honestly, that's child abuse.
00:01:55.500 Because you're putting that kid...
00:01:56.880 That's a hard life, to be obese, overweight as a child.
00:02:00.560 Sorry, I wanted to turn it back to you.
00:02:01.760 It's like a smoker, right?
00:02:02.780 Every day.
00:02:03.580 You'd say, oh, because you can't stop smoking.
00:02:06.020 You have mental health.
00:02:07.440 No, because, no, eating disorders are nothing like...
00:02:09.980 You can't compare an eating disorder to...
00:02:12.060 No, but eating disorder is nothing like smoking.
00:02:15.040 I guess anorexic people think that they...
00:02:17.720 Well, normally, I think, or usually, they don't see their weight.
00:02:21.000 So they actually don't realise how skinny they are.
00:02:22.900 Whereas, I don't know if that...
00:02:23.900 Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:24.880 I've heard that before.
00:02:25.660 So you don't think she didn't see her weight?
00:02:28.160 Possibly.
00:02:28.700 No, but that's what I mean.
00:02:29.780 Yeah, possibly.
00:02:31.960 Possibly.
00:02:32.880 But why are we fat-shaming, though?
00:02:35.320 My question is, why are we fat-shaming?
00:02:37.220 It's like discrimination, isn't it?
00:02:38.620 I don't think we are shaming at all.
00:02:42.380 No, but I feel like that is, though.
00:02:44.920 I think...
00:02:45.660 No?
00:02:46.080 Am I the only one that feels that way?
00:02:47.560 Yeah, a thousand percent.
00:02:48.560 I don't think fat-shaming adults do that.
00:02:49.920 I support every single thing that you guys are seeing,
00:02:51.540 with her loving herself, her feeling confident and everything.
00:02:54.260 Look, I'm just praising how she feels about herself.
00:02:56.420 And I support that.
00:02:57.900 That's it.
00:02:58.280 Beauty isn't the eye of the beholder.
00:02:59.760 Some people would find her desirable.
00:03:02.300 I support that 100%.
00:03:03.800 It's like pretty...
00:03:04.920 People find the same people attractive.
00:03:05.580 As I say, what I do not support is...
00:03:08.100 We cannot take this to mental health.
00:03:10.820 God forbid if she is to end up in the hospital.
00:03:13.800 And the doctor was like,
00:03:14.700 you're in a health condition at high risk
00:03:16.320 where you have to lose weight.
00:03:18.640 How are you going to feel
00:03:20.040 knowing that you were supporting that person?
00:03:22.580 It's not really supporting, though.
00:03:24.400 It's not about supporting it.
00:03:24.820 Yeah.
00:03:26.100 You're not trying to tell...
00:03:27.780 But you are.
00:03:28.080 Not really.
00:03:28.800 But it's a different aspect of it.
00:03:30.340 Okay, okay.
00:03:31.040 What about people that are born...
00:03:32.620 Like, they're facially...
00:03:33.760 As I say, mental and physical is too big difference.
00:03:36.800 We have to understand that.
00:03:39.180 It's too big difference.
00:03:40.080 We're not talking about mental.
00:03:41.080 We're talking about...
00:03:41.580 At the end of the day,
00:03:42.640 I'm supporting how she feels about herself.
00:03:44.760 But we need to realize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
00:03:47.820 Because everyone looks different.
00:03:48.840 Not everyone is born with the same fate.
00:03:50.680 Okay, I have a question.
00:03:52.360 Do you think you're equally as attractive as that woman on screen?
00:03:55.340 I think it depends who we're asking.
00:03:57.340 Can we just...
00:03:58.440 Do you think that most men would find you more attractive
00:04:00.920 or her more attractive?
00:04:03.240 Please.
00:04:03.780 Please don't please.
00:04:04.800 Just make this please.
00:04:06.380 That's a serious question.
00:04:08.160 I know you know the answer.
00:04:09.980 Please.
00:04:11.240 But why has it got to be about comparison?
00:04:13.220 Why are big grown people?
00:04:14.920 Please just answer.
00:04:15.540 Please just be an adult.
00:04:16.540 Answer the question.
00:04:17.540 Please.
00:04:17.840 Yeah, it's please.
00:04:18.720 I just don't feel comfortable even answering something like that.
00:04:22.420 I just don't know.
00:04:22.740 Because you know the answer.
00:04:25.080 It's like...
00:04:25.760 Most people probably, but like not everyone would...
00:04:29.000 Okay, but most.
00:04:30.000 What did I ask?
00:04:30.820 Most people.
00:04:31.960 Come on, we're adults.
00:04:32.420 Probably, probably.
00:04:33.140 Would find you more attractive, right?
00:04:36.120 Most people.
00:04:36.760 Guys, I think we take it.
00:04:37.920 As I said, I support her...
00:04:39.700 I support her mindset.
00:04:42.360 That's what I'm supporting.
00:04:43.380 I do.
00:04:44.160 But her physical state is too different.
00:04:46.900 I don't support the mindset.
00:04:48.720 I don't think you should be confident out that way.
00:04:50.580 I think you should lose it.
00:04:51.620 I just think you should be unconfident and lose it.
00:04:54.540 And with that confidence, she could use that to get better.
00:04:58.820 Yeah, I believe that.
00:04:59.940 I think that...
00:05:00.720 I support that.
00:05:01.420 I think that hate it.
00:05:02.200 But maybe she is.
00:05:04.360 And each step as she takes, she might be on her way of losing.
00:05:08.300 And who knows?
00:05:08.900 But we don't know that.
00:05:10.320 We don't know her life.
00:05:12.520 We don't know.
00:05:13.140 But right now, in this specific moment, she's happy with herself.
00:05:17.260 And good for her.
00:05:18.640 And that's all I'm supporting.
00:05:19.820 Did she drop 10 pounds?
00:05:20.800 We don't know.
00:05:21.780 She might have been bigger than that.
00:05:23.400 Do you know?
00:05:23.960 She could.
00:05:24.360 You guys come up with these crazy scenarios.
00:05:26.980 Yeah, but we're only looking at it from how it is.
00:05:28.780 Okay, okay, wait, wait.
00:05:29.880 How much bigger could she get?
00:05:31.980 Who knows?
00:05:32.960 How much bigger?
00:05:33.920 Bed bound.
00:05:34.880 Who knows?
00:05:35.560 No, but this is what I'm saying.
00:05:37.000 It's like we're supporting this.
00:05:38.540 And we're cheering her on living in delusion.
00:05:40.840 It's delusion.
00:05:41.740 Yeah, but the question was just hot.
00:05:43.200 No, I asked why do we let women get to this stage of delusion
00:05:47.120 where you're saying I look good today when you clearly don't.
00:05:50.540 Everybody in the room knows she doesn't.
00:05:52.460 You know you wouldn't want to switch bodies with her.
00:05:55.000 And it's like I think that honestly, a little bit of bullying is good for people.
00:06:00.140 No, it's not.
00:06:00.540 I think I grew from bullying.
00:06:02.740 That's not good for your mental health.
00:06:04.560 I think it's good for strong people.
00:06:06.540 Pearl, I do feel.
00:06:07.040 Yeah, but not everybody is though.
00:06:08.460 No, I don't agree that.
00:06:09.820 I do feel like you know that going through stuff
00:06:13.100 can also cut you off from your emotions.
00:06:14.760 You might actually be too cough.
00:06:15.940 You might be hyper-independent.
00:06:17.260 That's actually not a good response.
00:06:19.100 What's not a good response?
00:06:20.380 You know, I think it was a great response
00:06:21.940 when I was indirectly told I was fat.
00:06:25.180 I ran a marathon and lost that weight, baby.
00:06:27.500 I'm just glad that happened.
00:06:29.280 But it's like this society, it's like we can't call spade a spade.
00:06:33.880 She's fat.
00:06:34.940 Because there's more to it.
00:06:36.260 There's always more to it.
00:06:37.040 We keep going back to mental health.
00:06:39.540 And as I told you, mental and physical two big differences.
00:06:42.600 I think it's important to appreciate
00:06:44.160 what different people look like
00:06:45.280 because we actually can't help it all the time.
00:06:46.880 Yes, okay, weight is a bit different thing.
00:06:48.820 But like, we can't judge people's appearance all the time
00:06:50.720 because sometimes it's not someone's choice.
00:06:52.920 I think we should judge people's appearances.
00:06:55.440 I don't think we should judge anyone at all.
00:06:57.560 Well, I think you shouldn't judge at all.
00:06:59.220 Only God judges, man.
00:07:00.520 Let's keep it like that.
00:07:01.300 I think that you guys are liars.
00:07:02.680 I think you go through life
00:07:04.000 and you do judge people's appearances.
00:07:05.740 We have good standards and morals
00:07:07.120 where we've been taught not to judge other people
00:07:09.020 based on their appearances.
00:07:09.980 That's its standard.
00:07:11.480 I think that you do judge people's appearances every day
00:07:15.160 just like you did when we were talking about the dating
00:07:17.360 and you said you wouldn't date obese.
00:07:18.960 Why did you judge?
00:07:20.180 Judger, judger.
00:07:21.360 That's not a judge.
00:07:22.020 But I thought you were raised with the morals.
00:07:23.380 Judger, judger.
00:07:24.100 That's a personal preference.
00:07:25.640 That's a personal preference.
00:07:26.140 It's personal preference.
00:07:27.060 It's completely different.
00:07:28.460 I'm not sitting here watching, putting up a photo
00:07:31.540 and saying, that person's fat, ha ha.
00:07:33.240 I'm not doing that.
00:07:34.200 The personal preference, I don't like it.
00:07:36.360 And that's okay.
00:07:37.100 If me and an obese person run a race, right,
00:07:40.560 would you say that I am faster because,
00:07:42.660 because, you know, I was lighter?
00:07:46.040 Well, of course.
00:07:47.180 Well, right, I was judging.
00:07:48.960 Yeah, but it's a fact.
00:07:50.740 It's a fact, though.
00:07:51.260 If you're lighter and you're running against a fat person,
00:07:54.080 of course you're going to win.
00:07:54.740 So we are speaking on facts.
00:07:56.500 When she put that picture up and she asked that question,
00:07:58.780 it was a fact that she is obese.
00:08:02.060 Yeah, she is obese.
00:08:03.580 But I'm praising her.
00:08:05.340 I'm praising how she receives it.
00:08:07.520 I'm praising how she sees herself.
00:08:09.700 And I agree with her.
00:08:10.200 And that's it, man.
00:08:11.100 And I agree with her.
00:08:11.740 That's what I support.
00:08:12.900 I think you're praising delusion.
00:08:15.380 It's not delusion.
00:08:16.280 It's just her loving herself.
00:08:17.980 If she's paying for her own health care,
00:08:19.640 why do we even care at all?
00:08:21.720 It's not about disease.
00:08:23.640 It doesn't affect us at all.
00:08:24.960 I know what you're doing.
00:08:25.800 Why do I care if she's obese?
00:08:36.000 As a person, I don't know her.
00:08:38.360 But as a society,
00:08:39.520 I don't think we should be promoting obesity.
00:08:42.420 I think that obese people take a toll on the health care system.
00:08:46.540 And it's really hard on her family.
00:08:48.820 Like maybe if she has kids, siblings, parents,
00:08:51.340 they're the ones that are going to have to take care of her.
00:08:53.440 Therefore, I think that is selfish to be that obese.
00:08:56.640 If she has kids, even if it's parents,
00:08:59.240 your parents have to watch their kid die.
00:09:01.080 I think it's just her choice.
00:09:02.760 And if she's happy with how she is, then that's fine.
00:09:05.920 If she's not happy how she is, then you can pass judgment.
00:09:09.280 Then you can have...
00:09:10.220 And that's fine.
00:09:10.800 We could be trying to help her.
00:09:12.020 You know what I'm saying?
00:09:12.720 If she's happy, if she's okay with it, you know?
00:09:15.500 I do agree with it being posted on social media.
00:09:17.860 Be happy with that for yourself, by yourself.
00:09:20.120 Because why are we going to create a community of feeling good,
00:09:30.040 being obese and knowing there's so much health challenges behind it?
00:09:32.680 My brother, my brother, there's a lot of people.
00:09:35.420 I'm not talking about the mentality, as I say.
00:09:37.680 Mentality.
00:09:38.500 Why are we promoting obesity,
00:09:40.820 knowing there's so much health challenges behind it?
00:09:43.520 That's like you're saying,
00:09:44.220 go have sex with everyone at all condom.
00:09:46.700 But that's what's being promoted.
00:09:47.720 Yeah, that's terrible.
00:09:49.020 And it's none of our concern.
00:09:49.620 Well, we should be wearing condoms.
00:09:51.000 Don't bother us.
00:09:52.520 But that doesn't get brought into discussion.
00:09:54.380 As many of you know, I was just banned on TikTok.
00:09:57.660 And we are demonetized on a daily basis on this platform.
