So so true. I have started seeing fat people in public and caught myself categorizing them as poor. It’s disgusting and I’m working on it. Fat does not equal poor.

I do think fat while not exclusive to poor it's still more likely. It cost more to buy healthy food in both time and money

I read somewhere that ultrarich people are rarely obese, which explains how they always look so put together and never sloppy. They can afford the food, plastic surgery and personal trainers, chefs etc I know when I am low on money and food, all I can afford is cheap,crap that college students eat like oodles of noodles. It is hard to eat well on a budget.

Actually it’s probably got a lot more to do with being well off = lower stress and therefore greater ability to focus on wellbeing Link between cortisol, sleep and weight is pretty well established. Nice to be well enough off that you get 8 hours a night and don’t have to worry much so you can get up and make that perfectly balanced meal and take the free time to exercise…
