CDC: 37% Of Black Men Are Obese And 55 percent of Black Women Are Obese

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

It’s all mental. It’s actually cheaper to eat better. I use to eat when I was bored or mad or to celebrate. I had to reprogram myself after my last pregnancy. I am really picky about what I eat. I don’t eat fast food any more(I miss Chick-fil-A ). I eat less than 50 carbs. I feel like . I do a light 2 mi walk at work. At first it was hard but after 2 weeks I stop craving bullshyt food and I found myself having to force myself to eat.

Nah, people eat what they can afford and what's convenient. The most expensive item on the menu at McDonald's is a salad.

Black men still have the highest deaths from cardiac arrest and strokes. I count seven black men under the age of 40 that died of heart attacks...only one was considered obese. Definitely have to cut the alcoholic into intake and processed foods. Most black men are pretty active so thats good. Monitor that blood pressure and cut back alcohol intake.

what cause heart attacks and strokes? My grandpa died of heart attack the day before my pops got out of prison . and my dad had a mild attack like 2 years ago

Black men still suffer from more heart attacks and strokes though.

You don’t have to be that big to have type 2 DM

It’s true that we do workout more for appearance but we still like our bbq, salt on our fries, burgers and other shyt we should cut down in eating ....

This is it here. Unhealthy food is more convenient, but if you do a unit cost per meal, it's still just as cheap to eat healthy food. It just isn't as convenient because you have to cook the food yourself.

Once you start eating clean and keep your gut healthy

you flow straight from the survivor scrolls and see the matrix

The American diet isn’t for black ppl

The American diet isn't for any American regardless of race/ethnicity. You yanks are just fat and gluttonous.

Real talk black folk kill me w/this shyt

Crap diet/obesity/heart disease and hypertension are bad for EVERYONE, its a whole lot of fat ass white ppl dealin w/this shyt if y'all aint notice

The disparities are due to social factors, not cause fried food was invented to kill off black folk. We got enough problems as is without acting like this shyt specifically targets us on a biological level

I don't wanna hear that stress BS because alot of people out here in this world deal with stress and they're not all obese either so enough with that excuse.

People who're fat/obese is mainly because of their LOVE of food (shyt I don't blame em) & lack of physical activity (outside of work) to the point they overeat and forget that all of that extreme eating while tasty has it's on side effects and weight gain is one of them.

It's that simple...there's no need for the over the top gymnastic excuses.

I saved money not eating out everyday and not buying cookies chips and cakes

There is enough variety in American grocery stores... Lets not play that "American Diet" game.. Leafy veggies, and fruit exist in America...

I made Lentil, Garbanzo bean, black been chili that has lasted me lunch for 7 days and that cost a total of $22 for everything I needed to make it... Thats $3.14 for lunch for a week.... Mcdonalds is literally $6 to $10 in California... shyt isn't really that "cheap"

$3.14 for some homemade delicious high plant based protein chili, or $7 for some cancerous treat...
