I am a gainer, love my fat and the big living. I have my health issues, and mobility challenges. I consider all the things that I could be doing if I was less fat, and having done most of that already it not that engaging to me. I am almost 60 and I look at some people at 80 plus and there issues and think no way. I personally would rather die from something I love than sit around fighting death and having it happen anyway with cancer or whatever But I guess I am not talking about being thirty odd. So not sure it counts in this context.
That’s very similar to how I feel. I don’t actively seek death through overeating or weight gain but the enjoyment of these activities outweighs their negatives for me.
At almost 50 and almost 500 pounds I definitely have some health problems due to my weight but also my preference for overeating, especially fast food and comfort food. But I accept health and mobility issues in exchange for the satisfaction and joy I get out of being very fat and eating as much as possible of my favorite foods.
