It's not. Most of the people I've encountered who are fat due to a legit medical reason, are fat secondary to medications they are prescribed. Psych meds are especially bad in this regard. There are definitely people with undiagnosed hypothyroidism but that's rare.
Fatties have learned that it is socially acceptable to say "I have a glandular disorder." Some may have google fu strong enough to say they have hypothyroidism. What I have found is that when I say, "really I'm a paramedic and I find endocrine disorders really interesting. What disorder do you have? [or alternately] What medications are you taking for it? Who's your endocrinologist?" What they inevitably end up telling me is that they are self diagnosing.
Most fatties are intelligent enough to know that they should be ashamed of themselves and many will lie. Another hilarious response is when they tell me they are overweight because they have type II diabetes. This is especially hilarious because they typically have type II diabetes because they are lazy lard asses.

RE: Big Fat Fatty gets rewarded with model contract
Fatty states the obvious by saying "Black men love me." She's forced to apologize.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/articl...ve-me.html
Quote:Plus-size body activist Tess Holliday has apologized for saying that 'black men love me' in an interview after she was catcalled by an 'older black man'.
The size 22 pin-up took to her Facebook page yesterday to issue an apology for her controversial comments, which appeared in the The Guardian last week. The 29-year-old Mississippi-born supermodel noted that she never meant to offend anyone, suggesting that her words were taken out of context.
'The incident in question occurred when I was on the street, feeling rather exposed in my underwear for the shoot, and an older black man catcalled me as I was walking behind the team,' she wrote. 'I replayed the incident to the team once we were set up for the next shot, and jokingly said some semblance of what appeared in print.'
According to The Guardian, a middle-aged African American man 'said something appreciative' when he walked by Tess, prompting her to ask: 'What do guys think they’ll achieve by yelling something? They’re like: “She’ll love this, I’ll definitely get her number.”’
The article went on to say that with 'some satisfaction' Tess added: 'I do admit that black men love me. I always forget that, and then I come to a black neighborhood and I remember.'
The interviewer responded to her comment by noting: 'And no one quite knew what to say.'
In her apology, Tess said her comment was 'in relation to being catcalled by black men significantly more than by white, but perhaps my tone and wording didn't convey this clearly'.
She continued: 'It was also meant to play into the idea that black men like bigger women, but the humor of that doesn't come through. To further add context, the team included two talented black women - so it was clearly not something intended to cause offense.'
After Tess's interview was released, many were appalled by her racially charged comments.
In the battle of fat acceptance vs. political correctness, PC wins.
