I believe that the majority of fat people on electric scooters have chosen food (at the detriment of their health) over walking. CMV

Disclaimers:

1) I am not talking about people in wheelchairs.

2) I am a 5'8 male that weighed 260 pounds in may of 2012 and lost 100 pounds over the last year. All of that was done by diet. 

On to my opinion.

I learned last year that weight loss is wrongly attributed to exorcise by the majority of this country (America). That said, it feels like all these fat 50-60 year old men and women blame the fat on something physical. "I cant walk so how could i burn off all this fat?" or "Some glands dont work 100% normal".

I think these people value food over walking, and are content with their situations. Because 30 minutes on google, could teach them the basic calories in / calories out formula and they would be thin in no time.

You are basing your opinion on the very common fallacy that faults in psychology are less forgivable than faults in physiology because there is a clear distinction between the two.

Take Huntington's Disease as an example. The diagnosis for HD usually happens when symptoms of muscular ticks and slurred speech inhibit someone's life, but in many HD patients, previous to the clinical diagnosis, that person experiences a massive personality change resulting in reckless, anti-social behavior. A middle-aged man who suddenly leaves in the night, cashes out the retirement fund and spends it on drugs, gambling, and prostitutes is not an outlandish behavior for someone experiencing early stages of HD.

If a person damages his or her frontal lobe, it can cause all sorts of bizarre behavioral problems from simply having no social filter to becoming a serial murderer. There was a really cool experiment done with people with a certain type of frontal lobe stroke where they were chose to choose between two piles of candy. They were told that if they reached for one pile, they would receive the contents of the other. They then repeated back the instructions and indicated which pile they preferred; they knew, cognitively, exactly what was going on. Then when they reached, they would reach (overwhelmingly) for the pile they preferred, even though they knew that by doing it they would get the pile they preferred less.

The way we behave is intricately linked to the physiological processes in our bodies. Just knowing that a particular set of behaviors is preferred and even desiring to follow those behaviors in order to achieve a certain result is often not enough to actually create behavior change. Do people in this sort of situation look for justifications to explain their failures in order to not have to dwell on their dissatisfaction? Absolutely, but it is no different from assigning blame and discounting these people as 'lazy' in order to satisfy your dissatisfaction with their existence.
