Some people, like me, enjoy life more If they are at least somewhat physically fit.

That’s good for you. The original meme was literally body shaming him while on vacation

Edit: for the curious it was literally for a film festival

After some cursory research ([1] among other meta-analyses), this does not seem to be true below the age of 80. Could you cite a source?

That’s what I mean too: Blanket statements are nonsense. Of course, this applies in both directions.

I just mean that it seems kind of strange to equate looking somewhat unhealthy with enjoying your life.

Oh it would.

I feel better being more fit because a lot of my interests (and my job) are very physical, and being as large as I am now makes doing the things I enjoy doing more difficult.

Not everyone has those interests or that type of work, and that’s okay, too. We all have value.

“It’s strange that people think they can enjoy life in ways that I don’t enjoy” is definitely a take.
