I wouldn't say people here praise them.. Maybe just a "nice work!" or pat on the back.
Better to get fat and lose the weight than simply get fat and stay fat.. Also it's much much easier to gain the weight than to lose it, speaking as someone who has lost nearly 30 pounds in the past few years. Probably took me a year to gain that weight and mainly was a result of me sitting around and eating all the foods I liked, whereas to lose it (and keep it off) I had to implement a pretty hardcore 4-5 day a week workout regimen, cut way back on my junk foods and drinking, eat more boring vegatables, and that took me roughly twice the time.
