It depends on whether the said obese person wants to be skinny, if that is the case than every second of the day, if that is not the case than only if the obese person has decided to be skinny or if someone has commented on their weight.

Do people care they are obese?
Of Course people care if they are obese. Don't skinny people care that they are skinny. Most Americans believe that obese people are often lazy and have no control over what they eat. That is not true. You could have medical conditions limiting you to what you can/can't eat or if you can exercise. Just like skinny people, obese people care about their apperance. (especially women.) Skinny people don't want to wear baggy clothes making them look bigger whereas overweight people dont want to wear skin tight clothes showing their stomach. Lastly, obese people care that they are obese because they are treated differently. In magazines...you don't always see when Oprah might give $1,000,000 to a charity but if she gains 10 pounds...it's on the cover of every tabloid. Obese people are still humans and still have the same characteristics as a skinny person therefore, concluding that they DO CARE if they are obese.

How does obesity affects your emotional health?
Often an obese person is ostracized by society because 'thin is in' along with 'the beautiful people.' Society either doesn't care or they are too ignorant to know that some people who are grossly overweight are not that way because they overeat or, there is something wrong where they can't stop eating, but scientists are getting closer (the brain ... which tells us when we are hungry) to finding out why obese people end up this way. Obese people often are outcasts by society and therefore they feel unattractive; extremely lonely and some give up on life which, in turn makes them lay around and eat more. It is a vicious cycle. The obese person becomes extremely depressed; in most cases wants help, but often they never get it. Being severely obese can cause heart issues and other organs are affected. Some severely obese people are prisoners of their own beds because they are unable to get up and move around because of the tremendous weight they bare.
