GK Nyambura fires back at fan who blamed obesity on laziness
By Paulette Mboga, September 26, 2026Content creator GK Nyambura has called out a fan who linked obesity to laziness during a discussion about weight loss and the use of GLP1 medication.
Nyambura said the choice of words was an issue and argued that not every obese person can simply work out and lose weight.
The discussion began after Nyambura commented on a conversation involving Martina and Ajib on their podcast. She said the two had been receiving criticism over the issue before sharing her thoughts on Martina’s comments about using GLP1 medication.
“I saw Martina and Ajib catching smoke for these poor girls. So Martina said taking a GLP1 when she’s not obese is not worth it,” GK Nyambura said on Friday, September 25, 2026.
Nyambura then invited people to share their thoughts on the subject while asking for a respectful discussion. She described it as an open discussion before a response from one person shifted the conversation to the issue of laziness.
Nyambura explains her position
A fan responded to Nyambura’s question by suggesting that GLP1 medication could not solve what they described as laziness. The comment prompted Nyambura to explain why she felt the word was not appropriate when discussing obesity and weight loss.
“I don’t think GLP1 can fix your situationship with laziness,” the fan responded.
Nyambura said the person had missed the point she was making. She explained that using the word laziness when discussing obesity could create an issue because weight regulation is affected by different factors.
“I think you’re missing the point. When you use words like laziness, it becomes an issue,” GK Nyambura said.
She went on to say that people should do more research before making assumptions about how obese people can lose weight. According to Nyambura, some people cannot simply work out and lose weight because different physiological factors affect how their bodies regulate weight.
“If you do the littlest bit of research, you will understand that not every obese person can just work out and lose the weight. Different physiological factors affect weight regulation,” GK Nyambura said.
Nyambura later admitted that she was tired of explaining her position and said she did not want to continue the exchange. She also asked the person not to respond to the question box as she felt too irritated to respond objectively.
“I’m actually tired of explaining; never mind. Bc now I want to block you. Don’t respond to that question box. I’m too irritable to respond objectively,” GK Nyambura said.
