It wasn't "OK". Here's how it goes:
The boys are sent to a fat camp by their parents to lose weight. Not the best idea for some of them since their unmotivated and love junk food. But at least things were fun under the Bushkins. When Tony took over, he tortured the boys into losing weight to promote is "miracle weight loss program". Naturally, the boys rebelled, and after overthrowing Tony, they took a night to "indulge" in their junk food and just go crazy. Let 'em have their night, they've earned it. But next morning, things get serious. Pat makes a speech, telling the boys that the point of Camp Hope wasn't to torture kids into weight loss, but to motivate them to want something more. Do you want to be slow and sluggish your whole life? Do you want high cholesterol and heart problems in your old age? Do you not want the energy to do the things you love? No? Then maybe you should try exercise and eating healthy."
And that, I think, is the moral of this story. Be motivated.
