Macgawd, let’s chat again after you develop an endocrine disorder like hypothyroidism, or after you have been taking a drug like Zyprexa (notorious for causing weight gain and diabetes) for five years to manage schizophrenia. I think you’ll find your dismissive attitude a lot harder to justify at that point.
DDG, I basically agree with you. Most people who have weight issues can manage them through lifestyle changes, if they choose to do so. My quibble is with the absolutists who make blanket statements that *everyone* who is overweight is simply too lazy and undisciplined to change their habits. That simply isn’t true.
