If it was as easy as you claim, friend, no one would be obese...

If you can stay thin this easily, count your blessings...

For quite a few of us, it is not so easy. Who would chose to be fat if being thin was easy? Who in their right mind would ever choose this?

I am “pre-diabetic”, so I’d probably have to go doctor-shopping to benefit from the potential of these new wonder drugs...

Respectfully, bullshit.

I have been too overweight for too long to believe that.

It is simple mathematics. You eat fewer calories than you burn. You loose weight.

People have no will power, and they rely too much on crappy food.

I have been a type II diabetic for almost a decade. This past year I’ve been able to reduce my meds by about 80%. Another six months and I should be free.

When you are sick of feeling like crap, you will examine what you eat and how active you are. Being obese is an addiction. You need to break it.

Sorry to sound cold and unfeeling. But it’s not complicated. It’s just really hard. It easier to have a bowl of chips out of habit than it is to go for a walk.
