These people are flakes but they know how to make money on it. A young female relative recently went off to a six-week, $50,000 program to cure her "food addiction." She's barely even overweight. Gimme a break.
In all fairness, there does exist a problem with the way people eat, but like always, the left turns it into a government issue, and not a personal responsibility.
I've always played sports and never been overweight, but I got hypoglycemia because I was eating so poorly. I went to stay with my aunt for a while (she's a nutritionalist) and I actually went through a week of sugar withdrawal. Shaking, headaches, irritability, the whole shebang. Its amazing how unhealthy food is in general these days. There's so much transfat, sugar and chemical in everything.
But charging people $50,000 to help them learn to eat better? That's ridiculous! And lawsuits are even more so.
