Scientists discovered this gene is responsible for control the movement of the arms to the mouth region. In overweight people, the gene refuses to stop working, and they keep shoveling food into their mouths.

And the gene tied to some people resembling a giant anal orifice remains undiscovered.

Gee, it must be nice to have such a holier than thou attitude.

Get off your high horse. There are people who are by clinical definition obese that eat no more and some times less than your average person and certainly well within the calorie guidelines of the medical profession.

Scientists are now discovering the facts behind what many people have been telling them for years. Genes, viruses, insulin response are all recognized medical conditions that we are just now beginning to understand how they impact the human metabolism. Even the types of food can impact the metabolism and people’s body respond differently. My wife gains weight if she eats too much meat and has to follow the food pyramid very closely. I gain weight rapidly if I follow the food pyramid because it contains too many carbohydrates. My doctor tells me that my body produces too much insulin in response to carbohydrates.

Do some people over eat and/or under exercise ... sure. But do not paint with such a wide brush as to believe that everyone is the same and can be simply treated the same way.

Spoken like a true, natural, skinny person.

while in skinny, perfect people like this poster, the gene refuses to stop making them arrogant elitist.
