Hey Ginger,
Like you, I could not believe what I was reading and hearing about this. I couldn't help but think of all the doctors I've been to through the years who were overweight themselves and yet had the nerve to tell me I needed to lose weight. Sheesh!!! Weight has nothing to do with your brain!!!

To me she looks like a beautiful, healthy woman....Unless you have had a weight problem, I feel you cannot understand it. Try as you might to empathize, you cannot do it. You have to have walked in the shoes yourself.
It continues to be the "if you only had willpower", well they don't understand. I don't wish a weight problem on the worst person I know. People think we are weak and lazy but for the past three and a half years I have worked harder than mort skinny people trying to change my weight by watching my carbs and exercising but only so much would come off and then I was stuck. I will put my will power up against the next person's.
What can I say...but it is the media.....enough said.

Believe me I do understand....I was over weight since age 6 and on a diet since 11. I dieted myself to 400 plus pounds....I never had a full switch until after I had surgery. Everyone else knew when they were full and would stop eating. I felt like I was starving to death every time I would diet!
Now I don't diet, I eat healthy, and exercise. I don't eat bread, rice, pasta, potatoes or sugar and I do not feel deprived at all. I feel satisfied!
If average size people could only understand, a person is not obese because they are lazy as you said.....there is so much more to it than that!
Hugs,
Ginger
