I would strongly advise ANYONE that sincerely believes they have a medical issue that is causing their issue with weight, to keep a detailed food diary, getting everything that passes your lips on paper. If you are just over eating or eating calorie laden junk food, it will become evident with a food diary. It is a total cop out to assume every overweight person has no regard for proper nutrition and lives on junk food and garbage. There really are people with metabolic issues as well as medical issues, that contribute to weight gain........not every overweight person you encounter is a junk food addict.....your simple summary of what could be a complex medical issue ("if people ate well, they would not be overweight either") is a disdainfully simplistic and possibly incorrect summation of what could be a complex medical issue. |
I disagree also. Most ppl do over eat. And eat the wrong foods. Veggies is the only thing you can eat all you want. Americans health prove the theory already. I can go down the street and most ppl with be over weight. In my day there was only one heavy kid in class. Now seems to be only one thin one. If that many ppl have complex medical issues..then there a problem. Doubt it. Nobody is active anymore. I get all the Young men come to work. They are all lazy. PPL ime arent physical anymore. I see it. No kids playing nothing. Yeah they can blame it on metabolism. Thats a cop out imo.
