I thought you said you rarely if ever call 90' fields.

Fat bashing is popular for people with nothing better to do (example: post #1).
No fat bashing, simple observations. Oversensitive?

Those with no weight problem seem to think they have all the answers. Just stop eating. Bullsh!t. If that's all it took, then it would be easy and everyone would be skinny (how boring if we were all clones!).
I am sorry you are obese. It's because you choose to be so. If you would like to debate a cardiologist, please do so.

There are many medical reasons for retaining weight. My wife is overweight, but she eats like a bird. She has a bad knee which prevents her from any heavy exercise, but she isn't big because she eats too much, or eats the wrong food. Both of us are diabetic, which makes it doubly hard to lose the weight we already had when diagnosed.
No one claimed that medical conditions did not promote obesity but, again, diabetics overconsume, period, end of story.

Sure, there are plenty of cases of people that just sit around eating like Sherman Klump, but for every one of those, there are people (like my wife and myself) who have medical conditions which lead to weight problems.
Sorry, come back after you see the cardiologist. You're fooling yourself and you are choosing to be unhealthy when you choose not to be.
