I have such a different problem.
Due to my disease, it is all I can to to keep weight on. Eating is possible, but very painful, so I have no appetite. I force myself to eat because I do not want to have to return to a feeding tube. I exercise because getting my heart rate up is the only thing that relieves the constant spasming in my chest.
Prior to the onslaught on my problem, I was pretty conscious of weight issues. My dad has had two heart attacks and a quad bipass. My sister is obese and is on blood pressure meds and is morderline diabetic. There are too many things in my life I like to do in terms of being active, so it had always been a goal to keep it off.
My concern for others that are obese is their health. I completely understant that people are built differently, and there are some very healthy overweight people. Just to think of lashbear and his heart attack, anbd all the problems that can be associated with being obese.....just don't want to see anyone cash it in early over something that is for most completely preventable.
