$30,000 surgery …
$30,000 surgery isn’t necessary. There are many people who belong to SPARKPEOPLE (dot)com and have lost the weight and have kept a healthy lifestyle. That woman could have done biking, walking, etc. and lost the weight, if she’d stopped eating junk food, and huge portions. Most of which is emotional eating, especially at night.

I don’t know if I’d agree with –completely– avoidable, but it is avoidable in many instances. Some people DO have genetic predispositions and environmental factors that drive them toward obesity. I was somewhere in the middle on that. This is why I call it a disease, such as alcoholism or drug addiction.

Half of America hates themselves because they ARE fat. The other half hates themselves no matter how skinny they are.

Good case here… but bad presentation of statistics at the end in my opinion. Would like to know in a quit slide the actual risk for obeses in that study and the risk for treated obeses - as well as p value maybe. Well, I understand it’s a vulgarization show but yet…

Obesity is a disgusting disease! And I speak as a former obese person. My life was ruined in many ways besides health, including my self-esteem and job prospects. I have lost 80 pounds and have 40 more to go. I strongly suggest everyone to take charge of your life. You CAN do it, despite multiple previous fails to lose weight.
