Jane, I hope you don't think I was insinuating that each and every fat person could loose oodles of weight if they only tried. I do realize there are some that can't lose *any* weight, despite eating the healthiest of food plans (is that a better word than "diet"?) and exercising etc.

Everyone is different and some can lose weight, others can't. I'm just sick of the SA crap that *nobody* can.

BTW, may I caution you a bit about "low fat" foods? Companies substitute sugar for the fat in a lot of cases (since the fat gives the food flavour, they have to substitute something tasty for it), so read your labels! That's something I never knew until recently.


I think the best thing we can do is to do what *we* can live with, not what anyone else expects us to. I highly agree with you that people who choose to do nothing should still be treated with respect and minus discrimination.



Rosie
