I read those studies, they were all done by fat doctors.

Morbid Obesity is the same as smoking, you choose to do it.

There is NO genetic predisposition forcing one to eat three Big Mac's, two Biggie Fires and a diet Coke.

One out of one million might have a TRUE medical problem relating to overeating, the rest are just pigs.

But don't take my word on it, just do some traveling and visit some countries where people work hard and don't over eat.
