You have a normal weight gain. It was resolved if you just watch what you eat and exercise. That is not the case for many who are over weight because of a medical problem or a medication problem. It is usually those who are a perfect weight and are very, very careful that they do not gain an ounce who point their fingers at those who are over weight. I am not over weight but I have been. It is not fun and I have a lot of compassion for those who are suffering from obesity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not fun and I have a lot of compassion for those who are suffering from obesity. I have a normal weight because I work for it. I am not pointing fingers or judging anyone. I know how bad I felt when I was overweight. I just don't believe that there are as many people who can't lose weight because of medical conditions as we are told. I have several friends who have used this excuse, but when they got a job that involved a lot of walking (Amazon Warehouse) or really tried, were able to lose weight. My big concern is that too many people use the medical excuse to not even try. To me, it's not about judging or pointing fingers. I would never do that. It's about health. If people eat whatever they like and sit all day. They kill their metabolism and then use low metabolism as an excuse for not being able to lose weight.

Sadly no one knows what happened there after? Kevin Carter (13 September 1960 – 27 July 1994) was a South African photojournalist and member of the Bang - Bang Club. He was the recipient of a Pulitzer Prize for his photographs depicting the 1993 famine in Sudan. He committed suicide at the age of 33. His story is depicted in the 2010 feature film The Bang-Bang Club,  in which he was played by Taylor Kitsch.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
