Subject:  Re: [vocalist] OFF: Weight Control


This thread has been bugging me. Yes, there are some
people who are overweight because they eat too
much/don't exercise. However, there are many other
reasons people are overweight that aren't a product of
laziness or anything they have or haven't done -
hormonal problems, genetics, various medical
conditions, etc. (e.g. 8-10% of women suffer from a
hormonal condition that has weight gain as one of its
symptoms).

Can those of you fortunate enough to fit into the
current cultural views of what is acceptable please
stop making the others feel bad, especially when it's
something they may have no control over?

Jennifer
