Wow, all cop outs. Take responsibility. If you’re overweight and you eat because you feel bad about yourself, then stop and take a walk. No one shoves food down your throat, you have to put it in your mouth, chew and swallow.
I’d like to see a family photo to confirm this to be the case. Just one other thing. If it is genetic, he should know there’s no quick fix for the condition. Blowing off medical advice for sake of convenience is not just stupid, but arrognant.
* Low self-esteem… lead to eating as a way to comfort yourself.
* Emotional concerns… lead to overeating. Some people eat to calm themselves…
* Trauma… can contribute to overeating.
* Alcohol… may cause you to gain more weight around your stomach.
* Medicines or medical conditions… may also cause weight gain. Examples include having Cushing’s syndrome or hypothyroidism or taking antidepressants or corticosteroids.” WHILE CONTINUING TO EAT LIKE A HORSE.
In every instance, it’s eating and drinking that causes weight gain. Even if you are on steroids and if puffs you up, LAY OFF THE BREAD STICKS.
One could as easily say that he steals to make himself feel better. “Maybe I ought to steal a nice coat to increase my self esteem.”
I know a family of six, four of whom are way fat. If you go there for dinner you get the bread and the cheese and the huge portions of pasta, but they blame their doublebutts on “glands.” I repeat: no adult could possibly remain overweight on 1200 calories a day. But if that doesn’t work, move it down to 1100. EXERCIZE THE OL’ TRICEPS and push yerself away from the table.
Obesity is a disease. The Latin term for it is I EAT CONSTANTLY. The PDA defines it thusly: “A chronic condition caused by fists full of Doritos and guacamoli being repeatedly jammed into the patient’s pie hole unitl 2:00 AM every night. It’s the only disease that actually makes one feel better about himself.”
Slim, Bill Reed, Brian: Surely you don’t really believe your “advice” will solve Charlie Weis’s problem? After all, you have only read about him on the Internet!
Hi slim – i met a girl who is by no means fat (just a little thick), but wants to be an actress…assuming she won’t wait another 30 for hollywood to reprise the role of Hairspray again, i doubt she’ll have much luck (that’s neither here nor there, but wanted to get that off my chest.) ANYWHO…if i had to guess, i’d say she’s 5’4″ and probably 135-140 pounds..so not ridiculously overweight, but a nice chunk of change. She “claims” she has a thyroid problem. but aren’t people with thyroid problems usually EXTREMELY overweight?
Ah yes, Bill, but you’ve already solved it! Remotely, telepathically, or how?
P.S. Why don’t you post your medical/health problems? Then someone can solve them for you! Just like you solved Charlie Weis’s.

Today’s NY Times had an article that if your friend is obese, than chances are you will become obese too. (True story)
Another news reporter wrote that willpower (or lack thereof)was the number one cause of obesity, according to news reporter
Pat Riotssuck.

All this talk of food and eating is making me hungry. Let’s eat.
Pickens: no I don’t think anybody but the Pillsbury Doughboy can solve his problem. It’s just a commentary on the realities of the situation.
