Thanks. I do think there are medical *factors* for many - myself included. However, there is a difference between having a medical factor that makes it slow and damn hard to drop weight and one that makes it impossible to lose weight. I don't think people intend to make an excuse but more that they really don't believe they are capable of making such a journey. I have been there, I really understand.

These days people that haven't seen me in a long time notice my weight loss when our paths cross. To a single one they will ask me 'how did you do it'? Firstly, I point out that I haven't 'done it' yet because I still have a lot to go. Then I always reply 'pretty boring really..counted calories and exercised'. Their faces usually fall waiting for me to tell them I found some miracle solution.
