I'm not overweight but for some reason I totally identify with people who are, probably because I had all sorts of trouble with the subject in highschool. It really hits a nerve for me. Rrrr. It doesn't matter if you're not 'fat' when the media and your peers still tell you that you are, and you believe it.
When I went to LA I was totally bowled over by all the carb-counting Atkins-toting CRAP that got spewed at us everywhere we went. I couldn't believe that seemingly intelligent people would buy into that horsepucky. Who needs a liver? BE THIN OMG. It's the number one most importantest thing in the entire world. Get real.
You're right: eat your veggies and move and breathe. Everything else is just somebody else trying to make you feel like shit. It's just another lie they tell you to get to you conform, and buy, buy, buy.
