I'm currently undergoing blood tests to see what the problem is.
Just please think before you say you "hate" people.

That's really true. Some people are just built larger, which doesn't automatically mean they're not healthy. Shine, it sounds like you're doing pretty well!
I think what we're talking about is how people try to blame other people for their own actions. If, and this is a big IF, these peoples' weight problems were caused solely by McDonalds' cuisine, it's still not the restaurant's fault because everyone has a choice on whether to eat there or not. It's that simple. Same with the smokers suing tobacco companies...the surgeon general's warning has been on those wrappers for years, so all this "But, I didn't know!" stuff just doesn't wash.
