Also, I've heard it said from numerous sources that genetics account for 70% of your weight potential and only 30% is environmental - so no, it's not "just" people being lazy and eating like #### all the time, the majority of it is simply the way that they were born.
I actually am not sterotyping, I'm overly critical of fat skinny people too. I've seen people who eat like shiz, abuse their bodies, do little to no exercise and think they are healthy because they have a small or thin frame. Those people I think less of just as much as their fat lazy obese counterparts.

Hey, if it's a genunie problem I have no issue. If you're just too lazy to do anything about it I'm going to have an opinion. Same goes for drug addicts, homeless people, bums, jerks, liars, cheaters etc.
