I think it is wonderful how people who have never been 420 + lbs know exactly what it is like and can tell thoes that have been there exactly how to loose the weight.
I congratulate everyone commenting for never being in that situation. It is horrible to watch for everyone. Yes you can move more, but what about when the weight causes you back problems, knee problems, vascualr problems, etc. And what about the multitude of doctors that descriminate against you just because you're obese. So they won't help you the way they will help someone that is not obese.
It is a great idea, the slow weight loss. It works very well for most. But when you are very close to having a heart attack or you could loose a leg because your veins are so tight slow weight loss is not an option.
So again I say, it is wonderful for thoes that have never been there to know exactly what it is like and know exactly how to fix it.
