Very funny - but oh, so wrong! I'm so tired of hearing the overweight blamed for being overweight. There is lots and lots of evidence now to show that getting fat is caused by a problem with our hormones, insulin in particular, not because we're lazy or greedy. If you have got this problem, i.e. insulin resistance, then you gain weight when you eat the carbohydrates which are so prevelant in our modern diet. Potatoes, for instance, are full of carbs and WILL make you fat - even if you cook them in extra virgin olive oil! Sorry to be a downer, but as an ex-fatty (whose finally lost weight by ditching the carbs) I really get upset when, yet again, someone blames me for my metabolism.
