Wow, what an interesting discussion.

Has anyone else noticed it the difference in the attitudes between the men and women? Interesting.

I think the bottom line is that regardless of how we got here and who or what is to blame, or contributed to or whatever, we all agree that whatever got us here, it is our responsibility to change it.

The person blind from birth or a man in a wheel chair from an accident he helped to create may both feel differently about how they got to where they are, but in the end, they both have to be responsible for making the changes necessary to live the best life they can.

That's how I feel about my weight. I might disagree with you about what happened to get me here, but I do agree that I'm the one that has to step up and fix it.
