I'm not lumping anyone, or diagnosing because of my own problems. Aren't we all here for the same reason? I'm sorry, but how can you let an extra 100 or more lbs. "catch up" with you and not have a problem? I'm simply stating facts here.


By saying people who let 100 lbs "catch up" with them has "a problem" you ARE lumping us all together. Yep, we have "a problem", but for many of us, it's not the SAME problem.

You've said yourself, you are/were addicted to food and never got over 150 lbs.. By your own logic, weight isn't an indicator of addiction, yet you turn around and say weight IS an indicator of addiction if you're fat.

Addiction is real, it doesn't discriminate by size, age, gender, race. Just because a person is fat, you can't just say they're an addict without understanding their INDIVIDUAL case.
