I'm just popping in to say 'hi' to everyone on this thread -- this was such a wonderful thread title that I couldn't possibly resist!
Those of you with weight issues due to medical conditions -- wow, do I feel your pain. I'm in the same boat ... and it is *so* annoying when people who really know how bad things are (like my mum!) *still* feel the need to comment on my diet, exercise, etc. ... all of which is in the good-to-excellent range, and even my calorie/fat intake is on the lower side. Grrr.
Anyhow ... thanks for the inspiring stories here in this thread. :-)
