    Hi there, I am 30 years old and about 30kg overweight. I work with a 45 year old women who is obsessed with health and constantly makes remarks that overweight people are the way they are as they live unhealthy and eat too much fat. This turned into a huge argument and i am thinking of making a complaint against her.

      If we live unhealthy and eat fat then have her kindly explain why I am almost 80lbs overweight. I am diabetic, I also have kidney disease and as such, I follow a rigorous salt-free and low-fat diet and exercise for at least 60 min a day. And I still gain or maintain my weighty status. Why? Because the insulin I take makes the body retain any fats it encounters. It's not the "unhealthy" lifestyle or the "unhealthy" way we eat it's predisposition, genetics and luck. Ask Ms. Fit & Trim how long she would maintain her figure if she stopped exercising and ate what she wanted...
