Obese persons are different and it is as if they lived on a different plane even if you do not believe that they come from another planer altogether. Those considered normal by social and medical standards can never understand the mental and emotional forces that operate inside the mind of the jolly fat fellow next door. The most unfortunate part of the system is that the expert on obesity is often a person who is a skinny skeleton and knows nothing about the real goings on inside the body and mind of a person suffering from obesity.
Sometimes, though you will come across an expert who has been obese and submitted himself to torturous methods for weight reduction. That handsome lady in the local gym for all you know might have undergone liposuction followed by costly surgery. You would never get to see the deep scars in her tissues and the deeper psychological scars that made her go through the ordeal. All these experts have one thing in common. They know how to exploit feel bad feelings of an even slightly obese person to sell their products and keep making tones of money even though their clients seldom lose weight without resorting to torturous methods described earlier.
Profession of dieting and nutrition expert is again typically American creation to make a fast buck selling products that have seldom, if at all helped anyone reduce even an ounce of body weight. It has created employment opportunities for individuals and commercial opportunities for manufacturers of diet foods and nutrition supplements. Uncle Sam is happy collecting his share of profits made by all concerned while the individual suffering from obesity keeps buying the dream of getting slimmer in ever attractive packaging year after year.
