    it all comes down to making the person eat less, exercise more, or both. It’s just hidden in complex schemes and pseudo-physiology.

    Preach!

    Read it a while ago, and just read it again. Could not agree more!
  • Love it! Thanks for posting this. It baffles me how people think that the mechanisms of biochemistry operate differently in their own body.

    This is awesome. I think the majority of people on these boards believe they are different.

    Thank you for posting this, every day I see people in the forum saying how different they are and how it doesn't work to do it this way or that way. People need to be more honest with themselves and things will "magically" happen

    Bump.

    I'm sure I'm a speshul snowflake. My mother told me so.

    More people should understand what McDonald is talking about. The laws of thermodynamics rule all.
