I've had weight problems all my life.

Various times I've shed amounts up to six stones.

In the last couple of years I started getting angina.

Everybody (medical staff included) treated me like I was Desperate Dan off to drink another fifty pints of Guinness and wolf down a few dozen cow pies. Some still do.

Only when my arteries proved to be totally clear did they put radio active isotopes into my bloodstream and it revealed that I had an abnormally sited artery. It runs into the wrong side of my heart, and because of this my heart doesn't get a proper blood supply.

So a lifetime of lethargy and physical inactivity was explained at a stroke. And because I'm inactive, I burn up less calories than you self righteous wiry bastards. All those abusive PE teachers provided with an explanantion why some enormous huge fat kids could run faster than me - just like that.

I'm willing to bet there are simple explanantions for half the overweight people like me. Basically its easier to screw us up and abuse us and exploit us with a 'diet industry'.
