lets not forget the taking care of oneself along with pro skills. now that i help take care of a family member who ignored his health, even though he was a professional, he had a severe stroke at 56 and now must rely on others to survive. he partied the last 30 thirty years and now, well it is sad.there is not one old girlfriend that will help him now. what love?
a lot of well meaning people ignore the data and live in denial about living with obesity. pleasingly plump is understandable to come with age, but outright obesity is a conditional disease that dissuades and repel otherwise interested parties from pairing up with the abundant crowds of big woman that feed into the billion dollar diet industry and dating sites.
no offense please to those that fit the bill. my own family has it share like America on whole of obese well meaning citizens.
it is unhealthy and the medical cost are high to treat what a modest diet would cure and add years to ones life.
it is economical to be healthy. it is loving to be healthy because the one you love will care all the more for someone that takes care of their basic health. May we all live long and prosper.

cool

And may the force be with you.

that was a touching story ,i'll pray for your friend.take care
