Yet isn't it interesting that only 5% manage to keep it off. Why is that, X????
Relapses are always common with addicts.

Yes, X-factor, Diet Coke does indeed make you fat. It spikes insulin. Insulin makes you fat.

That’s an excellent question. Made me look it up.The idea that it should be illegal for medical care insurance premiums and/or deductibles to be adjusted for actuarial risk factors (aka pre-existing conditions) is part of the problem.
Why, exactly, does it make sense to allow medical care insurance premiums to be tripled based on one’s age, yet not increased (at all) based on one’s obesity?
Now this is just one citation I’ve been able to find. I don’t recall ever being asked about my weight on any application. Now I’ll pay more attention to see if they do ask. If they do ask maybe they should tell you why they’re asking.Do Health Insurance Premiums Differ for Obese People?
Health insurance companies calculate an approximate cost they might have to bear to provide insurance to an individual. This cost depends on various factors of which age, gender, and weight are a few to name. So, yes, health insurance companiescan charge you more if you are obese or overweight and they think that your weight is a risk factor. Not all types of insurances get affected by weight, but health insurance and life insurance certainly do.

Do Obese People Have to Pay Higher Health Insurance Premiums?
Health insurance companies do not deny health insurance to obese people but there is a price to pay. To know more, read this article.www.insurancedekho.com

Why is that interesting? It’s much easier to fall back into old habits than maintain something for life.
Do you think we were lied to? They can’t deny you insurance, just charge you more.Hmm... based on your link it would appear that PPACA did not eliminate the use of pre-existing conditions (other than age and tobacco use) for setting medical care insurance premium rates.
Nothing to do with will power
Please...
They gain the weight back by not sticking to the diet and exercise routine that got it off in the first place. That is 100% a willpower issue. Once the pressure of the show subsides they slip back into their old habits. The hard part is making the behavior long term. That's the part that takes willpower.
You are 100% absolutely wrong.
My partner is a "large" person, and we don't really talk about it because they are ashamed. They have tried different things but nothing has stuck, and even they have always known the biggest problem is willpower.
How am I wrong? You're very short on details; I think you're in denial. Are you suggesting that if they had stuck to their diet and exercise plan they would have gained the weight back anyway?
If you stick to a healthy routine the weight will stay off. I am not wrong. There's not some black voodoo magic forcing these people to gain weight again. They lack the willpower to keep it off. I don't understand why people fight so hard to avoid responsibility for their own actions.
You know a lot less about this subject than you realize, to the extent you are talking through me with the points you're trying to make rather than actually having an exchange.
You must live on another planet.
Finally we are seeing eye to eye. I'm not interested in discussing this with you any further.
