As long as there are infomercials about the "revolutionary breakthrough weightloss drug" that has been "scientifically researched", there will be people who don’t realize that adequate exercise and a healthy diet are the only scientifically proven weightloss drugs out there.

I think you pretty much answered your own question. People want to be lazy, they want the easy way out. Not everyone is overweight because of that though. Their are disorders that contribute to obesity, like thyroid problems and such. But people do need to excercise and diet before they give up and put it all on doctors and scientists to help them.

I don’t want to look to blame anyone, I understand these people should know, believe, and understand that this IS the safest, most effective way to go. BUT, I also believe society has a lot to do with it. The size "2" models, the TV commercials showing "miracle" pills. People have to change there lifestyles in order for diet and exercise to work. So many people are on the go, running to grab something "quick" to eat, which 9 times out of 10, is fast food.

Actually, it has just been discovered that overweight or obese people have more of a certain kind of bacteria in their intestines than regular or thin people do. Amazing huh? Who knew?
