Definition of Obesity, Food Addiction and BMI
I watched a show on the TLC channel over the weekend called “I eat
33,000 calories a day.” It was a heart wrenching story of four
people’s lives who are devasted due to being very overweight and food
addiction. I realized that I could easily have been in a very similar
situation - house bound and incapacited by food. I started this diet
last year on May 1, I was 293.5 lbs. (defined as morbidly obese) -
with lots of back pain, foot pain and knee pain, aching all over, high
blood pressure and exhausted 90% of the time.
Who loves ya.
