xepherys said some things in a harsh tone, but the underlying truth is exact. Way too many people subscribe to the hormone/thyroid myth fantasy that excuses their slovenly habits.
Most fat Americans are fat because they are lazy and lack mental discipline that's needed to fix the problem. If you make eating less and exercising a priority and work hard at it, your weight will go down. I think where most people fail is the calorie expenditure part of the equation. They'll do anything to avoid vigorous physical activity. Face it, if you live life going from the couch to the SUV, to work, Mcdonalds and back home to the couch you are probably going to be fat.
