Nobody forces you to eat it .

It's the ugly American way. Eat whatever pleases you...as the pounds add up. Labels are very misleading. I looked at "natural" peanut butter with blueberries. There was hardly anything natural about it and lots of sugar. Heart Smart cereal is full of sugar and almost everything has got High Fructose Corn Syrup, which is worse than sugar. Read labels and don't eat in buffets. I try to share restaurant dinners with my partner. The dinner for one is usually enough for two.

It's really hard not to be revolted by the amount of obese people walking around. They're like diseases waiting to happen.

I'm a 44 yr. old woman. 5'4" 112 lbs. I don't consume a whole piece of cheesecake anymore. I'm not dumb. I watch what I eat. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that it'll make you FAT!!!!!

It is impossible to have dessert anymore, actually for me, it's impossible to have anything anymore. The sugar and carbs they put in everything nowadays makes it so you can't have much of anything. Everyone loses and gains weight differently, my husband loses 10 lbs just by thinking about going on a diet. Me, 4 years after baby, still am 30 lbs heavier than my goal weight of 120. I have learned that if I have no breakfast, a light lunch and a small dinner every night, I will gain 5 lbs a month. After trying so many different diets, I have learned that the only way for me to actually lose any weight is the special k diet. Cereal for breakfast, lowfat yogurt for lunch and a small salad with a half a grilled chicken cutlet for dinner and finally the lbs are slowly coming off. Everyone tells me about how I'm not supposed to do that, I'm supposed to cut portions or my body won't lose weight, but it just doesn't happen for me. Maybe one day I'll lose it all and will be able to consider eating a sandwich once a week and maybe even pasta once a month, who knows? But the crap they put in food now is just terrible, has anyone noticed how much sugars and carbs and calories are in just plain apple or orange juice? It's no wonder the country is overweight, you can't have anything anymore. For those who complain about all the fat people around, I agree it's not pleasant to look at but it is true that some people really do try, but some people lose weight easily and for others it's very hard. I'm not even significantly overweight, just enough to wound my vanity and I find that for my body it's unbelievably hard. It is nice to have cheesecake sometimes, but jeez, that's over a days calories and a month worth of sugar for me.

Well said, Joya! I'm really sick of seeing self-righteous 'fit' people talking down on those who don't fit the model of physical fitness that has been cast by the mainstream media and the 'fitness' industry. The mere fact that some people don't meet some arbitrary fintness standard doesn't make them the scum that some would believe they are. Hey, I'm in great shape...After all, round is a shape too!

Who ever said "It's really hard not to be revolted by the amount of obese people walking around."

You are truly your atypical "Ugly American."

The calories and fat aren't as bad as the sugar. They didn't mention how many grams of sugar was included. Stupid people try to stay away from fat when sugar is the real killer. The think they're eating healthy when they eat a low-fat food, but they just get fat and unhealthy.

If you exercise enough, the extra calories really don't matter. When I had 2-hour basketball practice everyday followed by 2 hour cheer practice, I ate whatever I wanted. Therefore, if you want to eat the cheescake, work out enough to compensate for it.

Now that I don't have sports anymore, I'll share my meal and cheesecake with a friend and don't feel bad. Fewer calories, same satisfaction without the temptation of eating the whole slice. Plus I don't feel overly full.

You can eat a decent meal if you watch yourself and still lose weight if you follow WeightWatchers Point system. I do WW online. I gained a lot of weight on a medication several years ago and I was very frustrated, having always been small. It took me almost a year, but I lost 40 pounds with WW. It was relatively painless once I got used to it. I also have to watch sugar and carbs, as I am diabetic, too. I do not consume the "extra" 35 points you are allowed per week. If I did I would never lose anything. it's slow, but it is sure and no fad diet.
