I am amazed at the overly complicated "reasons" for weight loss given by people telling kenrock to step off. Ignoring the inconvenient truth that obesity in this country has skyrocketed over the last 30 years, and is getting worse. I don't think we had a sudden epidemic of thyroid conditions all of the sudden. As stated by Canada (our friend to the north), the primary cause is eating too much and not exercising enough. It is not overly controversial for kenrock to state that most people could rectify this by eating less and exercising more. I'm pretty sure he is not the first person to come up with this wild theory.
