gaining weight is very easy...i fractured a vertebrae last year so i was unable to do any physical activity and i gained a good 30 pounds before i even realized it. speaking as a person who struggles very hard to keep my weight down, you guys are right to a certain extent that it is the person's fault. i have a terrible metabolism, so i am very prone to gaining weight, is this my fault? no. but because of it i work extra hard to maintain my weight and keep it in control. to those of you who say you cant lose weight 'no matter what', i think you are wrong. it just takes a lot more effort for those of us with crappy metabolisms
