>>>And even after (well, you've seen) the "Look, for my body to lose weight, that's *all* I'm doing other than working: how is this healthy or sustainable" people keep bleating the same things.<<<

They're not listening. I think they're assuming that you and others are throwing out excuses instead of actually *listening* to what you are saying. I gather that these folks have never been challenged with losing a significant amount of weight while dealing with health or time issues.

I have dealt both with asthma and having a work schedule that left me with next to no free time- for some people a rigorous exercise schedule is not feasible. And I totally get the whole losing weeks/months while dealing with breathing problems. If you can't breathe, it's hard enough just functioning. Exercise requires oxygen levels beyond what someone with asthma is capable of.

Just...gah.
