Its based on the old formula of calories in and calories out. Guess how that one works. Oh, my mother had thyroid cancer and she's far from fat so you might take that excuse somewhere else. If one takes care of their body it should be A-OK. Don't people ever take responsibility anymore? There's always someone/something else to blame....

Funny story about planes. When I was in flight school I had to cancel my check ride because my examiner was too fat.... After calculating all the weight we were 150 lbs over. I had to wait a few extra days for instructor that would fit the "criteria".
