What's with the eh... bretonnian dance, sir?

I'm sure it's been mentioned plenty in a long thread like this, but another problem to some of the "Duh just eat less!" things is that pretty often, obese people are also very depressed people, who may be eating even more as another big effect from that. Plus, and this is usually more a factor for kids/younger people especially, the kind of bullying or harassment people can get from even being mildly fat just spurs that kind of thing on much faster. As it turns out, beating people up (Not really meant physically but hey use both ways as needed) over their problems rarely helps them get on fixing those problems.

Whether that's addressed by or has anything to do with the groups in the OP or whatever I don't know, I guess I just felt like adding that it's not always a flat matter of "Just don't eat" when there are other problems making that difficult on it's own. It can just turn into a big run-around of 'I eat because I'm sad, I'm sad because I eat' real quick.
