So true. My 62 year old Dutch cousin - 2 artificial hips, 2 artificial knees - is currently in hospital due to a botched surgery to free a trapped nerve. She's very overweight and expects the surgeries to be miraculous without understanding how her lifestyle and choices help create this disaster.

Sigh.

Unfortunately, she's not the only person that will be facing the consequences of the lifestyle and choices. It directly or indirectly impact the lives of those around her. It is important to always caution family members over their lifestyle choices. I did with my sister and here we are.

sigh Caution about the health consequences of obesity is something few overweight people want to hear.
