[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What on earth is with all the anger on this thread? She's trying to help. Yes, he needs to make the decision alone, but there are a LOT of incredibly defensive people here.[/quote] I am incredibly defensive because I have relatives who "try to help me" lose weight constantly. Their approaches were completely and totally unsuccessful; when I finally found an approach that worked for me, they hated it -- because it wasn't what they wanted me to do and I was fussed at because I lost weight, just not THEIR WAY. Could not win. And, that's the problem with people who want others to do things the way they do--they may partially be concerned because they genuinely care about their brother or the other person, and/or they could think "if Larlo only did things my way, he would not be so fat."[/quote]
