Look, I do NOT like anything about the situation with Shannon and you grossly overestimate the numbers of "everyone". I can tell when people lie when they write and I don't respect anybody that writes here or anywhere under an "anonymous" name. However - the intent of this article is to try to inform people about emerging research and understanding of what is harming everyone's health. So I'm going to replace this with a couple of paragraphs about well-known celebrity weight loss stories - and how those turned out, because the commercial weight loss programs don't work due to factual reasons I outlined in this article.
