Well, I'll try to be more uncivilized next time. I am not accusing her of lying. I take what she says at face value, but I challenge the claim that these conditions make it impossible to lose weight. If she wants to be at the weight she's at, then my advice can be safely ignored. If she is, however, interested in losing weight, then she should do her best to overcome these conditions instead of using them as an excuse to give up.
