It's a public health crisis - that's not going to go away any time soon. <br/><br/>As a former obese person, I do understand shat it's like to be an overeater and have trouble eating healthfully. But if you step out and look at it from a societal perspective, it's irresponsible to not take care of yourself and your children. I agree with Jonathan.

In addition, I also think that two breakfast sandwiches and hash browns is a little excessive. One would be plenty. <br/><br/>I think we're in a society where it seems like a little is not enough, even when it is. We live in a nation where there is a television show that boasts the Top 10 Places to Pig Out. Really? THAT is what our society needs? To promote that? <br/><br/>Clearly this is an issue that strikes a chord with me. Thank you, Dr. Dolgroff, for bringing these issues into a brighter light. I agree with the previous poster.

While we shouldn't judge too harshly, it is not merely the health aspect that bugs me; it's also the cost aspect. Insulin shots are not free and who ends up paying for them? There are good odds that the shots are covered by either a group insurance policy or the government. Thus, it's possible that numerous people who try to live healthily are going to see their premiums rise because this couple can't live without McDonald's. Again, I don't want to appear too judgmental, but no man is an island and that applies to health choices as well. Thanks for sharing this story, although it did raise my blood pressure a bit!
