Just as a side-note to Espionage, you should consider getting tested for Thyroid Disease--a simple blood test can tell you if it is applicable and you can use the same blood to find out about cholesterol levels. One symptom of it is an inability to lose weight, even when dieting, and sometimes even gaining weight while dieting. Normally it is targeted to an older demographic, but quite a few young people struggle with it. Even if it isn't applicable, consulting with a doctor/nutritionist can never hurt
And I didn't post this because I originally tried to post it as a comment on the actual post, because I considered it a dimension that the writers really didn't bring in. Of course, the comment got rejected and I had no way to know because I don't habitually check on her post. (</whinewhinewhine>--wait, didn't I say this wasn't going to be a rant? oops)
