Re: Sorry for getting all unfunnybusiness...
There is zero evidence that long term, healthy weight loss is possible for most people. Sure, it works for some, but the whole, "Oh, those other people are just doing it wrong" is practically victim blaming and 100% bullshit. Weight loss fail because bodies have a set weight point they want to stay at, and for most people the only way to lose weight is to bully your body into unhealthiness.
Seriously, why is that so hard? Why does everyone cling to anecdata when there is plenty of evidence otherwise? Good for your brother, he's in the 3% of people who do lose weight.
