How many fat people have you seen lose weight and keep it off forever? Not very damn many that's for sure.

Most of the really old people that I see are quite thin - is that due to the long-term health effects of being overweight meaning that they don't survive as long, or is it that extreme old age (>80) also involves a reduction in appetite?
