Obesity is a lifestyle problem; but for some people like the morbidly obese, the solution is often more complex than eating less, exercising more and a healthy diet. There are individuals who struggle to lose weight even after making many lifestyle adjustments, largely due to a combination of different external factors that are out of one’s control.
