I don't think Suzi was being "judgmental" by stating the naked, factual reality to people here who don't get it: that it's painful for a healthcare provider to watch their patients slowly, wretchedly killing themselves with over-eating, just as it is painful to watch a person kill themselves with booze or narcotics or anorexia.

With the morbidly obese people I've known/observed, their approach to food and romancing it seems more rooted in a mental/psychological/psychiatric problem than in a physiological one.
