She has my sympathy. I had mobility issues for a year after my second baby and it made it damned near impossible to stay a healthy weight. Yes, I could have reduced my calories more, of course, but when you're ravenously hungry because you're breastfeeding and you don't get any time to yourself due to little ones, and you can't do any exercise and you're absolutely exhausted, it is really difficult to keep on track with all the will power and effort that goes into healthy eating and weight loss.
The modern world makes it far too easy to be overweight. Ultimately the responsibility still lies with the individual, of course, but it stands to reason that the easier it is to be fat, the more people will get fat.
Obese people riding around on scooters really annoys me..
