Called a Cheater



Recommended Posts

Is it cheating when a Diabetic takes insulin?

Is it cheating when an impotent man takes Viagra?

Is a prosthetic leg allowing someone to cheat at walking?

When a police officer is shot and is bleeding to death, is it cheating to give him blood to live.

The answer to all of these is a resounding no, just as getting a band is not cheating. Like all the others I have listed, it is medical technology that we have at our disposal. It is a tool and you have to work it like any other tool.

Kartman, I completely agree with you. It's a medical condition (obesity) for most of us, and should be treated as such.
