　　He acknowledged that many doctors tend to be not optimistic.

　　“Part of this is that there's this common belief, and doctors are burdened by it, too, that overweight people are weak-willed and just don’t have any willpower and are self璱ndulgent and all that business,b” he said. “If you think that way, you’re not going to spend time having a productive conversation.”
