One of the horrors of obesity is that once it takes hold it is fiendishly difficult to reverse. The overweight often find it impossible to avoid eating to excess, and so the kilos continue to pile on. Judgmental observers of this pattern might simply blame lack of willpower--and it is certainly true that willpower in prodigious quantities is needed to climb back up the slope to svelteness. But understanding why that slope is so slippery might help the sinner who wishes to repent, and such understanding may have come a little closer this week with the publication in Cell Metabolism of a study by Jens Bruning, of the Max Planck Institute for Neurological Research in Cologne, and his colleagues.
