I have seen way too many people that go to the gym every day for years and not lose any weight at all for that to be true in this case.

I would lean towards agreeing with this. A lot of gyms are full of people just showing up, throwing up some weight on the bench a few times and the rest is socializing, flexing in the mirror, trolling for chicks, or taking up valuable weight stations.

They are healthy enough to make it to the gym for years. Success isn't only about dropping pounds.
