"I think its the fact that we dont know what we are eating is why the uk has such a high percentage of obesity"
i'd agree with that.
also the fact that junk food is so cheap -just look at the likes of poundland,bm,etc i used to think nothing of eating a couple of (big) milka bars at lunchtime but i'd not even try calculating that now. when i think about earlier this year, i probably was just living on junkfood for a few weeks on end. but i'd say booze is probably my major downfall, and again - the offers on it (esp leading up to xmas) can be mental.this year however i'm not going to be doing my usual drinkathon around the xmas period,it just isn't worth it.
