Hi not sure where to post this thread.
I know there has been alot of Media coverage of the Obesity Epidemic during the last year or so. I live in Lincolnshire and I can honestly say I have never seen so many obese people in my life. We are all on this forum to do something about our weight so please do not be offended about what I say, I am aiming it at people who do nothing about it.
I see morbidly obese people who are too fat to walk around the supermarket, they have to have one of those electric scooter things. Yet their baskets are always full of microwave meals, biscuits etc basically foods to make you fat - and yes I am so nosey I do look in peoples trolleys and baskets and I cringe if they are fat and buying crap foods.
Today in Asda I saw Morbidly Obese Dad and Mum and Obese child (approx 11 years old).. Do these people not realise what they are doing to their kids? How can they be so ignorant?
When I was at school we maybe had 1 fat kid in the class now they are everywhere.
I appreciate people can gain weight if they have an illness, are on medication etc but this seems like such an easy excuse for alot of people.
Where were the fat people during the rationing during the war? Exactly there werent any because the couldnt over eat.
I have an underactive thyroid which is always a good excuse for some however I have had this problem for years and used to be a size 10 weighing 9.5 stone. I have only put on weight through eating too much of the wrong food and not enough exercising - that has now changed.
I personally think Obese people should not get treatment on the NHS if their illness is proved to be related to their weight. Harsh as it sounds but people hate paying out money and it might make people think.
All this 'im too busy' is a load of rubbish. We are all in control of our lives and if people havent got enough time it is because they do not make enough time or they are unorganised.
Rant over
