ha ha! i haven't read the article but the fact it is taken from the
daily mail says it all! pretty much everything printed in the daily
mail is well known to be absolute crap, find something from the
guardian or the Times and i may well read but i would not put my eyes
through the pain of reading anything from the daily mail, that paper
is not even good enough of lining my cats litter tray with, I would
rather read the Sun in prefernce to the daily Mail


I don't know anything about the "Daily Mail". but all you have to do is
google "BMI by country" or some such thing and you will find many web sites
that address the problem of obesity in both GB and the US as well as many
other countries.....Rest assured, it is not a problem peculiar to the
US.....

Why are you so hung up on this subject? - Are you having a personal problem
with body fat? If so, there are any number of places where you can get help.
If I were younger as you apparently are, I would join a health club where I
could swim and use their workout equipment.........


believe me, I have the opposite problem right now, but it has to be
said I do find fat people rather offensive to the eye and a massive
drain onthe NHS. An MP not so long ago suggested putting extra taxes
on 'fatty' foods, mcdonalds etc in order to help pay for thr NHS
services that fat *******s use so much of, kind of inthe same way that
cigarettes are taxed in order to prop up our health service. don't
think it went through unfortunately, damn good idea though.

Thanks for being the poster child for the English bigot - ignorant and

Is it not for kings to have milk and butter and kine?
Move up to royalty and stop your whining.

tick tick tick, better hurry up, father time is no respecter of persons

you're frustration is good, use it as a stepping stone, play on it,
focus it's energy on... doing what you want to do.

Don't know yet? I bet you do, and you should listen with your heart.

For you, you should not stumble bookie, I don't mean to suggest that you
look down, but take your time and don't stumble.

Don't bother to answer this. Whatever being a pill is, it can't be worse
than being a Guardian reader.



What is a Guardian?

She's referring to the Guardian, formerly the Manchester Guardian, at one
time an organ of left-wing politics but these days just another
newspaper. It is available on-line.

Alison why do you sneer at the Guardian?

LOL! My thoughts exactly. I"ve never seen anyone spend so much time
targeting their specific object of disdain. The shabby superiority
complex is alive and well, I guess. To each his own, I suppose.
I never think about the shortcomings of the people of other countries.
I've got better things to think about.

Sherry

Yeah....Even if we Americans are the fattest pigs on earth, what could I do
about it? - All I can be held responsible for is my own weight, and even
that is hard to control when you are 71, diabetic, and arthritic.....
The days when I could run around the block a couple of times are long
gone.........The best I can do today is limp down to the ice cream
store....:^)

A "good idea" if you are a socialist, and want the government to take
responsibility for everything, and use the taxpayer's money to do it. I
would let people take care of their own health and eat as much as they damn
well please, and/or as much as they could afford to pay for. Why should I
either pay for their health, or use that as an excuse to control their life
style?
I call these kinds of laws "padded cell laws". Here in the US, you don't
even have to be spending the taxpayers money to get those laws on the books.
Just the fact that our insurance rates go up is their excuse to control our
lives.....Pretty soon, they will make a law that puts everyone in a padded
cell for their entire lives, just so our insurance rates will stay
low.....Of course, insurance doesn't cover insanity, so it won't matter if
everyone goes bonkers.......

That's what silo's are for, you're talking about mal-nourishment. They
keep eating.. their bodies grope for nourishment. Like anyone gives 2
craps.
