Re: Obesity
I'd like to see someone try and remove me from my chip butties or step between me and a plate of food - they'd get crushed in the rush!!!Re: Obesity
Rather oddly I find my appetite has just fallen away since packing in running. As long as I make sure I get all the necessary vitamins and minerals I think I will quite happily exist on quite low calories.Re: Obesity
Re: Obesity
What a very complex topic!! - different socio-economic groups - different income levels for survival - the big sugar companies who push their sugars into everything - good eating is not just an individual thing it's bigger than that and involves governments and listening to the researchers findings!Re: Obesity
When I went to the GP in January for my annual MOT I was horrified to be told that I was 4 stone over the recommended weight for my height. Since then I have shed 2 stone and am hoping the rest will soon follow - but - it is my responsibility to make sure that it does. Not been on a diet as such - just eaten sensibly, reducing portion size and cutting out crisps and biscuits, as my GP advised. Now I am no saint and could not stick to a diet if you paid me - but I really wanted to lose the weight - and that is the whole point.Re: Obesity
Rather surprisingly, when it comes to Obesity the UK is behind Iceland and Malta of all places, and that does surprise me because my last experiences of the Maltese cost of living shocked me as it is really quite expensive there!Re: Obesity
I think a person has to want to lose the weight but sometimes lack the motivation to do so. Also there are a great many people around who don't really know much about calories and how many they should be having daily or the calories each plate of food contains.
