It isn't just what they eat though, Spitfire, it is the quantity as well - add to that the lack of exercise and there you have obesity. All the education and taxation in the world will not help those who do not want to be helped.Re: Obesity
Just seen the news reel again, it is not new taxation but the redirection of existing VAT to local councils. Yes ST, you don't need statistics, when you walk down the High Street, and observe the body shape of folks, it would seem over nutrition and sedate lifestyle is leading to a new visible killer.Re: Obesity
Why people are obese is IMO a very personal thing, no one idea will fix it for everyone.Re: Obesity
The Obesity problem is always dangerous ground on forums!Re: Obesity
I'm going to disagree on the point of cost and suggest that it can be just as cheap to eat healthy food as unhealthy. The difference I find is that I'm getting to enjoy the better things in life and cost is not always the priority.Re: Obesity
Well I can only say I can't shop as cheaply healthily as I did when I was buying bread and making cakes etc, doughnuts 9p each collected on a Friday night would feed us all weekend, I used to spend £20 a week on cheap carbs, now I spend almost that just on vegetables add into the mix protein and well that doubles what I used to spend.Re: Obesity
I am not a big eater, don't like the feeling of being full.Re: Obesity
