It would make us sick if we forced more down. As with all body functions, this balance does not work for many people. They feel hungry when they should not. That is why they resort to surgery and gastric bands. It is cruel to ridicule people for something they never asked for and wish they could change. |

I went out with a few of them before meeting my future husband. (Who is a ginger minger by the way) Prat Perhaps Keith's simplistic inaccurate portrayal of fat might be enhanced by pointing out how many fat people they liberated at Belson. Obesity is the morbidity bomb that faces society. Normalising it just serves to give fat people shorter lives with decreased quality. Like I said. Two hands doesn't mean two donuts. |

25 Mar 15 - 02:35 AM (#3696605) Subject: RE: BS: Need a song or infomercial From: Musket Two of the conditions Bert mentions are rare. They are also the only two that could by any stretch of the imagination lead to weight gain that cannot be regulated, and then the situation is debatable. Depression, the main culprit, can lead to weight gain through many situations but the route is the same. Eat and drink too much without working it off. Period. Anything else is pharmaceutical attempts to medicalise lifestyle. Aided and abetted by GPs failing to grasp the nettle when people present through their own fault. If they try to educate they are nanny state, if they don't, people die younger with lower quality of life. Doug. I meant you. You asked a gay man if he was homophobic despite nothing whatsoever being mentioned on the subject in this thread hitherto. A gay man with a ginger husband.

25 Mar 15 - 06:44 AM (#3696659) Subject: RE: BS: Need a song or infomercial From: Keith A of Hertford Very few people choose to be obese. None really. The obesity epidemic in Western countries results from a lifestyle conducive to to it. Fat people are not all fools to be mocked and ridiculed. Western culture gives people a lifestyle that makes many obese. As you so intelligently pointed out Musket, concentration camp culture results in people being underweight. Again, hardly a "choice." |

27 Mar 15 - 03:03 AM (#3697397) Subject: RE: BS: Need a song or infomercial From: Musket Keith A Hole of Hertford is almost correct for once. You do not choose to be fat. You do however choose the factors that lead to being fat. Eating too much of the wrong things with less exercise the diet requires. The Belson comparison is embedded in NICE guidelines for bariatric treatment by the way. My good friend Musket knows more about the guidelines than I do as he sees patients. I don't. I am not exactly thin myself and weigh 17 stone, although being 6'3", that isn't morbidly obese. Yes, I do know that my love of beer means 38" trousers. Yes I should lose a bit and don't. Yes I am aware that losing it isn't as easy as you might think. But the comments of the medical profession that I am articulating still stand. Obesity is a time bomb and we could do more about it. Not just us personally but the food industry and the politicians they influence too. I am delighted to see the commons health select committee have at last started questioning hospitals whose retail contracts have led to junk food outlets in hospitals. NHS making money out of guaranteeing future costs whilst NHS spends a few millions on health promotion. My other good friend Musket when a PCT chair (and I worked for them as a public health registrar at the time) wrote to the chairman of our local acute trust asking if, given they claim they cannot prevent fast food outlets because they contract retail through a company, how they would react if their contractor put a cigarette machine in the foyer, and what gives them the right to decide what part of health promotion they feel obliged to uphold and which not to. I still refer to his letter in a lecture I give on clinical responsibility. |
