And I bet your solution to people being alcoholics is "well stop, drinking!" as if it was that simplistic.For example, when we eat, the brain is supposed to get a signal saying "ok, we're full", but some people simply do not get that signal, wheras other people, due to stress or depression etc, "comfort eat" because it creates "feel-good" chemicals.Just telling someone to "eat less" is short-sighted and unhelpful and fails to deal with possible underlying issues.

I'm sorry but EVERY weight problem is to do with gluttony. I can't stand all those lard arse fuckers that claim to have a slow metabolism or 'thyroid issues' Your body can't make fat from nowhere. The only way to get to these sickening sizes is to eat your way there.If you have a medical issue that means your body only burns 500 calories a day then only eat 500, not 3000. I worked as a gym instructor for a while in my early twenties and the amount of them is get in crying about their size, crying while I trained them then smiling while they sat and ate 3 big Mac meals afterwards!

You've only gotta watch these 'biggest loser' programs or 'a year to save my life' to see that once ya make the fat fucks do some exercise and stop shovelling their faces with shit.... They actually lose weight.... amazing isn't it? And I've no doubt that forcing alcoholics to go cold turkey would be the simple solution too.But no let's carry on giving them money to fund their habit, just incase they have to suffer without it. Let the obese people eat what they want and blame it on 'issues' just in case they have their feeling hurt. And while we're at it we can continue to pay for their 'help' with public money and see how long it takes for any of them to get better... i may be being cynical but I'm gonna guess never
When you watch news footage of the public from 25+ years ago they were nearly all slim and there wasn't an obesity crisis.

Especially sugary stuff, they can't get enough of it.

What? So it's fucking Dr Dudeofrude is it?
Are you sure you're feeling alright in your mind graham?.I hope so but that disgusting, offensive suggestion referring to WW2 would suggest otherwise.

And questioning someone's mental health for disagreeing with you is also being offensive.
Or perhaps in the 60s/70s and early 80s we didn't just sit in front of a computer screen, games system or TV screen. As a kid of the 60s we were either down the park playing football or over the woods building dens, or out for a bike ride, and there was just as many perverts and no good scum bags then as now, it just wasn't reported as much then, as there was shame in being a victim of them then.
You've already taken on the role of unquestionable expert on politics.

Oh how I loved those days. Hide and seek over an area of 10 sq miles. Hedge hopping. Tree climbing (without safety helmet or harness). I still go running at 66 over the fields and footpaths we used to frequent as nippers, and waht were once packed with kids exploring life are now devoid of youngsters during the school holidays. The nation has changed for the worse

You're getting my posts mixed up with someone else's!
As for overweight being an " illness " or genetic I would like to see some genuine proof from some reputable sources before I will believe that, I am overweight and I am not ill or bound by my genes, I am just a lazy greedy git.

Apology accepted and apology proffered
