The majority of overweight people I see day to day are young kids right up to middle age. And the attitude of girls that they are big and beautiful and proud.....I'm half/half with that. Body confidence is great but I really feel that society has tipped the scales too far and being healthy and trying to voice it is being labelled as fat bashing. I don't advocate being stick thin either.

Since hitting 50 I've become a bit rolypoly and for someone has always been active and whose only weight problem was that she didn't conform to overly thin magazine ideals, I am surprised how quickly it came on and how very hard it is to shift.
Middle age spread...... can we call that a medical condition?

Watch 'the men who made us fat'......three episodes that cover the growth of fast food to the watering down of labelling laws and non fat low fat foods that are just as fatty.
There are stories from health advisors who wereyelled at by food company heads whenever they were invited to meetings for costing these companies money.
In the UK their pollies are too close to said fatty food makers and the reason obesity is a problem there.....according to the show.
Yes you need to be the one to control what you eat, but you should not be mislead.
There is a bill to be debated about 5 star ratings on healthyness. The UK had a traffic light system to rate sugar/fat/carbs and that was defeated by lobbyists.
Some companies voluntarily use it, most like coke and cadbury and nestle do noy.

I went shopping today and noticed the rather large number of obese people in the supermarket and I wondered "why is it so" until I looked their shopping trolleys and saw what they bought.
I suppose they think it was food, but it really wasn't. it was highly processed, high-sugar, high-fat junk food. Or at least a lot of it was.
And then I stopped wondering.
