Don't we already do that here in the US?
Giving fat people a reason not to lose weight...
I lost 50 lbs in the last 18 months...
Pretty simple plan...
Stop eating the crap they call food and stop opening your pie hole stuffing food into it...
Unbelievably that works...!
Heck, they get all the good parking spaces. I’m surprised they don’t (yet) get to drive in diamond lanes.
What happens when you retire?
I didn't make up those statistics, by the way. They come from Weight Watchers themselves. Look it up, if you want.
I put on 40 pounds from the stress of illness and death in family over six years and I am FINALLY getting back to some semblance of normality.
Problem: as one ages, it IS more difficult to shed weight. THAT also will be a problem for those who DON'T take the weight off before they turn "old," that is, over sixty. It DOES get "less easy" as the years roll by.
:o)Don't believe me? That's okay with me. I was in the fitness business for 44 years, but what do I know?
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Lol. There ARE always exceptions, of course. And leave it to a FReeper to point that out, as if I didn't know it.
You must still be young, that is, under 65. :o)
Maybe a change in the chemicals and processes used in food production could be changed. There are 1600 things not allowed in food consumed in Europe....we have the highest amount of fat people....time for some common sense.
Sugar is used in everything here, because there aren’t limits to how much can be put in foods, or drinks.
The low fat diet does not work and actually causes diabetes, yet it is promoted as the heart diet.
When the USA gets the truth, there will be less fat people.
There are other countries whose diets are much better and less heart disease, diabetes, and should be promoted here.
People can buy better food, but with the cost of it now, that isn’t going to happen.
