Full title: It's not easy being overweight and on benefits, says 25 stone mother-of-two who wants MORE money from the government to help her diet

[FrdmLvr]

25 stone equals 350 lbs!!!!!

[VRWC For Truth]

You don’t need to go to a gym to lose weight. Go for a walk. It’s free.

[Pearls Before Swine]

At 14 pounds per stone, she’s a big ‘un... 350 pounds if I did the multiplication right.

[lump in the melting pot]

Kill two birds with one stone, you heifer. Walk down to the farmers’ market.

‘I tried swimming but it cost £22 a month and it meant I had to cut back on my favourite pizza and Chinese takeaways.’

I don’t know what to say. People of her weight must need to eat a lot just to “maintain”.

I think I know what her problem is...lol

[maine-iac7]

she can afford hair dye and tattoos - those tats would’ve bought a lot of fruits and veggies -

and she want to prove to her kids that she can do it herself - than DO IT yourself!

[Tax-chick]

Stories of this sort serve to focus the public ire on a randomly chosen individual, rather than on the system with its perverse incentives.

NHS employees who do nothing but try to keep treatments away from really sick people cost a whole heck of a lot more than this woman does ... but they’re under the radar, even if they are also fat.

Damn! Just when I thought I couldn’t be Semmens’ed anymore, he picks up a new ‘net ID as the Daily Mail.

He’s too clever for me.

Doesn’t have money to buy healthy food, but does have money for multiple tats. Priorities...

[TomGuy]

my favourite pizza

Carb pie.

No wonder she can't lose weight. Maybe if she started walking to get the pizza instead of having it delivered, she would do a Jarod and lose a few waist sizes.

[samtheman]

Pizza and chinese food are more expensive than supermarket food. She’s a fat lying thief.

[YHAOS]

Apparently her very large bulk hasn’t discouraged her lovers so far.

[rcofdayton]

I am sick and tired of people saying “I can’t afford the healthy food.” BS, that is untrue. Apples and oranges, etc are less expensive than junk food. Even if she is correct there is still an easy and inexpensive solution. Eat less! She is an addict.

[Dallas59]

Portions!

It is comforting to know the we in the US are not the only ones stuck with parasites like this.

[sasquatch]

Save a lot of money; stop eating for a week/month.

[NoLibZone]

She is correct.

Her life decisions make her life difficult.
