    Worryingly, the rate of obesity in this country is increasing, as you will note from the below quote, almost doubled since the 1980`s. While it can be said there are conditions which procure obesity, alot of it is caused by over eating/drinking and general lazyness….
    I myself have weighed between 10 and 11 stone, i have maintained this weight now since i was about 18 years old… as a matter of interest, tell me people, what is your weight now and, if you are overweight, what is the cause of it?

    UK Obesity Statistics
    Trends in Overweight and Obesity
    About 46% of men in England and 32% of women are overweight (a body mass index of 25-30 kg/m2), and an additional 17% of men and 21% of women are obese (a body mass index of more than 30 kg/m2 ).
    Overweight and obesity increase with age. About 28% of men and 27% of women aged 16-24 are overweight or obese but 76% of men and 68% of women aged 55-64 are overweight or obese.
    Overweight and obesity are increasing. The percentage of adults who are obese has roughly doubled since the mid-1980’s.

    To follow on, what would be your ideal weight and how will you achieve it ? As we are all aware that exercise is essential to prevent obesity, what exercise do you do… go to the gym, jog, sport etc…. i myself, observe a fairly simple routine to maintain my weight and health. I do not use a gym nor take part in sports, i do what i term freestyle workouts…..this includes cycling, stretching, extreme physical workouts using a punchbag and of course, i have a weight set which i use daily…Discuss ! :!:

    I remember a similar thread to this when Gaz asked our religions etc and now he uses it constantly against some chatters, (mainly me :lol: ), now he is asking our weight after pretending he is 10-11 stone :lol: Well I for one am not telling anyone that I weight 18stone.

    I don’t want to blame everything on the Government or powers that be ……but……. it truly is a result of their own idiocy, power, Greed and desire to control that humanity has become fat blobs. Their food pyramid that they literally shoved down our throats and demanded we follow deemed incorrect!!!! ha!
    I wont go on and on about the added preservatives and additives… Longer shelf life or not…this is a direct contribution to obesity and major health issues… enhancing flavours.. unnecessary sugars and omg not to mention excess salts! :shock:
    The amount of “recommended” dietary information is overloading and overlapping.. and has us scratching our heads… “Good Carbs vs Bad Carbs… Fat or Fat free..Calorie count or No Calorie Count?
    Gary Taubes “What IF It’s All Been A Lie” touches on this. He has also has talked about how the past Thirty or so odd years of medical science (of the 50’s and 60’s especially) has been based on Bigotry
    Obesity..the cause of eating or the symptom? hmmm
    I still wont give up chocolate… no way..no hope… mmm 8) I agree with the “Simple Foods” concept.. lets go back to those days yeeeahhh. Steamed Rice anyone? :wink:

    ” constantly against some chatters ” …you really are deluded, only you not others. Let me tell you, between me and you, or you and i….. it is you that dis-respects your religion….in fact, more than anyone on this site, i would say
    As far as my weight is concerned, the heaviest i have ever been in my life, i think was 11.5 stone, maybe one day if i feel confident enough.. :lol: I will perhaps treat you all to a pic of me at my peak…. Failing that of course, it is not beyond possibility that those who need convincing personally, arrangements could be made, providing there is minimum/no cost to myself…. Theres really no need for you to give details about your weight, my imagination suffers enough just thinking about your appearance…so your actually doing me a favour, mind you, you seem to be a perfect match for that great lump of a friend of yours, you know the one with the denims on , and need i mention that T shirt…….. :)

    I’m 25 stone, I aspire to be 18 stone, I plan to do this by chopping off both my legs and cutting out the 20 bags of crisps, 40 jam doughnuts (Tesco’s doughnuts are the best) and 10 family size pork pies I have for breakfast and replacing it with a double full English.

    That should do it don’t you think?

    I thought the effort required in cutting off my legs was exercise…
