  • which one?

    the last one especially.

  • So I've just been reading about obesity in America. In 2000 30% of American children were obese. This is the first generation of children that will die BEFORE their parents. These children are prone to many forms of cancer, kidney desease, diabetes, sleep apnea and high cholestrerol they suffer from depression, under achievement, lack of atheletic prowess and experience poor social interactions and family relationships, they also tend to be teased remorselessly at school. It is really is a sorry state of affairs that parents remain ignorant of the harm they cause their children through bad diet.

  • I was about 4 stone overweight about 4 years ago (too much beer,kebabs fish and chips). I felt knackered constantly, sweated like a beast if I did anything physical, felt shit about myself, looked awful, got knackered running up a flight of stairs.

    I would never any kids that I may have to feel soo shit about themselves, when tbh it is soo damn easy to fix and prevent.

    I love the "first generation of children that will die BEFORE their parents" - it is such a timeless classic. :)

    I have heard it used for just about everything from nuclear arms, to cigarettes, chemicals in our food to bring drinking.

    While I agree with your assessment of the broad range of effects a poor diet can have, I am less sure that it is entirely accurate to blame the parents (if that is what you are doing), I think bigger culprits are governmental legislation on food standards, advertising, lobbyists from the food industry and so on. Basically the fuckers like Cadburys who distibute teaching packs to schools that claim “chocolate is a wholesome food that tastes really good… [it] gives you energy and important nutrients that your body needs to work properly.”.

    .

    I remember how that feel, I used to hate taking the tube because even in a well-ventilated tube (sub-surface tube especially), I automatically start to get hot and proceeded to sweat as if I'm in the Gobi desert.

    it's so refreshing to be able to take the Victoria Line and not break a single droplet of sweat.

  • you still use the tube? no wonder you're so fat!

    no, on a serious note, they should make all the fat kids take swimming classes, in pools of fairy liquid, and while they're swimming, all their fat will be broken up! voila!
