The NHS estimates that almost a third of adults in the UK are obese, and that one in five children aged 10 to 11 are obese. That's a lot of people eating way too much fast and doing little to no exercise (we're all sitting on our big fat behinds way too much). What makes people overweight? Are we more likely to be obese if we're autistic? BBC journalist Michael Buerk announced recently that fat people should be allowed to drop dead and no longer trouble the NHS with their chubby troubles. He said, "The obese will die a decade earlier than the rest of us; see it as a selfless sacrifice in the fight against demographic imbalance, overpopulation and climate change.'" (Michael Buerk)
Ways of coping Mycal We have to consider many factors from habits formed as children if the parents don't install good habits it will most likely pass onto the children. Also medication when i was on ssri i put on 5 stone i was never fat before. My mother used to give me junk food to cheer me up when i had a hell of a day at school due to the school system. So many factors it comes down to be conscious of what you are doing if you are mindful of your actions it's easier to keep at bay. Subjectively for myself but stress is bad right now so i am struggling.
Keep your chin up, LMF.
