AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Surely weight is a personal responsibility no? Well partly, but everyone is a product of their environment as well. I just think it's silly to have nearly every shop and food company dedicated to selling us infinite qualities of bad food, then somehow acting like it's a surprise that everyone's fat.

Interpolic Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 What did Barton say, I missed it? Said ugly slags are ugly slags, which is totes fair enough but he managed to fuck it up somehow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Getting people to do more exercise, eat better and drink better (people don't realise how bad alcohol can be) is the way to tackle obesity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 The lowest quality food is constantly on offer too, which doesn't help. And the healthier alternatives tend to be more expensive, which is truly fucked up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 What did Barton say, I missed it? Just that for the people voting, UKIP are the least 'ugly' as they're actually all shite. But the div packaged this on national TV as 'If I'm in a room full of ugly girls then...'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 The lowest quality food is constantly on offer too, which doesn't help. It's not one for here but the Americanisation of our supermarkets and subsequent shopping patterns is rank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 If you swapped Joey Barton with Sarah Millican a lot less used tampons would have been thrown at computer screens. He actually did fairly well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not children worried about favouritism, the state helps the people who need it, the rest are lucky enough to be able to help themselves.

Exercise is free though largely. Maccies is more expensive than a salad. I think the difference is price would be negligible if you worked it out. I just feel like people have a choice Obviously people have a choice, but it's not that simple. People are actively choosing to weigh 25 stone because they prefer it to being fit and healthy, just doesn't stack up to me. McDonalds is addictive, it's quick, it's easy, it's cheap, it's in your face on every street in the country. It's advertised incredibly widely. On Holloway Road in North London there's a McDonalds sign that says one branch is 2 minutes walk in one direction, and the other one is 30 seconds the other way. I enjoy a McDonalds FWIW, I'm just saying that the way we've allowed society and the market to become has produced the result that it would inevitably produce.

Hanshithispantz Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 It's a weird one. I've got no concept of what being fat is like but I also have never had to diet, so I don't know how difficult it is. Obviously it's hard like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Our bodies naturally want calorie intensive food, it's just that we mostly don't burn them off by sitting watching TV etc nowadays. Also drinks/alcohol should be included in the debate, not just food. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I've done that recently, starting seeing myself on photos and I knew it was time to be taking the health more seriously. Nobody says they noticed, but I was definitely not in the shape I should be. I can also see how feeling worthless and not being bothered about anything could lead you to go the other way though.

Obviously it's hard like. I was exactly the same until 25ish. The. My metabolism wasn't as good. I still ate pretty well when I was skinny as a rake tbh. Thing is as soon as I saw the warning signs I changed my eating habits instantly That's how I feel I'm going to go and I'm bricking it tbh I'm already eating a lot healthier than I was a couple of years ago like but if I balloon up I'd be inconsolable.

Interpolic Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I started getting a bit chubby so started smoking more and eating less. Really can't see any problems coming my way, I've totally cracked it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucaAltieri Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Our bodies naturally want calorie intensive food, it's just that we mostly don't burn them off by sitting watching TV etc nowadays. Also drinks/alcohol should be included in the debate, not just food. Our bodies want nutrients but we give them empty calories instead so we're never full. Just keep stuffing ourselves with nutritionally deficient shite until all the unspent sugar, carbs, and fat turn us into fat shirtless geordies.

loki679 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Alcohol does it for me. It's not just the drinking itself, it's the fact that after i've had a few i'm more likely to grab a pizza or something on the way home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
