Britain are a load of Fatties!

I was just watching a utube video all about obesity in the USA and wondered how many people are obese here in the UK.
Well according to one Doctor ,we are 50% overweight and 25% Obese.
I assume the 25% are half of the 50% already mentioned but who knows?

I can believe it. Walk down any street in the UK and you will see people who are far too heavy, out and about.
Some are on motorized invalid carriages ,I suppose because their joints cant take it any more.

It isn't really a surprise. The healthy food options are expensive.
You can buy a bag of frozen chips(French fries) for less than the cost of the same weight in potatoes and they are already peeled and cut.
Why buy whole fish at £8 a piece when you can get shaped fish already breaded or battered for £1-£3?
Fruit is silly prices too. Apples are about £1-£2 for 5 or 6. A cheap sugary pudding is maybe 25p or less.
Green vegetables are a luxury.

A lot of people are feeding themselves absolute garbage. I think their thinking is,calories in ,not hungry!
It isn't true though. Our bodies are very good at knowing when we don't have enough of something and so while a person may have a huge plate of food, if there are things we need to survive that are not on the plate, our bodies still want them.

When I was in school, the obese kids were the bullied kids. There weren't many of them. Maybe 2 in a group of 200(boys and girls).  I can still remember the name of the girl from Infants school.
