I've no idea who 'Cliresa' is Phone, I googled it and came up with a Mexican company who provide heating and air con equipment.

 

As to the rest, it's true. They do say that whatever trend is current in the USA, becomes the norm' in the UK a year or so later. We might all be shooting the **** out of each other before too long. Although some are practicing already.

If two thirds of brits are "overweight" (based on ?) Then the average moves up which means 1 third is now underweight

 

I think the recomended ( by who?) Calorie intake is to high ,its probably from a time when people worked 18 hours a day with large hammers not much good when modern man sits behind a computer hitting keys and at home beats little buttons turning the telly to some 'reality' program!

Yes but what is the baseline ? Some hardened old guy working 18 hours a day making ships in 1899 or some guy sitting on his lazy boy eating pizza 17 hours a day ? 2000 calories based on .,.?

As to bma try that in fiji where fat is coool lol

 

Its like the statement people are living longer! Are they or is it they are not dying so young ,in victorian times the death rate in infants was 40% thats now much less so the average is changed

 

What is "perfect' vision based on? Are we all suffereing wearing specs because someone long ago got his figures wrong ?

 

Its 50/50 somethings wrong it maybe me!

I'm fat because I eat too much, drink too much and don't do enough exercise, not because of fast food or takeaways.
I've been in this house for 9 years now and have only had two takeaways in all that time - both were crap.

 

As for obesity levels, we barely make the top ten.

I am fat but i can also say hand on heart have NEVER had a takeaway in my life! I once tried a pizza in 1972 (cooked at home),one bite ensured i never had another ,

The only premade burger i have tried was in a wimpy (eaten within the place so technically not a takeaway) one bite ensured i have never had another ,never been in macdonals etc.

I dont like eating others spittal and dandruff (urine in a case or two going by youtube lol) got no control over canned food who knows the filth going on in canneries!

 

Trying to master a new breadmaker at the moment ,i blamed the old one ,then i blamed the yeast not working ,new breadmaker ,new yeast excuses gone!

 

It annoys me people lose weight by giving up crisps or cola ,i dont eat either so cannot give them up

Ah, I see phone, but you've got your wires crossed. Clarissa was the carp caught by Dick Walker back in 1952. It wasn't a 'fat guppy carp'

 

 

Nothing like this flabby gutted monstrosity

Clarissa was caught at a time when 'carp fishing' was a more sane, and less materialistic pastime.

Ken,

 

Either Cambridge is wrong or your source makes a distinction between "overweight" and "obese". Cambridge says two-thirds are overweight - your report says one-fourth are obese.

 

Maybe the difference is 2016 vs 2019

 

I blame if on the stress caused by BREXIT

BTW - I'm 14&1/4 stone and 75 inches. (I left college at 8&1/4 stone) yes!! 8&1/4
