"Quite often naturally slim people also don't think they have to watch what they eat and exercise! " Alternatively, the reason they aren’t hugely overweight and unhealthy is because they do watch what they eat and take appropriate regular exercise | |||

"What isn't so widely known is that our adipose tissue has a cut off filter. This means once this sink is full, it starts surrounding the organs and filling up your vascular system. This filter depends on ethnicity, gender, age, genes, and diet composition. " Are you an expert in such matters? | |||

"I feel a slim bashing thread coming on. To the best of my knowledge I feel healthy because I eat a varied but low fat diet with plenty of fruit and veg, and live an outdoor active lifestyle. No smoking or drugs either. This is not about being smug, or looking down on anyone else. It’s about recognising that we all have to take responsibility for the choices we make. Your health is pretty important. Why neglect it when you already know what to do.." Not bashing any size at all. Just giving information that if you over eat, your body dictates how you will look - kind of "there, but for the grace of god go I". | |||

"To be honest there is so much information constantly being aimed at us about what we should and shouldn't do to remain healthy that I'm innured to it. Every time a new thing comes up that I should or shouldn't be doing I almost shrug my shoulders and say "next!". I eat in moderation, rarely drink, don't smoke, swim two or three times a week and walk miles. Yet I daily breathe in carbon monoxide from traffic pollution and ingest god knows what in my food but can do little or nothing about that." Totally agree. | |||

"I feel i need to step down a little here im not attacking you personally it's the institution of "guilt" we have become for every "selfish" action we are bombarded with "penance". We ritually admonish, belittle and "educate" those who don't register to the current standards. There is a reason steroid use and its alter egos have been rising in recent years, there is a reason why more young men than ever are commiting suicide there is a reason more and more young people are seeking plastic surgery or even just struggling with there mental health and self esteem. Topics such as this are just the tip of a hugely awful iceberg we all seem to be jumping up and down on. I honestly can't remember the last conversation i had where a new "fad" diet wasn't brought up when waiting to pick my little people up it genuinely makes me sad.
I should add i am now and always have been happy in my skin i just feel for those who can't/won't rally against those trying to change them for "better" in there eyes. "Change has to come from the individual. Factual information is just one component of that change. In fact, directing change is a sure fire way of increasing resistance to change. | |||

"Does it matter? When I was young still at school I used to work on a farm, the chemical exposure gave me cancer, which stayed passive until I was in my 40's when it switched to active and needed treatment with a shed load of steroids which gave me 3 heart attacks in a few weeks. 5 years later a side effect of the original chemo kicked in, which was worse cancer, more chemo, bone marrow transplant shed loads of steroids. Anything I ate, drank, smoked. Any exercise I did would not change a thing, I got screwed at about 14 years old because I didn't wear a face mask. Live till you die, and don't stop too soon. "It will matter to some but not others. | |||

"I know I'm a lot healthier now I'm slimmer: 1. because I now watch what I eat 2. Because I lost shit loads of weight so the stress on my body is less 3. I now partake in exercise which I struggled to do when I was obese. So no. I don't think I'm healthy, I know I'm a darn sight healthier than I was nearly 4 stone ago. " Well done. Love to hear success stories | |||

"This kind of fuzzy logic doesn’t help anyone, it’s the sort of thing obese people use to justify eating what they like. The fact is, if you eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly, which is what we need to do to stay as healthy as possible, you’re not going to be fat.

"You're slim? Think again! Do you know your (unseen) fat distribution? Science and research informs us that a fat person can be healthy and a slim person can be unhealthy. " So..... would I be better off putting on 4 stone because I'm slim and i *might* be unhealthy? Do you think i might grow into a health fat man, rather than a possibly unhealthy slim man if I let my healthy diet go to shit? Should I step away from vegetables, salad, olive oil and oily fish. And move towards Greggs and doughnuts ? Today, my total level of cholesterol was measured at 3. How much healthier will i become when I'm overweight? | |||

"Body size and build often don't play any major fact in illness. EG. My brother fell ill 3 yrs ago. He was slim, ate relatively healthily, drank a bottle of red wine a week, exercised by cycling 250 mls a week for fun, yet ended up having a triple heart bypass within 4 days of being found unconscious on a forest cycle track. Cause? An unknown excess cholesterol build up illness which blocked his arteries as the body couldn't expel it naturally. It is hereditary too, so I need yearly checks. I'm 63, weigh 15st, but used to be 25-26 st back in 2001. I could be 3st lighter but struggle with losing the weight. But my heart and other major organs are 100% healthy; I have never smoked nor d*unk alcohol. Yes, I am Diabetic T2 but that's well under control & my cholesterol at my last check up was 3.2 plus my BP is always spot on. My GP and his team accept me for what I am and work with me accordingly. In the words of the Senior Nurse, "she wished she'd more healthy 63 yr olds like me to have on their books!" Sometimes, how a person looks isn't always an exact story." You're agreeing with me | |||

"My mum smoked like a trooper and died just before her 87th birthday. A nephew of mine didn't smoke, was average build, played sport and died of a heart attack brought on by cholesterol in his heart aged 36. Doesn't seem fair does it. " Basing it on the research evidence, the cholesterol is the storing of lipids in the vascular system I mentioned earlier. We just don't know what is going on inside our bodies. | |||

"Im fat and I am intelligent enough to know thats not healthy, I worry at times that its becoming to acceptable to be fat these days. I need encouragement to loose weight not people giving me reasons for it to be ok to be fat. "We all come in shapes and sizes it defines who we are I've spent years worrying about weight even when I was 9 stone I thought I was fat. I've had a few health problems but always considered myself to be happy weight is now 12 stone and it shot up to 15 at 1 time. We as women will probably always worry about weight. | |||
