"I have a friend in her early fifties who is almost wheelchair bound due to rheumatoid and ostero arthritis. She is heavily overweight but a mixture of being incapable of doing much exercise and the medication means it's just crept up over the years. Yes she probably does overeat a bit and some of the wrong things but most of us can work that off, she can't. There's the effect on mood too as I'm sure some days it just gets her down. No one should fat shame, being thin does not mean you're happy. Wondering though Mrs D, the guy you're talking about, does he live in a small town where everyone knows each other or perhaps the people in these shops know him well now and care about him and it's tough love - they maybe even offer him support if you see what I mean???? " Think it was a fairly small town. The guy seemed very happy from the little I saw, so in his case it obviously worked out for the best. | |||

"Unless the guy specifically told the takeaways not to serve him it really is fat shaming and bullying. Would these same premises not serve the local jakes because it's doing them harm? I think not." Not sure what the jakes comment has to do with eating takeaways but on the same vein, pubs are told not to serve someone if they are visibly too d*unk! So is it not the same that if someone is clinical obese, surely the takeaway has to say sorry pal but you're not getting the 4 king rib suppers! | |||

I’ve seen some towns where those that gamble to much can choose to be banned from the bookies of the town . If it’s their choice to be banned fine if it’s imposed by health professionals fair enough forced by others wouldn’t be fair really . ( I wouldn’t like to be forced to stop dressing ) | |||

" I read it that your local chippy/Chinese takeaways were going to tell the jakes that they're no getting a supper because they're oot thur faces But yes I agree off licences etc shouldn't serve the jakes, unfortunately they'll just do what I did when I was 14 and get a grown up to get it | |||

"....right....keep it civil first of all! Watching breakfast tele this morning, saw a guy being interviewed who was obese and has lost half his body weight. He was basically banned from entering any take away or fast food place in his town and "fat shamed" into losing weight. Thoughts? Is a cold, hard boot up the arse the best solution or is this over looking the real reason some people find themselves over weight. I personally think it's not a one shoe fits all kinda scenario and whilst some may respond well to being shamed, others will understandably feel even worse about themselves. " I don’t think anyone’s going to respond well to shaming The worlds changing so much and so much food is available to us now and many people go well over the top but we need to do something to help people that are at a crisis point now | |||

"Speaking personally Id love it if this happened to me, I keep trying to lose weight but give in to temptation far to easily. But in this case it was wrong. Shaming someone is wrong, But I think that there is a diffrence between shaming and trying to support someone. But getting that right sometimes can be tricky. Mr " The guy in question agreed to it | |||

"I've been losing weight slowly I'm between 17.5 and 18 stone, I'll admit I caused a lot of my issues by working night-shift and boredom eating but I'm getting there. I wasn't shamed as such but I had a relationship where I was told I was unattractive and nobody would want me. Past photos are what shames me I can't even look at them because of how big I was even though people thought I was cute I still hate myself from then and can't believe I weighed 25 stone at one time I do need a new wardrobe though lol too many clothes falling off me now. " Well done on your weight loss... amazing results | |||

Diets are only a short term fix" thats all well and good but a lot of people are like me and hate fruit n veg, I found that cutting down on snacks and drinking sugar free drinks helped a lot, I haven't had a takeaway for about 4 weeks and even that is now a special treat. something that a lot of people seem to do is confuse hunger for thirst, I started having a drink when I felt those hunger pangs and most of the time it has done the trick | |||

"I am still pretty pissed off that McDonalds stopped selling toffee sundaes due to high sugar content. " if 20 yes ago someone said there will be a tax if you chose to have sugar it would have been laughed about with claims of that would never happen where did we go wrong.....my opinion we forgot the govt do our bidding not the govt rules us | |||

"I wish society would understand that someone else's weight is nothing to do with them. There are many reasons for weight gain that don't relate to eating too much and not moving enough, and their opinion is unasked for and unwanted. And if their weight is to do with their diet, so what? How does that impact anyone else, especially complete strangers? Conversely, telling slim people to eat more isn't helpful either, some simply just may not be able to put on weight due to natural metabolism, or it could be a diet issue. Again, no one's business but theirs. There's far too much shaming of people on a daily basis as it is, whether its weight or something else. At the end of the day, everyone else should just mind their own." | |||
