| 757038 | 2009-03-18 20:40:00 | I just dont know why obese people dont do something about their condition. Its gunna take around 20 yrs of their life, Its so easy all they gotta do is regulate how much food goes in mouth and exercise. Calories out should be more than calories in. Never saw piccies of fat Jap pows. I got a driver (hes a nice guy) but he is mega obese all he does at the yard is eat. The bus looks likes its driven by a pear when he is on the wheel. I keep saying to him I hope you dont get a heart attack while you are driving a load of school kids because Ill lose my run. He says nah boss its sweet as. |

| 757039 | 2009-03-18 20:55:00 | I agree totally with Digby. There was a program on TV a while ago, on thursday nights, think it was called half ton hospital or something like that. Seeing people like that frankly makes me sick. If anyone allows themselves to get that fat they have serious problems, and in NZ we end up paying for it. Now thats people who are morbidly obese. Were not talking about someone who has a beer belly or a bit of flab. The stuff that the majority of grossly obese people eat really makes you wonder why on earth they do that to themselves. Us paying for Aucklands roads is one thing, but I dont think the tax payer ever ought to be footing the healthcare bills for that sort of thing. |

It's not out of kindness or concern - that much is clear. The taxpayer pays for lots of things - including the people who are thin but who have health problems and heart attacks too. |

| 757045 | 2009-03-19 03:21:00 | Obviously it's not easy being thin, there is the expense of all that halo polish. Actually it isn't easy being thin but for other reasons, judging by my wife's experience. People seemed to have no difficulty saying to her "Good grief, aren't you thin?"; "Goodness, you look like you need a decent feed?"; etc etc etc ad nauseum. People seem to feel that they can say whatever they like if you are thin, when they would never dare to say "Good grief, aren't you fat?" etc. Once or twice wouldn't matter so much - it is the endless repetition from all sorts of people who should know better that was the killer. |

| 757046 | 2009-03-19 03:26:00 | On another matter, the last time I went to my doctor, he suggested (quite courteously) that my health might improve if I lost a few kilos. Sad to say, since then he has been seriously ill in hospital. He is about the same age as me, and has always had a very slim figure. Hmmm.... I recall a Rumpole episode where he was being given a really hard time by his wife and his thin lipped Calvinist Scot GP, trying to get him to give up Thames Embankment Red, small cheroots, and fried food... By the end of the episode the doctor had shuffled off this mortal coil and Rumpole was released from gastronomical bondage. I suppose it was fiction, though with John Mortimer as the author it could have been autobiographical. |
