Daily Mail providing fatties with excuses for being Obese

From the Daily Mail:

As obesity levels continue their inexorable rise, the Government’s official weight-loss message is still focused on four words: eat less, move more.

But if you are one of the estimated 20 per cent of people who are on a permanent diet, or one of the 40 per cent of men and 30 per cent of women who regularly exercise and still can’t seem to lose weight, it could be very tempting to start to wonder whether perhaps there’s something else going on.

In fact, there are many common illnesses, lifestyle habits, even medications that — without you realising it — could be scuppering your best weight-loss intentions.

Here, the experts reveal the tell-tale symptoms that show the real reason you’re fat.

First, look for the description that best matches your experience, and discover what the problem could be... Click HERE to read the Daily Mail's list of excuses for being fat.

Childhood Obesity: Michigan to Require BMI Reports on Children

Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder plans to require doctors to tell state health officials where the children they treat fall on body mass indexes that can indicate if they're overweight or obese.

The move would help track a growing obesity problem while opening the way for doctors to be more proactive in offering advice. Full story HERE

Nursing Times: Obesity in children is a ticking time bomb

From the Nursing Times:

Nurse lecturer Florence Mitchell on why we urgently need evidence-based interventions to tackle obesity in children

If we already think we have problems meeting care expectations, we must tackle obesity in children before it becomes too serious for us to manage. To put this problem into context, recent research published in The Lancet reports that by the year 2030, 26 million people living in the UK could be suffering from obesity.

Fat children have been depicted in literature throughout the ages, from the fat boy in The Pickwick Papers and Billy Bunter to characters in the Nancy Drew and Sweet Valley High books. They used to stand out because they were different, but this is no longer the case.

Research evidence estimates there are 22 million overweight children worldwide; 33% of these are aged 2-10. This poses serious consequences for these children and society, with major risks for long-term conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, stroke and certain cancers.

The epidemic has reached a level where people find it difficult to identify when a child is overweight, even incorrectly believing their children have a healthy weight. Parents often rationalise excess weight as “puppy fat” rather than facing facts and are appalled when the body mass index of their child is recorded. Full story HERE

Let Them Eat Carbon - A New Book By Matthew Sinclair at Amazon

Ordinary people are paying a ruinous price for the attempts politicians make to control greenhouse gas emissions. Climate change policies dramatically raise electricity bills; make it much more expensive to drive to work or fly on holiday; put manufacturing workers out of a job and sometimes even make your food more expensive. Climate change is big business. Much of the money so-called green policies cost us goes straight into the pockets of a bewildering range of special interests. Around the world companies are making billions out of the schemes governments have put in place saying they will curb global warming and protect us from the threat of climate change. There is little evidence that those policies are an efficient way to cut emissions. They simply do not represent good value, and the public are right to be sceptical. In Let Them Eat Carbon Matthew Sinclair looks at the myths perpetuated by the burgeoning climate change industry, examines the individual policies and the potentially disastrous targets being put into place by ambitious politicians, and proposes a more realistic alternative.
