No Elvis fan? Not fat? That's too much. I find it quite hard to believe. But if they want to reduce the number of bike accidents or bui's on the road, they should take fat off the list. lol.

I am also amazed at this list, this is dictatorship! What happens if you get the certificate and then become fat? Do they take it off you?
Octahedron, do you have an obesity problem in Europe, we do here in Australia, especially with children.
It looks like they want robotic citizens over there, people that do as they are told, earn wages, pay tax and stay at home.
What does the general population say about this?

Why is there such a problem with obesity? Mankind has gotten along fairly well for a long time and now, suddenly, the majority of the population is way overweight! I, too, am overweight. I've tried every diet. The doctor was alarmed when my diet was 600 calories a day and I was gaining 2-3 pounds a week! How can that be possible?
Sure, there are some people that just plain eat too much and don't move, but I don't see this in the majority of cases. I see people that eat only when they can't stand the hunger any longer and still gaining weight. And I also know people that eat 2 or 3 meals to my one and are skinny as zippers!
WTF is going on here? I'm convinced it has to be something else besides will power. Maybe something in the food supply causing metabolic problems.
What do the rest of you think?

Itââ¬â¢s what they put in processed foods. Food manufactures use chemicals to fatten people up because they eat more. Itââ¬â¢s all about profits.

Rose, you might have a thyroid problem. Go check it out with the doc if you hadn't.

Why is there such a problem with obesity?
Lets just think of some of the reasons........... These are just thoughts and may be different with others, please consult a dr, and batteries not included!
Being obese slows you down. It can make you less active. Ive always heard for many many years that it insulates you, that you use it to hide or cover up feelings or emotions or such, but if it is to hide you it also exposes more Of You. The more obese you may be the less you want to do and are more tired. The less you do the less you want to do. My thought is if I cant be at the weight i want to be then I do not have control of my life. Who controls me? Does food control me? I cant go excersize if im over weight. Im over weight because im too tired. Why should I lose weight i will just gain it again.... If I lose weight then maybe people will like me better? If i lose weight then I might be too attractive to others and lose myself. If I lose weight then I would have to work on keeping it off. Ive tried to lose weight but cant. Just one more piece of pie.........

Gertrude Rose.....This is not uncommon. I've heard it many times. Someone once suggested there are certain programming techniques put into people that cause illness (could be obesity too) when progress is being made in their de-programming. It is designed to make one stop focusing and working hard to progress. The programs were disigned to stay in place. Kind of sends one in circles so it is difficult to get out.: Work hard, make progress, feel ill (what's the use syndrome), get thrown back in.
Sounds pretty cruel. Well, no one said those who designed or implanted these things were nice.
