Re. the pic posted by ab...
Ugly friend syndrome really does work though doesn't it? Tell me that you don't think the one on the right looks slim (by comparison)..?
Just imagine them in a few items of animal print.
And would have to be fake - couldn't get a real skin to cover.0 -

Oh come on! Everyone knows that the obesity crisis is out of hand. Look around you- and if you are not obese, you will end up paying for it, so wise up! I am a northerner and Im staggered when I go back home to Manchester and environs how large people are! Waddling through the arndale centre with a bag of chips in thier hands! Come on people open your eyes :rotfl: Denial will not help great britain you know!
I couldnt believe my eyes on Sunday when I had a day out in london - where I live, and people had clearly come from far and wide for the mayors festival. ( in london Id say obesity is pretty rare to see in my view) it was like the floodgates had opened I could not believe the sight of say 15%-20% of a large crowd weere SERIOUSLY obese. at least size 18 women with thier blokes of the same size, jostling each other out of the way at the donut stalls!
Im scared about getting my figure out in a bikini and Im a size 10-12- i dont want to inflict my white not taut belly on other people.
OP i tihnk we come back to that same thing that we have talked about before- lack of shame.
I cant remember who always sayds it ( is it ONW?) but tshame used to fulfil; a very useful function, now thats gone, look what we are left with!
For the record I did not see obese nationals in
Malaysia
Japan
France
Sweden
Venezuela ( I was a size 10 then and boy I felt like the lardy one!)
I saw a few ( smaller minority than us in)
Spain
Ireland
Mexico
Dominican republic
grenada
I did see a lot of obese national in USA and Cuba. - Cuba you can unsderstand as pretty muc heverything is deep fried - USa, well we all know where we are going as we mimic them forever more.
:wall::beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
OP...you dont have to go all the way to Turkey to see lard.
There is plenty to be seen on your local high street both male and female though i must confess that i am more an aficionado of the female form..:)
Beauty is to be admired i say..tough of course being a perfect gentleman,i admire with discretion.
Now the funny thing is, when i am on hols in Europe, i do tend to find that cockney geezoh/souther voices are much more prevalent?
Perhaps it is the case that what is not usual for us is much more noticeable? Presmuably the OP is not from up North?
In any case,i would not deny anyone enjoying a well earned holiday.
The prevalence of lard has much to do with poor diet,excessive drinking and the lack of teaching about what used to be called home economics.
We are in the "ding ding" generation..(microwave)
Except me. I'd rather eat nothing than eat crap.0 -
how nice it must be to have never had a weight problem :rolleyes:0

When i go on holiday i don't notice everyone else and what they look like, I'm too busy enjoying myself to even care!
If you don't like what you see, don't look!Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty...0 -

Your a MAN? ...I was getting really feminine vibes off you as you were posting on a make-up thread before...
Anyway, i am aware there are a lot of overweight people in Britain...but there are more in America, so lets skit at them instead
