Yes, but I fail to see the relevance of my suspension to this thread. Keep swinging though, champ. Maybe you'll land something that'll stick.
In other news, are we living in an obesogenic environment?

cutting tax on anything that helps people get fit and active might be a start.
After 9 years and nearly 7,000 posts, you expected something else from this forum? You're still here so obviously don't object too strenuously.
That said, there are people in this topic debating the merits of the policy, with reasoning. You didn't do any of that. Care to join in the discussion yourself?
If that's just a word we're using now for "generally less active, more convenience-based lifestyle", then yes. But it's all opt-in. Nothing stopping people from eating healthy food and getting a bit of activity.
Except laziness (sorry elmarko

best thing slimming clubs paid for my unhealthy food companies.
I'm down with the water melon diet.
lol sugar content.
I'm sure it's not as bad for you as processed sugar but still you can eat as much as you want ?

I had no idea watermelon's nutritional info was off the scale like this.
Again, this proves my point exactly and I will be using this watermelon example when slating Weight Watchers to everyone who believes in it
I would advocate Intermittent Fasting following more of a paleo diet if and when I lose weight (after bulking) but this is slowly going off topic.
Anyways. Good idea but lazy approach.

It's probably not even the worst fruit with regards to sugar content and weight
bare in mind that chart is based on one big ass water melon.
I don't think I've ever seen one 15 inches long weighing 4,500g in this country but even just 100g of watermelon is 6g of sugar in only 30 calories
You might as well just mix water and sugar and eat that? I doubt water melon is very filling either.

That whiskey. That suspension. That GD.
RDA of carbs is supposed to be 130g according to google.
the sugar in a water melon is probably all fructose
Oh right. I thought the carbs RDA was about 300g. But if it's that much lower, yeah, 15g is pretty significant.
swimming lessons would be good for them.
I see weight watchers as a waste of time, people will likely have to attend but not bother actually trying just so they can get a medical procedure instead. it just looks like money going to private companies for no reason at all when the people doing it are only there because they have to give it a go before they get a gastric band or whatever
Agree with both.
Disagree that we should pay for people to go swimming. Exercise is free.
Yes, but it's often more than that. They need to want to lose weight more than they want/feel they need to eat as a 'solution' to their other problems. Comfort eating is a very powerful compulsion, which those who have never suffered such a compulsion rarely understand.
As such maybe they could consider classes that teach people how to take more control over stressful aspects of their lives, how to be comfortable with their own self worth (rather than just pretending to be), and how to identify their triggers and redirect them to something more constructive than eating.
