The good person must be in huge amount.

Diss, you must be fat

Isn't Australia competing for the fat title?

Everything increases the chances of getting cancer.

Diss, it isn't the likelihood of you getting seriously ill that is the problem - it is the high cost if you do. If you were to contract cancer tomorrow it would cost your health insurance a lot of money.

low risk * high cost = medium insurance costs

$20 a month seems rather cheap to me.

65% of Americans are fat eh? Looks like MaccyDs should watch out for more legal cases along the lines of "McDonalds are evil and made me fat when I ate 3 of their Big Macs for lunch each day this year!"

I would say I'm fat, but it's more likely related to slow metabolism. I eat right (perhaps maybe a few snacks like fruit, or maybe one day some chips (crisps to Brits) between meals), and I play soccer, cricket, gridiron and rugby.

My parents were "fat", so it's just slow metabolism...

Judging from your avatar, a 'slow metabolism' is a little hard to believe...

Yes it is - but I have lost 10 Kilos (22 pounds or one and a half stone) over the past few months.

My secret? Eat a hearty lunch after 2pm each day and then only have a very light meal for dinner, say toast or breakfast cereal. Drink lots of tea.

I've gone from over 90 kilos to around 80 (or around 14 stone/200 pounds) to 80 kilos (under 12 and a half stone/180 pounds)

Either that or I have cancer

1lb a week is the safe limit for losing weight - that requires you to burn 3500 calories more than what you intake.

That means you can safely lose a stone in weight every 3 mths. So for most Americans to get to normal weight would take a couple of years

Drink lots of tea.

Actually, water would be better.

Drinking anything tends to take a mild hunger away.

I have the opposite problem - I couldn't be bothered eating. I weigh 55kgs, exactly the same weight as my fiance who is a hell of a lot shorter than I am. Alas.

But now that she cooks for me (rather than me cooking for me) I eat much more than I used to, and am gaining weight. Or so I hope. But since this post has not much at all to do with the topic, I now return you to your regular programming...

If YOU want to lose weight, I suggest you stop eating that donut you disgusting fat body!
Let's go with 3 pounds per week. Forget about eating little, just eat correctly. Come to me fat camp, where we will sweat it off, KILL those invading fat cells.
5km run every morning, 2 hour HARD workout including mostly cardio workout. And that's just the first week, before we discover weight lifting, swimming and wrestling! I WILL KILL YOU! Then I will give you birth again, you're different person. IT WILL HURT! I'll promise sweat, tears and pain, you'll cry for help but it's not coming dude! So SUCK IT UP, because it's time to make you a better person.

[Pekka]

and if you bring up excuses like candy bars to my camp, I'm gonna personally kick your ass! If you start with 'it's my genes' crap, YOU WILL GET ANOTHER BEATING!
If you're not up to it, then you'll just have to be fat forever, and the chicks won't like you!

[Bereta_Eder]

I was never fat

[Pekka]

paiktis, but you are not cut and ripped either, now are you? WE MAKE YOU MEAN, LEAN KILLING MACHINE! So.. SHUT UP and get your butt moving right now!
