In reply to wharfie with no idea. I DO NOT condone being fat as some acceptable evolutionary process. I was merely stating facts that people are becoming bigger.Australia now is one of the fattest countries on earth. That is because they have access to fatty and easy take away meals and never ending credit to pay for it. I admit that I am a big person but in no way do I condone the condition. That is why I am now eating healthy and exercising. Mental health or poor mental health is often a factor in people becoming obese. I read on an american airlines website that the americans were claiming that obesity is a disability and that is why airlines were loath to charge extra for fat people in case they were sued . PS. I have worked in the mental health and disability field for over 30 years and have seen massive improvements in the way disabled people are treated in public but there is still a long way to go.
