    To be honest, I'd say they had battled with weight for so long that one day they just think 'Fcuk it' and try to be happy and confident with what they have! These people want to change and want to have a healthier life and body.

    It can be really draining thinking daily, several times daily, about weight, what fits/doesn't fit, changing outfits a few times before you are happy with what you see etc. I have zero will power. I complain I complain I complain, and I wish for a size 12 wardrobe (!!!!) but I cannot stick to healthy eating. Maybe i've deeper rooted problems, I don't know.

    I'll get off the stage now! :o

    But also, the rugby player would have a high muscle capacity, whereas she doesn't. Her weight is largely made up of fat. A rugby person wouldn't.

    The BMI categories aren't accurate for athletes.

    well this is my point!! obviously a rugby player can be obese also, I was only giving a general example of how an active person is less liable to be classified as obese.

    Yeah I heard that on the radio during the week... But that exception, where the BMI does not distinguish between muscle and fat for rugby players, weightlifters etc etc.... However, I dont think that woman plays rugby...

    Not really. Any athletic person KNOWS that the BMI calculations won't apply to them in the same way.

    and for the rest of us Average Joes, what do I care about anyone else's measurements?!

    Thinking (wrongly) that Tommy Bowe (:D) is overweight or obese doesn't change my figures!!!!!

    It certainly is. Very hard to break bad habits of a lifetime. Especially living at home. If he moved out & had to cook etc himself he might have some chance. He won't learn about nutrition etc if she does everything for him.

    Huh, you are going off on your own trail of thought. I was simply informing the op that obesity isn't measured by weight itself, but by impact of weight. I just gave the general example/analogy that an active person may be less liable to be classified obese, even if he/she is twice the weight of an unactive person. Less fat, more muscles, better blood flow, stronger lungs etc.

    Having their kids on is exploitative, they have no choice, what if they want it all removed.

    Maybe when they are older and actually damaged by the process, we can be certain of the negative effects it's had on them.. But until then, we'll plough on..
