Supersize vs Superskinny

[Geri]

She was wider than she was tall. Seriously.

Yes, I saw her. I don't think her death certificate will say she died of fatness though.

 

[Geri]

Are you trying to tell me people who are morbidly obese - morbidly being a key word here - who can't walk, can't breathe and whose poor little hearts are working overtime pumping blood round their huge bodies enjoy the same life expectancy as the rest of us?

No, I asked what she was dying of because I didn't see that part of the programme, and you gave me a facetious answer. I genuinely want to know what they said.

It would be great if it did though.

It's how I'd like to go...

 

[Pip]

A quick look at google suggests that her death certificate might well state obesity, with any contributing factors also being cited.

Wowie you learn something new each day don't you?

Wish I'd seen it. I love laughing at the big fatties and skinny wretches.

You're pathetic.

 

[Pip]

You're pathetic.

If you say so Geri.

And FFS stop getting your knickers in such a twist that you can't see that comment for what it is. These people - both extremes - are KILLING THEMSELVES. It makes me incredibly angry and incredibly sad. It's not funny that there's something deeply, deeply wrong somewhere, but when they sit there going "boohoo I don't understand why I'm 7 stone/30 stone when I have a healthy diet of a diet coke for lunch/6000 calories a day" I do guffaw.

 

[pengaleng]

nah, these programmes are fucking fantastic.

I like to make retching noises when they show all the flabs, especially like if they are fat an can only wear a sheet an you see em trying to manouvre.

my friend told me once they watched one where this massive woman lost a remote in her flabby flaps and it like got absorbed by her body, I retched at that too.

man I LOVE freak tv.

I don't know if it affects men in the same way, but being undernourished is a major contributing factor to poor bone density. Even what you do and eat in your teens affects your bone heath later in life.
In the here and now though, it leaves you more susceptible to infections and is bad for you emotionally and cognitively.

 

[kained&able]

not malnurished i eat well.

do get ill quite a lot mind, but i'm fairly sure that glandulafevers fault.

I'm just watching this, the peoples relationship with food is fascinating.

The guy clearly has a problem with food, well as does the woman but in other ways.

Its worrying that their habits will rub off on their kids.

I find it amazing viewing though.

 

[liberty]

Agreed it is a terrible program the skinny guy needed to be taught about food that was not beige
