Move north and increase the skinny population up here.
I have to say though, you would probably find it difficult to live up north as they are friendly people and you seem to be a bit pig-ignorant.
You wouldn't fit in - so stay down south and sip your warm beer and jellied eels with your own kind.

Smoking and overeating are killing the country. Ban cigarettes-if dogs killed as many people, they'd be banned in a flash! And then bring back rationing so you physically cannot acquire the amount of food in the first place. After a couple of years you can see who is still fat and either treat them or prosecute them accordingly. It won't happen though. Too much money to be made from taxes on tobacco in this country and fast food profit margins are too big.

Do not presume that anything needs to be done at all. Lifestyle is a personal choice. Us smokers know precisely what we're doing to ourselves, 'cos we got millions of Nannies repeating the Mantra at us. so do the fatties and the alkies and the acid-heads.
We've heard it all before, we are at a saturation level of education on these topics. Any further or continued efforts to preach the healthy lifestyle to us is hissing in the wind.

have to agree with phlodgey lol.. You cant really say that even if it maybe close to the truth.
People get in this state because of society and government boredom and the **** supermarkets are selling/ indian restaurants chinese chip shops etc. i say tell them to reduce the fat salt content or we ban foods high in fat/salt/cholesterol. Also reduce the amount of alcohol percentage in beer wines spirits.. sooo much sugar in beer some people drink like 25 pints a day! that 4 days worth of sugar that turns to fat. and thats without eating anything,,,

would this be the north as far as Scotland - you know - the country that has banned smoking in ALL public places. Nope - cant be - because I live there, dont smoke, eat an extremely healthy diet - same as the rest of my family and most of my friends. I also have a high tolerance for English bigots - and they say the Scots are anti-English - ever wonder the reason for that?

Cut their benefits? - Not as mean as it sounds. When I'm poor, I still eat the same food but less of it.
YOu only get fat because you eat more than your body needs. I don't know about what the North is though. We're just as fat down here.
