Comment on Nearly a third of adults in England live with obesity – Obesity is now more common than high blood pressure in the UK, and nearly 3 times as common as smoking

Lost some weight recently and then when I mentioned planning to lose more to a doctor she said not to bother as I am already better than most people around here. BMI was still middle of overweight at the time. Down 12kg now, a few more would be nice.

Really weird for a doctor to talk like that. Obesity is more or less human health public enemy number one these days, feels crazy to be like “yeah nah you need to be more complacent”

12KG is a lot! I’ve recently lost 6KG and I had to saw off a limb! Nice work on improving your health 😁
