haven't watched the show but it sounds like they lost weight while they were being shamed for being fat and gained it all back after they left the show

it's proof fat shaming works and obesity thrives in the absence of fat shaming


Or proof that fat shaming doesn't work long term. Can't really call it effective if it needs a lifecoach following you around to make it feasible.

Now that this thread has reached silly proportions, does anyone need more proof that fat shaming isn't effective than the horrible success rates of the Biggest Loser show?

All they do is fat shame those people and half of them gain the weight back immediately, another 25% gain it back slowly.


the centuries old sh*t is hard to wash away, and keeps on coming more

a good move by the nhs, they've decided to restrict obese peoples access to surgery until they lose weight as part of cost saving efforts

The decision by an NHS body to restrict obese patients’ access to elective surgery until they lose weight is comparable with racial or religious discrimination, a surgeon has said.

The Vale of York clinical commissioning group (CCG) will make people wait for up to a year for treatment for non-life-threatening conditions such as hip and knee replacements if their body mass index is 30 or higher.

The group said it had taken the decision because it was the “best way of achieving maximum value from the limited resources available”.

interesting, and good to know

also good that others take action against obese too

but in my opinion, this will only make the obese more miserable. i'm glad, not sorry

no need, they will exterminate themselves. the Bible says: You shall not sin with thy belly.

small percentage will be rescued

The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) warned us about the dangers and health hazards of overeating.

He advised us to fill our stomach with 1/3 food, 1/3 for drink, and 1/3 for air.
