The Feeders...

Apparently the problem, if you are overweight, isn't you, it's 'The Feeders'. Good. That helps doesn't it? Er, actually it doesn't. You're still fat.
You may at this point be wondering what or who 'The Feeders' are?
Collectively, they are the companies who make millions out of fatty, sugary and salty food. They are kings in the nutrient wasteland, they are monarchs of mono sodium glutamate, the shining knights of sugar.
I'm not going to name names (I'm not stupid, these corporations have very large budgets and even bigger lawyers) but let's assume we're talking about that quaint 'Scottish' restaurant with the arches of gold and with them any burger or chicken franchise you care to mention. I'm talking about fast fat food and with it all the ice creams and chocolatey side orders that make up a meal that could, calorifically speaking, keep an army on it's feet for days, albeit giving them that horrific afternoon sugar dip.
They've got great marketing all these 'Feeders'. They're on every corner,in every town and they've even infiltrated the odd hospital. Fast food is ubiquitous, but you know what? It ain't compulsory!
I agree that the ease in which everyone can buy cheap bad food is a big issue. Every supermarket has freezers full of food whose components have been so chemically altered they are barely fit for purpose, but you have a choice.
It's sometimes easy to forget that choice, but it's there and the more we exercise it, the more we grow in our mental stature and health.
Know that you can walk past the greasy fast food outlet. Know that you can use natural ingredients and make soups and salads and casseroles and a hundred other dishes that promote health. During the war years this country was healthier than it's ever been in the intervening years because people ate simple healthy food.
If 'The Feeders' are the problem then everyone would be obese and they are not. The problem as I see it is that some people have lost their self belief that they can do something about their obesity issues. This for me is the tragedy.
Allow a person to see that they are in charge, that they have the strength of character, intellect and dynamism to change any aspect of their lives, including their size and shape and amazing things happen.
There will always be temptation. There will always an easy way and a better way and there will always be personal choice.
