Just been reading your post. It's true that the NHS does not give treatment to people who affect the public health systems economy. There are plenty of people, with regards to "Severe clinical obesity" that have changed their lives around by loosing weight the best way; working it off. I can't say for the picture above! But it CAN BE DONE without surgery. The NHS also has issues with smokers as their needs to be a balance in the system. If people want to destroy themselves arrogantly, and then they expect to be treated? "BMI is an overrate and far from accurate measurement used in the industry - look at the majority of professional Rugby players who have "abnormal BMI" results and yet they are fit as a fiddle." - Arm-Bar.co.uk Arm-Bar.co.uk Hi
