Do you not think that part of the so called obese problem in this country is down to food manufacturers putting excess fat in their products to make the weight up.
School kids, instead of running around at break times, are standing still staring at their phone screen
The ridiculous tax on sugary drinks = just another unfair tax on everyone, I hate diet version of drinks, spare a thought for skinny people who want to put a bit of weight on, it will cost them more now.
Artificial sweeteners probably do more harm than sugar?
Tax on Smoking is different, that harms everyone who or whatever you are.
20 years ago, I was 16 stone and had a much smaller waist than I have now weighing 14 stone.
20 years ago I was eating mountains of chocolate bars and drinking gallons of normal Coke (24 can boxes) weekly, now, virtually no chocolate bars (easy since Cadbury's was ruined) and no Coke.
My transformation in weight and shape is purely down to activity and exercise, we lost our dog 2 years ago so my long daily walks stopped and about 8 years ago I lost interest in physical exercise, like chip ups and weight lifting etc, but trying to get back into that now.
