This is just fukkin' unreal..... Another bunch of wastes of oxygen...... I'm sorry, but "too fat to work or excersise", what a bunch of cr@p.....

 

Anyone remember Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks.....? BOTH of them were actually bigger than this lot, and BOTH of them made a living as professional WRESTLERS FFS..... :rolleyes:

 

 

How about conditional cash transfers? They can only receive a weekly check if they complete certain tasks, e.g. get a job, attend a gym, etc. It works pretty well in the developing world. Although people in poor countries lack something called ENTITLEMENT.

Isnt this the family of that girl who went on x-factor? :rolleyes:

 

I'm sure I saw it in the paper not long ago.

 

Fruit & veg expensive??? GET TO ALDI :D

There is a guy who works Checkouts at Morrisons in St Andrews who is far fatter than they are.

 

He works full time!!

 

They aren't too fat, just lazy.

AWFUL AWFUL FAMILY.

 

I say spend the benefit money on sending them to fat camp, hire out that Harvey guy who shouts a lot and abuses Rik Waller. There's NO excuse for taking disability benefit for a condition that you COULD but WON'T control.

So apparently healthy food is too expensive but MICROWAVABLE FOOD isn't? :blink: Take it from a former student, most of the time because of my lazyness I spent £3 or £4 on Ready Meals for each when I could have for example got some pasta for less than 50p, some sauce for it for 70p and some bacon, chopped veggies and stuff to put in it for around £2 and what makes that even more valuable for money is that I would have enough left over to do it again so technically I could eat dinner for around 60p WHEN I BOTHER TO MAKE IT MYSELF AND EAT PROPERLY. :rolleyes: Plus I found something which I really love doing and want to do as a career and even though I'm not having a good time trying to work towards just like everyone else I AM WORKING TOWARDS IT, YOU KNOW GETTING OFF MY F*CKING ARSE!

 

I think I made my feelings and my point clear with the capitals :D They're not even that fat anyway! The daughters look fatter then them to me!

"All that healthy food, like fruit and veg, is too expensive. We're fat because it's in our genes. Our whole family is overweight," she added.

 

oooo. Statements like that REALLY fukk me off ^^. Imo, it's bull$h!t. Their have been numerous research into a so called 'fat-gene', but it's crap imo. You may inherit genes from your parents that give you a bigger build/bigger stomoach to fill, but if you stuff your faces with junk then you're going to get fat. Simple as. The fact that they're already on benefits BECAUSE of their size is disgusting.

I agree, the "in our genes" bit is rather hard to believe. Hmm, surely the fact that it's in your family should spur you on to prevent it happening to you?

 

I know that through my dad's side of the family, at least 4 members have died of emphysema a smoking related illness. My late grandfather was a smoker and he died as a result of emphysema. My dad gave up smoking back in 1975 and I have never smoked. What I am trying to say, is because it's affected other members of your family is no excuse. You can do something about it to prevent something serious happening to you.

 

More relevant example, my late grandmother was overweight, so is my dad and so am I. Both my dad and I are tackling our weight. Motivation? Which of us is the slimmer of the week? Bit of a competitive edge to it and my grandfather (other side of the family from my late grandmother) is also in on the act.

 

I agree, they should show that they are doing something about their "incapacity", make an effort to recover. This family has to show that they are doing something to recover from their incapacity, such as a diet sheet and perhaps a gentle walk to begin with for exercise?
