[QUOTE="pavlovsdog, post: 1889783, member: 132394"] Thanks for the article. In my view, there is still the emphasis on individuals being blamed for being overweight and the wider context of why people overeat continues to be ignored. The NHS specialist weight management programmes were good but most of them stopped due to funding issues - the usual short sighted approach by the NHS, not wanting to invest in an intensive programme but prepared to keep people on medication for life, perform bariatric surgery etc. I also feel food production/provision companies must take some responsibility because its not in their interest for people to eat more healthy fresh foods, which would affect profits [/QUOTE]
