I just discovered today via the radio that the fattest man in the world lives in Ipswitch,England at a whopping 70 stone.
a new term has been made for him; 'super-obese' apparently.

and also apparently he consumes 30,000 calories a day and has sunday roasts for snacks. it's due t physiological condition he has but still, bloody hell. Not been out of bed for 8 years

go figure. there's your random fact for today

You mean it's not an American?! *gasp*
lol (terrible but I always hear that other places around the world believe that the US has the most obesity rate... or that the majority are obese. ^^)

According to my friends who I've been to America you're either extremely skinny or terrifyingly fat. (form looking at crowds or whatever) and the American definition of obese is a whole different level from the British definition.
A generalisation obviously, but that's the idea XD

According to this study, it's not true.

It's a couple of years old, but it should still be about the same.

Totally not surprised to see Ethiopia down at the bottom of that list.

I've watched some of those programs on "The Fattest Man" or "One Ton Woman" and other programs with titles like that.

Anyone ever notice that they always either seem extremely depressed or pretty happy, like "Yeah, I'm fat and I have bed sores but so what? I eat delicious food, lots and lots of it."

Cool a list! I'm not surprised to be honest. ^_^ Maybe it's b/c we have lots of McDonalds other countries think the majority is big. ^^"
