Why do people, particularly women get so obsessive about dieting and want to lose weight all the time, particularly when as far as I can see they don't need to?  They’re always at it, counting the calories and trying a new diet when the old one doesn’t seem to work.

Women trying to lose weight

If you flip through any magazine aimed at women, which isn’t something I do regularly by the way; on practically every other page you have stuff like, slimming pills, fantastic claims about how to lose weight fast, new low calorie this, low fat the other.  It’s enough to make you feel overweight just looking at it all!  No wonder women are always starting a new diet tomorrow. Is it the male population that is to blame for all this, or is it the super slim models that they see on the pages advertising the diet?

Trying to lose weight? You don't have to!

The people that come up with all these diets must be raking in an absolute fortune and all because women, and perhaps some men feel a bit insecure and think they are overweight.  Yes it’s true, some people are overweight but I’m willing to bet that a fair number of the people who regularly do the weight watchers and Atkins thing are probably not excessively overweight.  They might be a bit curvy in places, but there’s nothing wrong with a full figure as long as you eat healthily and take regular exercise.

Who says that men like stick insects anyway?  Lose weight if you really must, but when I see these skinny models in the magazines - the only thing I want to do to them feed them up a bit!  We like you the way you are and you look fine, really, honestly.  Otherwise we would say something like “stop eating those damn chocolates because you’re getting fat”; you don’t have to look like a supermodel because that isn’t exactly normal anyway!

The worst thing you can do is go on a diet you just need to eat healthy food and move a lot more ,If you eat diet foods as soon as you stop you put more weight on.Don't read the adverts although the Sugar Solution book is really good my sister went down 4 dress sizes 2 years ago and she still looks great.

Blame the diet companies for this. Also,woman bring it upon themselves as many women I have known will get married and totally let themselves go and put on 20 lbs or more! Take resposibilty for your own actions and don't allow yourselves to get out of control with your weight!

Because we live in a patriarchy.

typical that 'women losing weight should be compulsory especially up north cos they also need to sort out their ugly mugs there is not enough fit birds in this country'

Simon xmas- typical that you would be a man who says this! It's because of men with views like you that you get women and young girls killing theirselves with anorexia and bulimia and the rest all turn homosexual. You want to grow up you pathetic excuse for a man..... fact is that obesity isn't just a female problem and it's definitely not set out by which end of the country you live in.......as for your views on girls in the north, tell you what you wouldn't last ten minutes with a girl from Manchester because you would have your head pulled off by now!

If one has an inderactive thyroid they are usually placed on thyroxine which means the hormone will still work in the body and there is no excuse for being obese.
There are actually very few medical conditions that cause obesity
