British men among fattest in Europe !

The study, into the rise of heart and lung disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes, ranked UK men as the third fattest in Europe, with 67.8 per cent of males 15 or over either overweight or obese.
Only Greece (77.5 per cent) and Malta (73.3 per cent) are fatter.

Globally, British men are the 21st fattest of 192 countries while our women fare much better, at the 51st fattest. However, contrary to the lean 'Crocodile Dundee' image Australian men like to portray, they are significantly fatter than their British cousins. More than three in four (75.7 per cent) of Australian men are overweight or obese, WHO reported.

Kick the carbs and ask your Doctor, will getting off my arse be good for me. Go lowcarb and get an hour of modest exercise i.e. walking in a day.

You know it makes sense, why fight it. Eddie
