The Anonymous Widower

And Now It’s Super Obesity!

The BBC has two health stories today.  One is about the fact that the NHS is in crisis and the other about super-obesity.

Are they by any chance related?

I recently had a visit to a hospital, where under pressure of clinic space, we had the consultation in a consulting room fitted out for the super obese.

It was extremely threatening.  I was sitting in a chair, where three of me could have sat and the couch was like the bench, you’d get in a garage, where heavy trucks would be serviced.

I was surprised that the BBC didn’t put a warning before the obesity report, like they do for flash photography.

Jenny Hill has just said obesity will cost up £60billion a year in a few years. I hope that figure is wrong, as the total NHS budget for 2011-2012 is £120billion a year.
