Do You Know Your Waist

measurements. I watched an interesting programme on last evening, hosted by a Doctor, with Julia Bradbury and Phil Tufnell, and how people perceive their weight, trying to get them to reassess their thoughts on what food and drink they consume, and being overweight... Most of the blokes didn't get their waist measurements right, most off by quite a lot. I think the celebs that were also interviewed and did the various tests were quite shocked at the level of their obesity and problem, like diabetes..

i didn't say you did, i did however watch with incredulity at some of those including the celebs who took the tests, their reactions were surprising...
many decidedly obese. The doctors have been going on about this for a long while, the programme was trying to wake us up a bit to the dangers of being overweight, leading to a possible stroke, heart disease and diabetes..

Most Men wear their trousers/jeans under their beer belly, hence they fit into a size a lot smaller than if they wore them like Simon Cowell.
