My bf just been to a week holiday to visit his son living abroad. And he is complaining a lot to me that he sat with this overweight woman for 4 hours:NoNo: and he can't blame Ryan air if they charge overweight people.
I understand that some people whose overweight bec of medical condition but i am only pointing out those people whose overweight bec they don't have a discipline on what they put on their mouth, one thing is they put themselves on risk as well as not thinking their love ones too bec being overweight can have a heart attack anytime:NoNo: and all sorts of problem.


Just a thought bec most airline charge us on our overweight luggage so do you think its right to charge overweight people on plane too?

I am not being mean to fat/overweight people.:ARsurrender:

UMMMM.... Yes and no...,Yes you have a valid point but to be totally fair perhaps have a total weight limit of human weight and luggage I am not the most slim of robots but luggage wise I am well skinny... but when going from Bangkok, Manila, Cebu... I think every Philippine person was on the border of being very over weight in the luggage department, I almost expected goats, chickens and people hanging on the outsides of the plane....Phil...

I watched a pinay in early march at the Cathay check-in desk at heathrow weigh a bag,obviously waaaayyy to heavy,so she took items from that bag,put them into one of her other suitcases(she had 3)weighed the original bag,found it was the ideal weight then weighed the bag she had transfered the items into,uh-oh obviously overweight again,so she removed items from the second bag and placed them in the third bag then weighed the second bag....................what a pantomime :doh I think your right irobot :icon_lol:

My Sweetheart was slightly overweight before, I was worried that later on he might have a heart problem and etc... So what I did I convinced him to buy an exercise bike and I challenge him every night riding and cycling on the exercise bike while watching TV. If I did about 25Km he has to do the same or more and until it became our habits. I also encouraged to ride on bike every weekend especially when the weather is good. We cycle together around the village.
I love cooking and he loves everything I cooked. So I realized that I have to blame myself that I feed him too much so what I did I changed our diet. No more rice especially in the morning, coz I used to make " tapsilog" or " Longsilog" ( sausage, fried egg and fried rice). I just serve him fruits and cereal in the morning, then I make him green salad and tuna sandwich and yogurt for his lunch box. For dinner I avoid red meat instead I cook grilled fish and then steamed vegetable.
I think,if they are already overweight we can not changed them but we can help them to minimize the intake of fatty foods and carbohydrates.
The other tricks I did was, I told him if he will put on more weight , NO more S_x :icon_lol::icon_lol: and it happend he did not have it for 2 weeks, so he really did a work-out until he lost 2 stones. :icon_lol::icon_lol:
Now, he is grateful that I helped him to changed his eating habits and he became very active. He feels so good about himself and he feels more confident now.:)

I like this idea... not :Sex::Sex::Sex:if he doesn't lose weight... I'll tell my fiancee that... :xxgrinning--00xx3:

I've been saying that for years but it would be against the EU Human Rights Act :doh

They weight allowance should include person+luggage, although I do notice that the checkin folk tend to be more relaxed on limits with smaller folk, so maybe an unwritten rule.

lol I've already learnt that when eating out to always find out what she fancies eating in case I want it as well. Then I order something else as I know I'll be eating half of hers anyway! :)

Dreading it when she finally gets to the UK as I know you're spot on fella! I've seen the size of the breakfasts she cooks! It's usually bigger than anything I've ever prepared myself, and I never usually know when enough is enough! :D

I am not being mean to fat/overweight people.:ARsurrender:

Can't blame those BIG BRITONS including my family here lols I onced critisized them why they eat too much food. I can see they really enjoys eating and have money to buy those. Their budget for food is shocking expensive. I'm the only small and slim in this house as I really discipline myself to watch every food I eat. I love veggies and fish not to become big but I cannot resist chocolates and loose my self-discipline. My doctor said don't eat chocolates if I want my lump not to become large. But chocolates for me is irresistible:doh
Some filipina wives I have noticed, they becoming big too, maybe they're infected with hubby eating too much:D or maybe they eat their hubbies left -over.:omg:

But you will notice here Cheeze, life span here is long. Even if they are ill, they still live very long.



I think every Philippine person was on the border of being very over weight in the luggage department, I almost expected goats, chickens and people hanging on the outsides of the plane....Phil...

I agree:doh
I remember when I was in Holland, I stayed there for 3 months and met members of filipino association. Weeks before I left them, they asked me what pasalubong (presence) I want to bring with my family. I said chocolates or soap. A week before I left, my friend said she weigh my luggage and it's already excess of 15 kls. It's full of chockies and soap etc.
I told my hubby that I have problem w/ this and he gave me his fishing vest with 4 pockets outside and 4 hidden pockets inside. I bought buggy pants with 6 pockets too.
Gulf Air weigh my luggage and it was 15 kilos excess, I need to put all excess to my pockets but still I excess of 7 kilos and I can't almost walk because I was carrying heavy loads. I have bagpack, still spacious but not allowed to add more. So I need to dump 7 kilos of soap or 7 kilos of chocolates. I was too confused what to dump but preferred soap to dump.
While walking to board the plane, I feel I'm carrying the world. 10 kilos my bagpack which still allowed during that time and 8 kilos from my pockets. I stopped walking and moved all chockies from my pockets to my bagpack because I look like a michellin and couldn't walk. But after putting them all together,
I can't move on because of heavy load at my back! But only few yards walk and will be soon board the plane so I walked very slow. Stop walk stop walk Ahhhh at long last I made it. :D
But I still have my stop over at Bahrain so start walking again. Luckily my ticket upgraded into business class. But stewardess gave me a plastic bag with some stuffs inside. 2 boxes of Belgian Chocolates, 1 Bahrain Formula 1 T-shirt and 1 pair jogging pants and t-shirt courtesy of Gulf Air. I was thinking how can I carry all those things as I feel ill already. I feel I had broken shoulder.
When I arrived home, I stayed in bed for two days, hubby called and wanting for a chat. He said he has good news to me and asked how was my journey. I said I'm ill just tell me the good news. He said he will come to Pinas soon to marry me. I said that's great but please don't forget my chocolates. He said bloody hell, what kind of woman I'm going to marry?

I agree, some women have this hormonal condition, its more of a thyroid problem. Those with HYPOthyroid have the tendency to gain even if they are not consuming excessive food. Where as those with HYPERthryroid doesn't gain that much no matter how much they eat.

I think size does not matter it is the whole personality and image counts.
Looking good is useless if you have a bad image and personality, it is the the beauty from the inside that matter most. :)




Very true!
You have handsome hubby tamad naman

As a saying goes in Pinas, Ang kagandahan panlabas ay naglalaho pag dating ng panahon.
Subali't ang kagandahang panloob ay mananatili. (Outside beauty will be vanished in time but inner beauty will still remain)

What i'm saying is, if 2 people eat thesame amount but the other one have hypothyroid and the other hyperthyroid, chances are , the one with hypothyroid gains more weight because of slow metabolism due to the thyroid condition where as the one with hyperthyroid is the opposite.

There is no doubt, the ONLY way one can put on weight is as a result of what they eat and drink.

Of course some people burn up more calories than others and some gain weight on the same amount of food and some don’t. It’s an individual thing.

Looking toward exercise as a way to counteract the excess food is pointless. Having trained for, and run several marathons I can assure you the amount one can burn by exercise is in reality negligible. Exercise helps tone the body and maintain better physique but don’t think it will make you slim whilst you over consume.

Most of my life I maintained the weight level I wanted without caring what I ate or drank. Over the past few years with increasing age, that has not been so. I was trying for at least 6 months to loose weight by eating what I considered was very little, I stopped drinking alcohol and kept up my fitness prog. I was hungry most of the time.

Three months ago, seeing how a friend had lost weight, I reluctantly went to a weight loss group. It was the type where there are green days, eat vegetables/pasta/potatoes/rice/fruit etc. as much as you like, but controlled amounts of meat/fish etc, or red days, eat as much meat/fish etc but controlled veg, pasta, rice, potatoes etc. For me the green days are best, lots of rice and pasta, which is also great for my wife, as of course rice for every, meal is no problem! I lost one and a half stone (9 kgms) in 8 weeks. I am never hungry now. I also lost 5 inches off my 44" waist.

I am now 69, 5`8” and weigh 77kgm (12 stone) which I believe is my best weight.

i am trying to loose weight i am not considered as obese but i am a bit overweight:NoNo: can't resist chocs. right now i am doing sit ups every morning hope it helps coz its quite a hardwork.

my husband's prob is not being overweight being too tall ( nearly 6'5") for a very uncomfy sit on plane.
