Scuse my french but the Daily Mail is a pile of steaming :argh::massmoon::flamingmad::rant2::yuk:

Best used at the bottom of a cat litter tray...

 

[I will get there one day!]

I have just read the article - why did they see the need to show the picture of a band when the whole article was about bypass?!

It was the narrowminded and pathetic comments though under the article that really p*ssed me off!

Incidentally, the story about the 70 stone man is on the front page of the Sun today.

[Gail-michelle]

I wander if his mate Guy slater will be with him?

 

[POPPET]

He's not camera-shy!

 

[POPPET]

Just watched-he really does explain the importance & need for WLS so well

 

[gaelic girl]

i've just watched him too what a lovely man and a great advocate for the real understanding behind wls and the need for it xx

 

[gillabean]

He's going to do my op!!!

Hi

I saw it too, I think Mr Sommers really does empathise with people that are morbidly obese. He see's us as people with feelings and not just fat stupid blobs as a lot of people do. I don't know if Guy Slater or Shaw Sommers will be doing my op but I'm glad im in there hands.

Take Care

This is what Guy Slater says in the Sun about Obese people - we should all learn it verbatim and quote it at morons.

OBESITY is a psychological and physical disease. Many of my patients are driven to eat. Food is all they think about, 24 hours per day, and they are constantly hungry.
They turn to food as an emotional crutch - comfort eating makes them feel better. But it becomes a vicious cycle as they grow depressed by their appearance. Getting them healthy and working means they will pay taxes rather than claim benefit.

I am slightly concerned that he thinks all obese people dont work -
