Just for you health? Just your health. You don't really need to worry Sir, your weight, the real concern, is fine, just that niggling detail of your health.
Surely the only reason my weight should even be a concern is BECAUSE it effects my health. Actually being heavy isn't really a problem to me at all, unless I'm planning on jumping really high, or walking on thin ice. If anything, heavy is an advantage, I'm less likely to be knocked over, or to float away, and in a flood situation, I'll be an asset to those around me. This eating thing should always be about my health rather than my weight, surely?
It's a bit of a worry that weight in itself has been demonised so much in our world that even trained medical professionals will make slips of the brain like that. No wonder teenage girls (and boys) are, well... being quite silly to say the least.
In other sad news, it seems a shame that newspaper promo shorthand has lead to phrases such as 'mum of four' causing the heart to sink immediately.
