If a fatty can't take care of itself, how the fuck do you expect it to take care of anything else? Child, born or unborn? You can't trust these things with a fish, much less a pregnancy.

Agree...it would eat the fish as soon as it had some handy garlic butter sauce.

And it waiting that long is a best case scenario.

You can lead a fat to salad, but you can't make it think.

Much less a whole country. My favorite question that fat candidates never get asked: "if you can't take care of yourself, how can you run a country?"

"What are you going to do about obesity..." appears to be a more popular question but I don't like it because it presumes that problems are fixed by expanding government and creating bureaucracies. It presumes that it is the job of the state to intervene in everything bad.

The HAES movement has these women covered.

Wait. Do you mean--that if you're unhealthy as shit and get pregnant you're more likely to have severe complications?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?

Big shock, ham fucks.

"The health behaviours of pregnant women with very severe obesity are not known..."

They can't put their fork down. There. Now you know. Now use the $500,000 for the study for something more useful to the human race.

These high-risk women represent a group to target for education about health behaviours prior to and during pregnancy.

Seeing as they're probably into FA, that's not going to be possible:

“While obese individuals need to reduce their caloric intake and increase their physical activity, many others must play a role to help these individuals,” Dr. Jeffrey Koplan, the CDC’s director, was quoted in a press release. “Health care providers must counsel their obese patients; workplaces must offer healthy food choices in their cafeterias and provide opportunities for employees to be physically active on-site; schools must offer more physical education that encourages lifelong physical activity; urban policy makers must provide more sidewalks, bike paths, and other alternatives to cars; and parents need to reduce their children’s TV and computer time and encourage outdoor play. In general, restoring physical activity to our daily routines is critical.”

There isn’t a single statement in the above paragraph that NAAFA would sign off on. Telling people to reduce their caloric intake presumes that obese people overeat, which NAAFA disputes; health care providers shouldn’t pester their obese patients to lose weight, since being fat isn’t bad for you, according to NAAFA; fat people have a right to eat the foods they enjoy and thin employers and friends shouldn’t be wavin’ apples under their noses; telling people they can lose weight by getting out of their cars or “restoring physical activity to [their] daily routines,” presumes that fat people aren’t already active, and fat people are just as active as thin people, NAAFA argues. Just look at all the fat women at the convention today—here it wasn’t even ten o’clock and they’d already raised their arms up over their heads! Three times!

Also very low circulating levels of essential micro nutrients. These fatties are literally starving themselves while killing themselves with food.
