MALAWIANS LIVING ABROAD AND OBESITY

You bring out an important point, though lifestyle is a big contribution to our weight, there is so many other factors that affect weight gain, for example, genetics, health problems,child birth etc...

The fact of the matter is, despite your weight, everyone should exercise for health reasons. so
whether we are a little big, or skinny...
we all need to spend sometime in the gym...

I wouldn't go around calling people fat, Especially women. I think you could have addressed this issue in a different way, though i am in shape, i know that
a lot of women struggles with the weight issue all there lives. This is such a sensitive issue and i would advice you to address it as such......you can't call people fat...
that is very insulting.

Thanks alot Plato for a very witty rejoinder to my entry.Herewith my corrigenda to the foregoing,mamely I did not make a deliberate reference to women as "being fat" in a pejorative or disrespectful notion.You have done well to highlight that and bring the same to the fore though PLATO and I do take it back.
I have not dwelt on the dynamics of weight-gains and all that, due to space constraints.All I wanted to do, in the interim, was raise the general pertinent point of unhealthy lifestyles that culminate into "weight gain" , for lack of a proper word as it were.
I did not say that if you are skinny then you are healthy.What I did say is that we should all commit to be fit for there is no excuse not to be , considering where we live.
Need I say more?

Perhaps they get TOO excited when they see and have MacDonalds, KFC etc for the first time! But on the real, man, you gotta watch what you eat and how you eat it.It's not just about trying to see how much you can stuff into yourself but you also have to make sure that whatever yo're putting inside you does more good than bad.When you reach obesity, it's time to pause and start all over again in a better and healthier way! You forget obessity usually leads to heart disorders, type 2 diabetes, anginas etc? Wake up people!!
