'Inside every fat man there's a thin man trying to get out' - so the answer is simple = show an obese person a video of how to tease the thin person out with a cake and start all over again :-

Having spent a lot of time in Lincolnshire over the past year, I'd take issue that there are far more obese people in Boston than in the whole of the North East!

I blame it all on Brexit, and the Tories, and turning off the chimes on Big Ben.

I'll second that - the 'Remainers' turned to 'comfort' eating with the mind blowing Brexit talks and the final straw, turning Big Ben off their body clocks hadn't a clue when to stop eating comfort food.

We're only larger because we need stronger constitutions than the Southern Shandy Drinkers to enable us to survive in the wild and woolly North (and by 'North'  I don't mean bloody Manchester!).
