Troll of a woman has been spreading her toxic opinions and charging people €1,000s to be treated in her "weight loss clinics" in Ireland for years.

Chris was so impressive and presented a totally clear argument. The opposit view lacked scientific substance

Drunk people should be fined, fat people (self inflicted) should have separate health insurance. Drug users imprisoned. Diet and exercise works

What about people that injure themselves through drinking, or drugs? Or any form of accident through their own actions?

My healthy shop costs over £130 per week. That hits all my vitamin, fibre, protein and calcium targets. There isn't a single junk food in my basket.

If you’re overweight and ask NHS for help with losing weight, they won’t help. They let you become OBESE before they help you. Insane! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Such a slippery slope, people do all sorts of things that are unhealthy, obese people are just an easy target

Barely anyone that’s overweight is so because of ‘a lack of education’. We (especially poor people) live in obesegenic environment

Also the drug is actually for people with type 2 diabetes and the weight loss is a plus… but the media haven’t reported on that bit!

Eat how you like. Pay premium for your lifestyle. if you don't improve you don't get NHS treatment. very simple. it's called personal responsibility

Obesity goes hand in hand with the general lack of personal responsibility of a large proportion of the population

People need to be able to afford healthy food, the time to cook it, and we need to break the chokehold of UPF producing companies on our food market

Drugs aren’t along term answer but for someone who can’t control diet through medical reasons it helps! But the private hospitals have brought them…

The answer is NO. Obese folks shouldn't have to pay more. But they should have to pay full price for quick-fix obesity drugs.

So now suddenly taking meds for the rest of your life is “unsustainable”?? Tell that to the 5 year old diabetics…

When you’re living on a pittance you eat cheaply. Cheap food is low quality, high fat, high carb. That’s what’s causing obesity.
