A bit of fat on you is healthy. Life is about optimising what's important to you. You could be a lot fatter and compromise on your lifespan. You don't get to eat your cake and not be fat.

I would suggest you eat a variety of foods and take vitamin and mineral supplements. One of the most serious problems is keeping your joints working. Take supplements that help with that except calcium pills which will kill your heart.

The OP asked for some advice. We give some advice. You give some advice and then you say the above which not only trashes everything everyone said and everything ever written on the Internet, it trashes what you said yourself.

My advice when I'm not livid at your stupidity would be to learn as much as possible FROM THE INTERNET about the specific medical problem so you are well armed when duelling with the medical profession.

The NHS have so many failure modes that one really needs to be quite an expect before putting one of their minions in a position of dominance over your health. It can literally be as bad as Dr Shipman bumping you off in his surgery or as honest as then genuinely failing because of lack of skill and knowledge and the system being in place to cover up the failure.

The actual method of conventional medicine is one of intervention. Of forcing the result that they want. This is one way of doing things and is necessary and often effective as a last resort. An example being chemotherapy. What they are actively ignorant about is preventative medicine. They think that statins are preventative medicine, that's how bad they are at it.

Generally the body can sort itself out but it needs the right nutrients to do so. Doctors do know this and often their most effective treatment is simply to provide some relief whilst nature fixes the actual problem. An example of this would be to provide some painkillers and get them to come back in a week or two. It would have got better without the painkillers but feeling better is often helpful to getting better.

Another problem with going to the doctor is it's not in their business interest to get you better but to match you up with a treatment that their industry approves of. Purely from a consumer rights aspect you should know your stuff.

Once had them try and sell us statins not because of high cholesterol but because she was due to have high cholesterol statistically.

HanSelo,

Since you're referring to the NHS you're clearly full of shit. You probably work for the bastards or something. Stop promoting your NHS snake oil.

Upload so FUPA pictures. Also known as the Fat Pad.

It's normal for people to gain 10lbs in a month but quite something to do that for several months.

Here's a thought. Acid reflux might not be too much acid but not enough. When you digest you need really strong acid, then once it's done it's job it's neutralised.

With acid reflux your acid is too weak so takes ages to digest and ends up frothing up and coming up your throat.

When most acid medications are designed to weaken the already weak acid it's temporarily solving the problem whilst making it worse in the long run.

Solution is to add acid to your food such as vinegar. Don't eat anything which might neutralise the acid when you're digesting. However between meals it would be a good idea to take bicarbonate of soda but obviously only when you've digested the food in your stomach.

What would Rebok say?

Nah they are fairly lite on that sort of thing. Some women had a baby and bashed it's head in and set fire to it before burying it in her garden. Slap on the wrist.

Is the new server elasticated? Will it stretch as it fills up or is it baggy to begin with? Did the old server have stretchmarks?

Perfect, as long as you piss that doctor off and gain weight each month.
