Putting On Weight Even More…
Metro, 24th June 2010
Most obese people would rather put on weight even more in order to qualify for the free weight-loss surgery than follow a diet and start a healthy life-style, recent studies show.
About 1200 British women took part in the survey. 32% of them admitted that they would put on weight deliberately to be eligible for the weight-loss surgery. 28% of the women said they were depressed as they couldn’t undergo the surgery.
60% of the women who took part in the survey said they would love to have a cosmetic surgery if it was funded by the government.
Only 6% of women were happy with the way they looked and 14% said they would never consider any form of cosmetic surgery.
On the other hand, 22% of women would ask the NHS for a funded breast lift after breast feeding. 43% of mothers would request NHS surgery for their children if they were bullied because of their looks.
