socially ostracizing and criticizing is a possible avenue. we've gone WAY the opposite way. shame has disappeared from our society and pride has been dissolved. the obesity shite is quite literally the icing on the cake

I've said this before, it should be approached the same way we approached the smoking issue.

Start as campaigns showing the health problems. Have people on commercials in hospital beds stating the diseases that destroyed their lives because they were overweight.

We do stuff like that for anorexia. It should be done for obesity as well.
