This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The British government is texting fat blokes they should avoid kebabs.

It's working.

Have they released any results from that trial? I read about it being implemented but didn't see any follow up.

I think ultimately the government would need to allow the mass prescription of ozempic or something to tackle the obesity crisis here. For many overweight people they are fighting against their environment with genes which would have served them better in an era before an unlimited food supply was guaranteed.

The weight loss stuff is already showing signs of serious side effects. Just yesterday i read an article on here about it, iirc it causes some sort of chronic digestive condition in a significant portion of users that cannot be reversed even if they stop using the substance. Sorry I dont have the link right now.
