[size=14pt]Just like drugs, sex, po-no-gr-ap-hy, alcohol and cigarette with its other variables such as smoking Igbo OR Indian Hemp, excessive and compulsive eating is an addiction that should be frowned upon. I have decided that any fat pastor, Imam, telling me about the virtues of Christianity OR Islam should go and first get rid of their food addiction.

Food is for the sole purpose of survival, when gluttony encroaches into this universal instinct of man,  that is when it becomes a problem, although some people may have a medical conditions that made them have excessive weight, to these groups of individuals accept my sincere apologies, you are exempted, but others who are on a un-controllable binge get rid of your addiction OR better still using a very popular biblical saying remove that log of wood in your own eyes first before thinking of removing the log of wood in your neighbors or your congregations eyes.

This is my take on fat preachers, [/size]

[size=14pt]Excessive fat causes the following diseases[/size].


1. [b]Diabetes which is a disorder where the pancreas is not producing enough or sometimes not any insulin. Diabetes can lead to a whole host of other medical issues and obesity is one of the main causes due to the body having excess glucose due to overeating.


2. Cancer has many different forms and types and many of them could be prevented with more attention to eating healthy and avoiding obesity.


3. Congestive Heart Failure is a condition in which the heart can’t pump enough blood to the body’s other organs.


4. Enlarged Heart is another heart condition where the muscle of the heart become larger due to being overworked which naturally happens if you are overweight.


5. Pulmonary Embolism is a sometimes fatal blockage of an artery. Being overweight causes most people to reduce activity and after time lack of activity can result in an embolism.


6. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is when cysts develop in your ovaries. These can burst causing even further problems.
7. Gastro esophageal Reflux Disease means that stomach acid and juices flow from the stomach back up into the esophagus. It is common in overweight people.

11. Urinary Incontinence is the inability to control ones urine and is frequently associated with obesity, weak bladder and pelvic floor muscles


12. Chronic Renal Failure meaning the kidneys fail to work is a much greater risk to those that are overweight or obese.


13. Lymph edema is a condition that occurs from a damaged or dysfunctional lymphatic system sometimes caused by people suffering from obesity actually crushing the lymphatics.


14. Cellulitis is clinically a spreading infection involving both the dermis and subcutaneous tissues due poor lymph flow caused by obesity.


15. Stroke is a lack of blood supply as the body has to work harder when you are obese.

16. Pickwickian Syndrome is mainly characterized by sleep apnea due to obesity placing an excessive load on the pulmonary system.

17. Depression is a condition where a person feels extremely sad all the time. Even to the point of being suicidal. This can be greatly enhanced for someone that has a weight problem.


18. Osteoarthritis is a clinical syndrome in which low-grade inflammation results in pain in the joints, caused by abnormal wearing of the cartilage oftentimes due to obesity.


19. Gout occurs when uric acid accumulates in the blood. Nerve endings then become irritated causing extreme pain made worse by carrying extra weight.
