Obesity An obstacle
Obese persons are referred to as "flesh mountains" or "road rollers". They are often ridiculed and even scorned at. Those who know that obese people lack good health would, however, pity such persons,
A true incident which rook place in a small village, describes how obesity prevented a mother from .saving her child from getting crushed under a speeding truck. The child was playing near the road leading to the highway, when the mother noticed a speeding truck heading directly towards the child, in its attempt to avoid other oncoming traffic. Terrified at the prospect of the child getting crushed, she rushed to save the child but her huge body slowed down her reflexes and movements. She reached the child when it was too late.
It is a common sight to see a stout person boarding an overcrowded bus puffing and panting, making his way through the crowd causing untold discomfort to the other passengers. Some may be bold to remark about the poverty in the country where some people do not get even two square meals a day, whereas some eat themselves to bursting point. Some others offer unso¬licited advice to the conductor to charge the stout man for two persons in view of his bulk.
