Ok, maybe not you but have at look at the attached link and let us know what you think. Only a short article but do you think it sends the correct message? one of the pictures in the article sums the message up very well; a shopping bag full of leisure gear in one hand and a tray of chips in the other. Rather than just accepting the request for larger clothing wouldn’t it be better to educate fans, especially the younger ones, about the benefits of exercising and eating well. The people in question already have an interest in exercising (they are fans of a sport) so why not educate them to understand the benefits. What’s the alternative? the new large size clothing becomes the norm? We can already see the effects on health of being over-weight so instead of accepting requests like this why don’t we try change the thinking behind it; get more people exercising, educate more people on healthier eating and show them how to lead a healthier life.
Don’t just talk about it, do something about it and get more active.
