    Being unhealthy increases the chance of illnesses, so I'm going to have to disagree with you there

    Not all illness it doesn’t, many illnesses have **** all to do with weight or lifestyle, including circa 60% of all cancers.

    agreed - but as i pointed out just above that is a separate issue in many cases to becoming sick/ill in the first place .

    it's impossible to rule out illness but you increase your chances by being healthy.

    I've just eaten an egg salad with a pint of water followed by an orange. This reduces my cholesterol and this reduces the risk of heart attacks and the vitamin c bolsters my immune system to help fight of illness.

    I'm not saying even fit healthy people don't get unlucky, but if you're fat and lazy I don't want to here a sob story because you've not looked after yourself that's all.

    You’re still missing the point. Yes being healthy is sensible and reduces your risks.

    But assuming that every person with a chronic condition who is also overweight somehow brought illness upon themselves is a completely false premise.

    A poor diet will increase the risk of illness, this is why so may people are fat bastards, they eat to much processed crap and not enough fresh (inc frozen) veg
