The Chawners, haven't worked in 11 years, claim their weight is a hereditary condition and the money they receive is insufficient to live on.
Mr Chawner said: "What we get barely covers the bills and puts food on the table. It's not our fault we can't work. We deserve more."
The family claim to spend £50 a week on food and consume 3,000 calories each a day. The recommended maximum intake is 2,000 for women and 2,500 for men.
"We have cereal for breakfast, bacon butties for lunch and microwave pies with mashed potato or chips for dinner," Mrs Chawner told Closer magazine.

I don't understand why people don't reply to e-mail or Facebook messages. My job involves getting in contact with lots of people, and for some reason people think that if they are contacted (by me, anyway) in an e-mail or Facebook message, they don't need to respond. I don't understand how people can do that. It befuddles me.

Why More Drilling Is Not The Solution We Need. Let's be clear about this - we cannot drill our way out of our energy situation. There is no way we can actually drill enough holes in the earth to meet all of our current and future energy needs, (we only have 3-5% of all the oil in the world under our soil) so why is that pretty much the only thing this administration is concentrating on? Because the oil companies own many of our government officials. photo by David Plotzki

I saw this on gizmodo today, read the details at the philips website, and thought what the heck.
A few years back (that's actually painful to say) I was using Nike+ on a daily basis and I'd pretty much become a runner. And I loved it. After relocating to Seattle and injuring my back, my workout routine has long ago blown out the window and so, here I am, oblong, out of shape, and with large-radius rounded corners. I'm thinking since Nike+ worked well for me, perhaps this will too.
At the moment the back thing isn't bothering me much at all. The problem is all the things that I enjoyed doing, I enjoyed like 40lbs ago. The last thing I want to do is get injured right off the bat.
And speaking of off the bat, I need help picking up the bat and swinging the bat. I've had two years of sitting on my butt in pain and, I've found, sitting on my butt without pain is quite pleasurable and a difficult habit to break.
