Please, please tell me that’s been photoshopped.

Nope, see my post no. 20, I really think I recognize that woman, at least I used to see someone who looked like that in the stores in my area. I haven’t seen her around recently though. I have actually seen the woman I remember pushing a grocery cart with her belly loaded into the cart.
I used to be amazed that she could actually walk.

Heck, she’s thinner than Zoe Bell, a native kiwi actress ( she was the stunt driver/car surfer in Grindhouse).

I think it’s a real picture of the woman BUT the Code Pink wording and the protest signs are photoshopped.

Fat is one thing but when your belly hangs straight down and nearly touches the floor that is something else! I did a double take when I saw that picture, it sure looks like someone I have seen more than once before.

Good for New Zealand. I’m sick of fatsos. I wish the U.S. was as discriminating in many ways. Unfortunately we are happy to let in MS-13 serial killers and MRSA-infected illegals as long as the Chamber of Commerce can keep its slave labor.

We read from the text that the New Zealand emigration service has a demand for complete medical examination before entry.

I wonder if this applies to women clad in the burka? I understand that at least one muslim country thinks heavyset women are indicative of a husbands propensity to have them live well.

Ever the enthusiast on English names and their origin, I used my genealogy web-site. The name Trezize is almost unique. It comes from Cornwall, England. Only six of that name are entered out of 93 million entries.

Second thoughts here, if the New Zealanders get the happy couple to get with it, let there be some more Trezizes. They may die out. (seriously).

Are you sure?



Ms. Bell looks quite a bit leaner than the woman the story is about and definitely the woman in post 2.

The husband is none too slim either. He must have marketable skills as an offset.

I’m not going to knock NZ for decisions regarding who can immigrate and who can’t. At least they have standards.

Methinks, old Richie may be very clever.

LOL. On one hand, I suppose that they have the right to choose who does and doesn’t come into their country. On the other hand, BMI can be very misleading - a healthy person who’s a bit bulked up could easily qualify as overweight or obese while being in better physical shape than the average person. Better measures would be, say, the person’s body fat percentage, or some other test that doesn’t just deal with weight alone.

Which leads to the question: Would a person whose BMI was unhealthily low also be denied immigration entry?
