Hey guys! I recommend you watching this video! I speaks about the weight of our nation, children especially, and how we may end up. It also goes into very specific details which could change someone's life in a heartbeat. I absolutely loved it, so I hope at least one person watches even 10 minutes of it!
You are not alone, we are in this together :)

    Worthwhile cause, like many, ie. stop smoking programs. If one thinks either or both will cease, well....good luck. The funniest was, lets get the gov't involved. Want things done right? Forget gov't, notorious for muckin things.

    I made it to 3:28 of video. To me, it was nothing but lame excuses for why obese....:don't crave broccoli, but big-macs" as one, :laugh:.

    Another, "don't wanna be fat"...well, be pro-active. Another was "fix it/make it a priority"....good luck.

    CDC..68% are obese, 18% of children obese. Be nice I reckon' if all was perfect and we were all at a healthy weight, but one might as well sit in a chair at Xmas and wait to see Santa.

    One last, I too was obese :smile: . I managed to junk food myself to 199lbs from my avg. of low 160's, my wake up call. Now I am back to where I should be. That is why I refer to what I heard and some of what I've read, a little anyway, as nothing but "lame". Not my issue I'm sure I'm insensitive, but.....
