I haven't seen a post on this subject so i decided to post it. What do you believe is the number one reason why obesity and/or child obesity are rising? What do you think this country can do to prevent increasing obesity? Do you believe with the advancement of technology to make things "easier" will have a direct effect on our obesity count?

my sister's sorta overweight... well not as much as some, and actually she isn't really "fat". but her self esteem is hurt because of it. it's weird how she turned out tso large when I'm actually very skinny. It has nothing to do with the parents, it's the kid. (although i'm lazier than her). I think it's how many seconds and thirds and fourths we take. i usually only have seconds, but my sister goes on sometimes to 5ths.
Also sitting around watching tv all the time... and being a couch potato. yes, i think it'll have an impact on the obesity count. with everything at our fingertips, humans forget about fitness, and they just sit there and let their fat grow. many people on cb can probably relate to the fact that once their butts are glued on the chair to the computer, it's hard to get up. so once we start, we hardly ever get excercise. i'm glad i go swimming a lot, it gets me sorta healthy... also it can be partly parents' faults, for buying kids more stuff and candy and fattening stuff. hm... my sister made my mom buy her lots of see's candies every time she has a violin lesson to motivate her to practice.. yes, the laziness is spreading to everyone.. i'm done |
