Obesity and overweightness in America

Nah you can get it at all costco's

The reason that American Coke has High Fructose Corn Syrup in it and not real sugar is because the Federal Government has placed high import tariffs on cane sugar, and there are not many places in the US where cane sugar can be grown. On the flip side they subsidize corn growers with taxpayer dollars to the tune of billions of dollars a year. So instead of sweet real sugar, we get gross processed corn that taste like syrup (well it is syrup). Thanks Feds!
 
even the mcdonalds in europe is different, and frankly i wouldnt eat at either but i guess if i had to choose, europe.

also what im noticing in a lot of foods is that when there is low fat, there is high sugar or sodium. both are agents to help you gain weight while sitting on your couch.

europeans eat healthier and i suspect they're more active. then again it depends where you are in europe.

americans drive their dogs to the park and then circle the park in their suv without picking up their dog shit. love it.

noticed theres less side walks in suburbs and new malls? think about it. who needs to walk.
 
this is one of the biggest problems in the US today. People do not understand how nutrition works. Low fat does not mean losing weight
 
It's not just America, it's everywhere! Australians are packing on punds as well. Lifestyle does play a huge part, as well as employment. I work at an IT firm that employs almost 1000 people. The majority of people drink coke and eat chips, cheese and gravy (or equivalent) for lunch. We do however, have a table tennis table so there are a few of us that play TT instead of eating crap on our breaks. Great way to break up the day and get 10-15 minutes exercise a few times a day.
 
I just dont get how people don't realize that they're fat. When they do realize, its never their fault of course. Stop f'ing eating crap and sitting on your butt doing nothing and go for a walk. I also hate when people make fun of fat people jogging. Atleast they're willing to do something about it. It's even worse when the person who says it is fat. I've always been a little chubby but I got a tramp and its all gone. Just do exercise. Its easy and fun. Go swimming maybe? Oh wait they're too "self conscience about their bodies" SHUT UP AND SUCK IT UP MAYBE IF YOU DID EXERCISE YOU WOULD GET LESS FAT The worst thing though is when they say its genetics. It pisses me off so much. I mean it may have something to do with it but you can still have an impact. WTF I heard a kid at my school who is 5' 3" 220 pounds say it was baby fat

W T F, he actually said he was fat because he still had babyfat. HES FOURTEEN YEARS OLD

/rant

Well I ran on a while about basically the same thing so yeah

Sparknotes: Fat people piss me off.
 
Im aware it has an impact but its not like they should sit on their ass feeling sorry for themselves. What are you doing out of the kitchen anyways? Jokes
 
i think it all comes down to the amount of food we eat. if overweight people would cut down on the portions their stomachs would eventually start shrinking and they would need less food to feel full.

they should also start eating more complex carbs which has a more lasting effect for being full. brown rice/oats.
