According to the Centers for
Disease Control, obesity is now the number-one health threat in the United
States.
At the American Dietetic
Association’s recent Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo in San Antonio,
a panel of health professionals and nutrition and fitness experts discussed the
growing obesity epidemic, which now affects more than 60 percent of Americans.
Restaurant industry experts said that consumers have a personal responsibility
for the foods they select to eat while dining out. They also said most
menus now offer healthier alternatives than in the past.
On the other hand, health-care
professionals said they are focused on the growing size of portions at
restaurants and on the food items offered.
Each of these is a potentially
contributing factor to the obesity epidemic. But when all is said and done a
healthful lifestyle, which includes regular physical activity with an eating
pattern chosen for variety, balance and moderation makes all the difference for
maintaining healthy weight.

It's kind of strange because the food quality and education level has been on the rise lately.
I think people are just getting lazier and lazier. You would think technology would free people up and provide more spare time but it is starting to piss me off when you look around at everybody driving in cars and texting.
One woman got caught in an intersection running a red light and she didn't stop texting even after she was surrounded by cars honking at her.
