It is exercise and eating correctly but in America we support people who are lazy and get fat. We give them food stamps, unemployment, health benefits and special parking (handicap) just because they stuff their faces with fattening food and sit around all day. Stop making it easy for them and that may make them change. this will never happen in America but maybe something like a narrow entrance way into fast food restaurants or any place that is desirable to go. Can't fit in the entrance then loose weight.<br /><br />James at <a href="http://www.nycbody.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.nycbody.com</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06925932461592547794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-22417361353847364082013-08-01T19:40:28.619-04:002013-08-01T19:40:28.619-04:00Tom allow me to suggest that you look at the quote...Tom allow me to suggest that you look at the quote from Jonah Goldberg againAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-9771443155484723962013-07-31T09:33:09.022-04:002013-07-31T09:33:09.022-04:00I should have continued: That since people are ki...I should have continued: That since people are killing themselves (on the installment plan) with food, and expecting/demanding that the government (taxpayers) to pay for their health care, the government (taxpayer) does have an interest in telling us what and how much to eat. Make sense? <br /><br />Sorry for the confusion!Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09847366462256039862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-77945328118740740402013-07-31T09:30:49.469-04:002013-07-31T09:30:49.469-04:00Jeff,

Being a native born Devil's Advocate, I'll ask you to consider this: We all want the right to eat what we want, as often as we want. When we do so, and suffer from the poor health that such behavior enables, we then demand the right to force taxpayers to pay for our poor judgement, which will continue unabated. See what I'm getting at?Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09847366462256039862noreply@blogger.com
