7 pages..this reminds me of that napolean Dynamo movie thread.
What i think is this..people over think and worry to much. some folks are decicated to their spouses but could care less about their intake..as others indulge in alcohol,tabbaco products and wine and dine women that they didn't meet at the alter. but yet we have folks that observe their vows but let their bad intake of american fast food chains consume them
i think we all have vices.
also-i believe in this..when the big man in the sky pulls up your dog tag #...there is nothing you can do about that.
i believe in destiny and if hamburgers and french fries are a main source of death and killing in america...A. i don't believe it B.all the power to the consumer as long as he or she doesn't suffer.
I'm not suggesting that anyone should sit in a astrovan of a fast food parking lot monday thru sunday morning noon and night..but we have to pleasure ourselves in some way shape or form..
for some people its food...bad food
J. Eric Oliver, among others, disputes the claims of an obesity epidemic. "Undoubtedly, we are gaining weight, but it's another thing to call this an obesity epidemic," said the University of Chicago political science professor and former health policy scholar at Yale.
Oliver said the basis for measuring obesity, the BMI tables, is flawed. The Body Mass Index is the weight of a person relative to their height.
An athlete may be overweight based on the BMI tables, but that weight is due to muscle mass and not necessarily body fat, Oliver argues in his book, "Fat Politics: The Real Story Behind America's Obesity Epidemic."
"The BMI tables are the predominant measure because it is easy to conduct epidemiological studies by calling someone on the phone and asking them how tall they are and how much they weigh," he said. "It is so much easier to measure [that] than things like diet, exercise, family history or another measure.
Oliver suggests in his book that the talk of an obesity epidemic is driven in part by the diet and pharmaceutical industries, and a subconscious discrimination in society against fatness.

I don't know whether or not I agree with you, and I won't even bother as none of what you said applies to this discussion. Once again, we're not talking about the types of food you eat. We're talking about the harmful artificial substances that are in the foods you eat. It is quite possible to eat a giant hamburger loaded with cheese and bacon and whatever you want on it with a large box of fries and a giant Coke without consuming a gram of trans fatty acid or high fructose corn syrup.
