U.S. falls behind on exercise, gets fatter

we just had a 6+ page thread on Canes. what do you expect?

:shockedface:

Americans, let's face it: We've been a spoiled country for a long time.
Do you know what the number one health risk in America is?
Obesity. They say we're in the middle of an obesity epidemic.
An epidemic like it is polio. Like we'll be telling our grand kids about it one day.
The Great Obesity Epidemic of 2004.
"How'd you get through it grandpa?"
"Oh, it was horrible Johnny, there was cheesecake and pork chops everywhere."

Nobody knows why were getting fatter? Look at our lifestyle.
I'll sit at a drive thru.
I'll sit there behind fifteen other cars instead of getting up to make the eight foot walk to the totally empty counter.
Everything is mega meal, super sized. Want biggie fries, super sized, want to go large.
You want to have thirty burgers for a nickel you fat mother fricker. There's room in the bag. Take it!
Want a 55 gallon drum of Coke with that? It's only three more cents.

I read this thread while finishing off a honey bun.

My older and younger brother are both overweight.

lol I just look fantastic.

I solely blame the states of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. We're all lazy people that love food and beer too much to give a crap about being healthy.
