re: Why don’t you exercise?

I understand what it takes to raise kids. I have two and was the primary caregiver to both and a handicap sister on top of working a full time job with OT. In my mind I knew I had to stay healthy both mentally and physically. I not only did this for myself but my children and family. You can’t take care of your children from the grave.

Again, I've never said any of this is a good excuse I'm saying people can be overweight and not lazy.

But working out and living longer is an almost laughable comparison. Staying thin absolutely is important, but luck and genetics are just as important. Staying thin is not about going to the gym. Its about burning calories and eating well.

Everyone talking about working out, when 99% of the world that is skinny never works out. They simply walk most places they go and eat less calories than they burn by choice or because of lack of food.
