Report: "US Out of Shape"

Shocking article in the Washington Post regarding the fatness of the Unites States. According to the Post, "Individuals with poor fitness are at markedly higher rate of dying [...] We should be very concerned about this."

Further, "This really points out that the low level of physical activity in our population is leading to a lot of kids and adults having low fitness levels, and those low fitness levels are related to a lot of bad outcomes," said James O. Hill of the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver. "We haven't been able to communicate to the public what a crisis this is. It's scary. Maybe this will be a wake-up call."

This is truly amazing. Who knew Americans were doing this to themselves? Well, keep checking out site and we'll keep you up to date on important topics like this!

Welcome. This blog is designed to free your mind and share opinions that may be a bit controversial. Let's get right to it!

Today's thought:

It isn't fair that overweight people are judged by the media. I saw some pretty girls put on fat suits today and it reminded me how judgmental and harsh society can be.

Well, gosh, I guess it's true: You have to love yourself before anyone else will love you!

Remember, Don't Worry, Be Happy!
