Twinkies & Soda + GameBoy & Sofa = Fat.

That's a little oversimplified, though... I believe we have discussed here before that there are some who have certain medical conditions that make it difficult to lose weight. Weight gain is also a side effect of some necessary medications. So not everyone who is overweight is that way because they're lazy.

It used to be, McDonalds was a treat, maybe once a week. And that's no big deal. A healthy person can eat a Big Mac & fries once in awhile without any detriment to the diet. Part of the problem is that we all seem to be in a hurry now and fast food is so accessible. We don't take time to eat, or pay attention to what we're eating. We just wolf it down.

Food is good. It is to be enjoyed, savored, shared with friends and family - not merely inhaled.
